TAG

Logan was recently invited to have cake at my work, Tactical Assault Gear, for a co-workers birthday. He had a great time, (how could he not there was ice cream cake and hot cocoa for breakfast?!) and so did all the TAG employees. He entertained everyone!! And since Lo loves soldiers and everything military (and by military I mean guns) the boys thought it would be a blast to give him his own holster and gun. Please see the photo below of a very scary four year old boy...

But don't worry the gun is rubber (but honestly it looks amazingly real)

Camping at South Carlsbad

I just love Southern California! Logan and I are always looking for a good time camping and we have been lucky enough to camp at the beach in November with great weather and again in March! We had a great spot and we were lucky enough to have the Orliczkys come and join us.

Sweet friends at the beach

And rounding out a beautiful day with a beautiful fire.

St Paddy's Day!

Top o' the mornin to ya! Or as Logan likes to say "taco in the morning to you"!

Lucky Logan

Logan and Avery after they found all the goodies at the "end of the rainbow" that the Leprechaun left.






Two very cute and crazy kids chasing each other around the deck!

Ice Skating

Joy and Tatum decided to join Lo and I for a trip to the ice skating rink. Olympians we are not!! I think it will be a few more years before I attempt to brave the ice again. Be sure to check out my video below, it is a true show of just how fantastic Logan and I were during our couple skate routine...

Before we hit the ice...Be sure to check out Tatum's blog for her thoughts on our trip.

Showing off his moves! I asked Lo what he thought of our trip to the rink, his response:

"whoa...whooooaaa...whoaaaaa...whoa...and then I fell down...it was really slippery"

Is there anything more I can say?

And the Birthday Continues...

My sweet, sweet boy is now a very grown up 4 year old. We were lucky enough to celebrate Logan's birthday up at the Orliczkys' cozy cabin. And what better way to begin Logan's life as a 4 year old then with a heart shaped chocolate cake, made with love by God-mommy Nadine.

Lo blows out his four candles, it took several attempts, but they were finally all out.

These two were so cute the entire weekend, they played like little friends, having conversations and giggling. It was so fun to watch. If you want to see more of our weekend with Sylvie you will have to check out her blog too!

Thomas is known for making tunnels in the snow (for fun) outside the cabin. In fact I found a picture of a very young Thomas inside a tunnel just like this one that he built for Lo and Sylvie.

And of course nothing is better that a good afternoon sled. Here is my little daredevil heading down the hill all alone and loving every freaking minute of it!

And here we are together. I was way more scared than he was.

Happy Birthday little Man! And big thanks to Nadine, Thomas, Sylvie and pizza head for inviting us up to the cabin for a Valentines/birthday celebration.

Lo's Birthday

Logan Michael is now 4 years old!!

I know that every mother feels that time with her baby just flies by, but seriously how did he go from this tiny little person in the hospital...

To a big 4 year old who gets a BIKE for his birthday!!

There is lots of celebrating to do for this momentous occasion, and the fun has already started!!

First, Daddy and Granny planned a party for Logan where he got to decorate his very own cake

Here is Granny helping...

Here is Mom helping...

And apparently its Mom who needs the help decorating. I was under the impression that having a child would give me all these amazing new talents including cake decoration, I was wrong!

And of course Daddy and Logan.

The next day Lo and I came home to a mysterious package...

what could it be????? It looks like it is from "Tim"!

A new backpack for hiking! And its a total hit, it has already been back and forth to school several times.

to finish up the celebration Lo and I decided to make some play-doh

blue play-doh is a great way to end any day!

Happy New Year!!

Somehow this holiday season has slipped by without any updates to the blog!! We did it all though, Christmas, New Years the whole bit, but it didn't really get recorded the way I like (camera took a small vacation) and honestly it flew by! And holy cow here we are in February. So....

Here is the beginning of our Christmas tree...

And Happy New Year!

There is a huge gap in photos here, sorry folks, 2010 will be a great year for blogging, its a resolution ;)
