Happy Birthday Bruce

Bruce just turned 1 yesterday. I can't believe it, this year has gone by way to fast.
We call Bruce 'the moose' so what better way to celebrate his birthday but with a moose party!!
So I made moose cupcakes for him, they took so much time, but they turned out so cute!!
 Here is our little moose in action, we were trying to take pictures, but of course he has to put his head back and give his cheesy smile, so this is the best we got. Like his shirt I made this too, with the 1 on it.
 Bruce really wanted to get in on the food but he had a whole cake waiting for him.
 Present time, he was so funny, he didn't really want them. He wanted the paper, he is also really shy. We had my whole family over, so in our little house it seemed like a lot of people. I think he was just really overwhelmed. He loved his toys though. I think Dylann thinks they are hers, b/c she wants to play with them all the time. When ever we tell her to let Bruce play with HIS toys she always says "Bruce play for a little bit, then I get to play"
 So we were really strict with our kids, NO SUGAR BEFORE THEY TURN ONE!! Yea I know we are so mean, but hey whatever they really don't need it. Well since it was Bruce's birthday we let him have some sugar. We let him suck on a sucker for a little bit, after my 2 sisters gave their babies suckers, 9 months and 3 months. We had to get the 3 of them with there suckers, Clark was just licking it just a little bit, then Bruce he just really wanted to eat the stick part, and then there is Bryn, this girl is an old pro, she has been having candy and chocolate since she was born, She knows how to do it.
Getting ready for his cake, like the bow tie, I made it just for this, He looked so cute.
Here he is with his cake, he was a little into it at first but like I said he is really shy. He really wanted me to be with him, but that was not what I wanted. I just kept putting him back, he liked the ears for a little bit.
Checking out the ears a little more
Then he was so mad that I put his hand in the cake, he did not like it one bit, b/c it wouldn't come off. I think it scared him that it just stuck to his hand. I tried to put some in his mouth, he just screamed it out. Then I sat him down with the cake in between his legs and he got right up and walked in it to me screaming. So of course I had to hold him. He was covered in cake and frosting...
So that means I was covered in cake and frosting, I still loved it, he is such a good cuddlier. I love this little guy, I am sorry you didn't like your cake Bruce.
 Happy Birthday to our little man, you have been the such an important part of our family. Thank you for you smiles, your silliness, your willingness to do what ever your crazy mom wants you to do.
Happy 1st birthday Bruce.

Favorite new Toy

This little guy is the best!!! He loves everything.
He always wants to have my phone, and talk to daddy.
 He is so cute about it, he holds the phone up to his ear,
well it ends up on the back of his head, but at least he is trying.
Well he now has a new favorite toy...
 Yea that's right its a naked Snow White
He wants to chew on her feet
He will carry this barbie around all day if I let him.
he screams when I take it way.
This little crazy girl, who had to pose for like 80 pics with her blue tongue hanging out, doesn't care.
She doesn't really like Snow White,
If Bruce were to take any other one of her toys she would freak out
but Snow White she could care less. 
Why? you ask well
She doesn't like her b/c she has black hair
yea weired I know she only likes her blonde barbies 
b/c they look like her. She is so weird
So Bruce you can keep it up... keep chewing up that foot. 
Love you silly kids
Plus Bruce is now a walker!!!!

New Project

I just finished a new project, I am really happy with the way it turned out.
I have been collecting frames for almost a year. I wanted really different ones.
I also didn't want to spend a lot of money on them.
I think I spent 5 bucks at the most on one frame,
A lot of them were free too, can't really beat that
Here is the before, trying to figure out the lay out
Here is the after on the wall. I love it.
I know its all over the blog world, but I love it, I am going to add a brown P to it
We have it up in our kitchen, I am just in love with it.

Big NEWS!!!


I am not pregnant!!!
I just had to clear that up before I started.
I was asked to do an interview with the
Columbus Parents Magazine.
A friend of mine is friends with the girl that is writing an article about SIDS.
I know kinda sad, but she wanted to put a little spin at the end.
About a premie baby and how they are now, now that they are out of the scary SIDS time.
So my friend told her about me and Dylann.
I am really excited about it. I just got interviewed today.
The issue comes out in March.
And the best part, they are going to put in a picture of me and Dylann in it. We are going to get pictures done by thier photoagher.
Wow that is so exciting.
People are going to be reading about my story.
They might also put pictures of Dylann when she was first born.

I will let you know when it comes out.
We will be buying a lot of this copy. I can't wait.
