Lions and Tigers and Boys oh My!

2 sisters, both pregnant. both having boys and due only a few months apart!!! How could we not celebrate? Here are a few pics from Hillary and Amanda's Babyshower . I am so excited for both of them and can't wait to me their new additions!

The quote is from Wizard of Oz, except I replaced "bears" with "boys"

And there will be 2 more boys added to this adorable crew! I took head shots of each of the kids weeks before the shower so I could have Face-ka-Bobs for the Jeep I ordered HERE

For the 2 gift tables I made the name banners with my Cricut machine and glued the flags onto dried bamboo sticks 

I wanted mosquito netting hanging somewhere in the house and I found this net for the Watering hole at Ikea!

I taped the straws to the sparkling juice using Washi Tape

Lunch was served right out of the truck, and if you haven't tried the Chomp Chomp Truck, you need to! The theme was  based on tiger striped painted truck.

 I made these stands to use for fruit for the chocolate fountain... I found the plates and Bowl and target and glued them to two 4 inch candle sticks using E6000. SO easy and the worked great!

Whats up!?

Almost all of these pictures/events deserve their own posts, but since I will never catch up and I want them documented they're all being rolled into this one! 

 For Sunday pictures this week Riley told me he had an idea, he said "me and Sid are gonna dance"! So they did, right on the front lawn. It was sweetest thing ever!

Playing with Cousin Londyn and drawing with Aunt Lindsey

I Turned 31 and Paul turned 46....

After months of months of looking for Riley's "lost" Nintendo DS, we bought broke down and bought him a new one, only for Sidney to find it the VERY next day in a box of blocks! Hmmm, I wonder if she had that planned all along :)

I love when I catch the moments (short as they be) of the love and care that Sidney and Riley truly have for one another. As I was typing this Riley came into our room with tears in his eyes and said "Mom, if I grow up who will be Sidney's big brother?" I am so grateful that I was blessed with such a sweet and loving boy!

Duynamite dragons season is over. I loved watching this little crew play and Paul coach!

Angels games...

 Lots and Lots of days at the beach with friends and family

Grammy and Sid

Mothers day brunch at Ms Dianne's, Riley served me breakfast and drew a picture of me, apparently he think I look like a clown :)

For the 1st time since Riley was born I spent 2 nights away from home!  I went to San Fransisco for the weekend with Cara and Nicole and loved every second of the weekend getaway! When I got back Riley gave me this picture he drew, I sure love that boy!

And last but not least, the SPUDWOOD DERBY for Scouts. It was also Paul's birthday and to his surprise everyone sang to him and we had cake and ice cream.

 

I LOVE my sisters, they LOVE Sidney and Sidney LOVES them
