Caleb turns 2!

Saturday the 6th we had Caleb's 2nd birthday party.  He LOVES Cat in the Hat so it was a no brainer to use that as the theme.  I had so much fun doing this party. I had a dessert table! I found so much stuff online. Mostly on Ebay.  Matt has threatened to change the password to our paypal account!! Gramma Susie took these pictures for me.

I loved loved loved the decorations! I made the invitations, and this banner. I found a lady on facebook to make the cake for me and I made the cupcakes.

I made the cup cake stand too!!

I dipped oreos in blue and red candy coating, we had carmel corn, red and blue candies, strawberry pops, rock candy, animal cookies, rice crispy treats and short bread cookies all with the red and blue colors.

I even glued those polka dots on the popcorn boxes!

I may have become obsessed!!

I made cookies for "thank you for coming" treats and found really cute favor boxes for the kids!

Caleb had a great time surrounded by friends and family.  Grandpa kept saying Thing 1 to Caleb and Caleb would say, "No! 2!!" and point to his shirt.  He was in heaven with all his friends and cousins playing in his yard. 

My house looks so plain without the decorations! It was so festive looking now its just boring! Is it too soon to start planning for next years birthday?! I was so exhausted and in bed by 9:30 that nite! It was well worth it.

                                                            I love my little family!

so much to say

I've gone and done it again! It's been 10 months since my last update. Bad Kelly!! I'm not even sure I can remember what all has happened in the last 10 months! Caleb keeps me busy that's for sure! This kid is busy busy busy. He loves to play in our backyard. Matt built him a play set with a swing, a little club house and slide. Every morning when Caleb gets up he comes down stairs and goes right to the back door and says, "wing poweeeze" its so cute! I can't believe how smart he is. Well yes I can he is after all my kid! He amazes me everyday. His vocabulary is growing all the time too. This kid will repeat just about anything you say! We have so much to look forward to in the next few months.  We are taking a family vacation to Arizona next month, that should be fun. We will get to see lots of family.  Then Caleb will be turning 2 in August!! I can't believe I will have a 2 year old! I am having so much fun planning his party, it's going to be a Cat in the Hat theme! I am having so much fun buying and making stuff for his party.
Earlier this month we had a friend of Matts take some pictures of Caleb.  They turned out pretty cute. Here are a few.

Since we have lots of stuff coming up, I will be sure to take pictures and attempt to post a blog in the near future!
