Happy Birthday to Us!!!

As many of you already know, I really enjoy my birthday! My husband did a stellar job surprising me and spoiling me throughout the day, despite the multiple hints German fed me. It was one of my favorite birthdays ever! German even gave me the gift of time - he took a 4 hour nap that day.


Today is Joshua's birthday and we are doing exactly what he dreams of doing every Saturday: sleeping in, watching college football (his gift was cable hook-up for the weekend! - and hence I am blogging!), and going on a hot date later tonight. We both agree that we have enjoyed our birthdays a lot this year.
This is Joshua's Ice Cream Football - no cake, just pure ice cream!



A special thanks goes out to our parents for bringing us into the world and raising us the way you did. We appreciate all of your past and current support:)

It's Finally in the 90's!


Yes, you read correctly - we have been experiencing the cool and refreshing temperatures of the mid-90's. Life is good!

Aside from this piece of bliss, life is pretty much the same as always. We are still awaiting news on a couple of housing offers and are now entertaining the thought of renting a house. Whatever happens, we will be out of our apartment by Nov. 3rd (unless something out of my power occurs).

The boys continue to grow and change daily. German is such a communicator and very creative/imaginative boy. This picture is of him posing and trying to convince his dad to do the same.
Eli is our great experimenter! He wants to do anything and everything German does, including: eating anything except baby food, drinking from sippy cups, playing with all toys, and drawing with markers (as you can see in his photo).

Photos of the Week...


German's New Hat - This was the greatest $5 purchase I've ever made! German loves this hat. He wakes up in the morning and puts on his hat, he gets out of the tub and puts on his hat, he goes to bed and sadly lays his hat nearby, :( but then luckily it's there again when he wakes up!



Eli the Adventurer - Eli definitely likes to experiment with his physical capabilities. He is frequently found under this table, or standing at anything his level, and he has no fear participating in games with children much larger than he is!
