Birthday Cake!

Saturday was Trip's best friend, Zachary's 4th birthday party. We have been testing out going gluten free for Trip to see if it helps with some of his tummy issues, so we decided to make Trip his own birthday cupcakes so that he wouldn't feel left out while the others were eating cake. Trip thought this was pretty special and I'm sure thought the rest of the party was his birthday too. We had to keep pulling him away from opening Zac's presents!

These are some pictures of Trip enjoying the gluten free cake batter. Apparently he liked it!

So Big!

We play a game with Anna Kate where we say something like, "How much does your Mama love you?" (we wait for her to lift both arms in the air) and then we say, "Soooooo much!" or "How big is Anna Kate?" ... "Soooo Big!"

I tried playing it with her on the swing, saying, "How big can you swing?" She was trying so hard to lift both arms in the air, but was a little too unsure and kept one hand gripping the rope.

She really is sooooo cute and getting sooooo big! :)

Bucket Heads

These two have been such good buddies lately. Anna Kate is a pretty resilient baby girl and loves rough housing with her big brother. Trip gets such joy out of making her laugh.

This was the scene Saturday morning while I made breakfast. Trip made hats for himself and Anna Kate. J and I laughed histarically! Funniest thing I've seen in a long time. Isn't having little ones wonderful!? Constant entertainment.

Into the Sunset

A new favorite activity:

Big Brother driving Little Sissy off into the sunset on his tractor.

Since Christ Is All: Katie's Story

Pretty amazing story...

Since Christ Is All: Katie's Story

Dada's Girl

It's official. Anna Kate has J wrapped around her little finger. And I'm pretty sure she is madly in love with him too.

Standing Tall

Anna Kate gets bolder each day with the amount of support she needs to stand. Earlier tonight we caught her with a finger tip balancing her against a piece of furniture. I know that walking will soon follow, and to be honest, I am just not ready for that! She is growing up too fast.
