More of Benjamin's Birthday

By -


After the party was over, Jacob waited until Brigham and I were busy getting kids out the door and then grabbed a big handful of cake. From the trail of cake crumbs and frosting, we gathered that he ran across the living room with it, stopped and wiped a hand on the couch, and we found him licking crumbs off of his hand while sitting on the Love Sac. Unfortunately, it was decorator's icing-- meaning it was half butter and shortning. What a mess! You'd think he hadn't almost thrown up from eating too much cake only a half an hour before!

Hey, that first 2 servings had fallen down into the ankles by then...he had more room to fill up, silly mom. Good thing that couch is getting dumped before the next move (or did you change your mind about that?) Are the cushions zippered so that you could wash them in the washer? I have done that successfully, and that fabric shouldn't be a problem to wash...but if you have arm covers I would try it out on them first.

That was one exuberant group of kiddos singing that song!
Did you have a cake mold for that? How on earth did you do that?

Jacob's a smart kid... very tricky. He knows how to time things, but unfortunately, he doesn't know how to not leave any evidence.

I showed my Mom your cakes, and we're both amazed. I had a cake cut into the shape of a butterfly once... now I know I totally missed out.

I see Moo was invited to and attended the party. He's probably getting pretty old too!

THIS GUY   has to be having a hard time right now in Utah trying to make a name for himself and selling his music given that THIS GUY has quite a musical history too and has more press coverage.   Some people are just born to have bad luck.

Lots of fun happening around here. Kiera going through daddy-withdrawls after steve had to start school again. Poor little lady. Kiera has started trying to draw pictures of people now (see photo above). Kiera has officially mastered the VCR. She knows how to work it and what all of the buttons do. (I'll bet there are some 70 year olds who don't know as much as she does at age 2). Lydia has been enjoying a few firsts lately. We gave her rice cereal last night for the first time which she was apparently more than ready for (see video), we've put her in a doorway jumper which she likes although she hasn't figured out the jumping part yet. Oh, and for those of you who have been to NM lately, you'll appriciate this: Steve and I plan on applying to a government program that is somewhat like the military in that they pay for your schooling; but instead of steve being in a branch of the military, he will owe the government years of his life serving in one of th...
