Waxy Wednesday

We celebrated Dr. Suess week awhile back here at home and with the kids' school. Audrey was especially into Wacky Wednesday, although she kept calling it "Waxy Wednesday." It was so cute, especially with all of the crazy hairstyles and silly things that she came up with that I just let her keep calling it that.

We made Oobleck on Waxy Wednesday too!

Happy Birthday with Hats

We celebrated Erik's birthday last night with the family. Owen designed a hat for the birthday boy and then continued to make several more that the rest of us could "purchase" for anywhere between 1-3 cents each. So we all raided our piggy banks and wore these stylin' hats for the party:

As he was opening his cards, the kids would blow their noise makers "if it was a good one." Needless to say, there was lots of noise going on!

This special "DaD" birthday hat has a black feather on top so that it also has Steelers colors!

Pinewood Derby

Owen had his first Pinewood Derby race at Indian Guide's camp.

Cooking with Nana

Nana and Elaina had a fun time making cupcakes for us for Valentine's Day!

Surprise, Elaina!

I gave Elaina a surprise birthday party with some of her closest friends. She was so excited AND surprised! Elephants are her favorite animal so that was the theme:

How can she be 6 already?

She has some sweet friends!

"Ellie" was her favorite Christmas gift- she played the games, helped open the presents and even ate some of the peanuts the other kids cracked open and ate at the party!
