Colby and Jonah found a ladybug pool and they had a great time harassing it! look at Squishiee's face in this pic! classic, like don't put that thing near me! 
look who's one!!! he made it! it's been quite a year for Jonah! aaawwweee, he' was so little. Now look at him in his 35 pound glory! I'm amazed he survives Colby's wrath.but we made it! for better or worse. He's so funny. We had a little family cake for Big Squish tonight after dinner. Again he would not touch it. I've never met a 1 year old afraid of cake! especially my one year old! I had to smoosh his hand in it and only then did he finally eat some. silly.
his brothers did'nt hesitate to dive into the cake!
i had to take about 30 pics before i got him to smile! he is so serious! 
earlier in the day we went to see *The Simpsons Movie* real funny! i enjoyed it. Jamser LOVED it! Colby's fave part is when Bart rides his scooter through town *nakey boy*. that's all we heard about all day! the boys were good! they are so much better at the movies now! it's almost pleasant! :)
not much else to report...have soccer in the morn and probably swim after that! oh, the summer days....loves
look at those *baby blues*
A hummingbird came to visit.
you will be thrilled to know that I organized my *scrap* space!!! looks nice, huh?
someone is dying to see *the simpsons movie*!maybe this weekend....
Went to the Santee YMCA today(everyday)! Our friends came to play! 
sharing grapes...adorable
we had fun! Colby sure can swim now~ he's underwater and holding his breathe and doing strokes!!! weeks ago i didn't think he would ever get in the water alone...now he goes down the slide and wow! swimmin lessons are paying off and he's having a wonderful summer! AND!!!! we have had NO poo-poo accidents! He's telling me now!!! YEAH for Colby! 
this is from class this morning. what a different kid! 
Well, our babies are now 1 year older! The party was a hit! we had about 50 people total(including adults). It was just wonderful! the kids had a blast and the parents got to relax and talk. *perfect* The day started with 2 soccer games then we got the cake, balloons, made the food and went to Playtown. 
i asked Colby how old he was and he said "i'm FREE!" and here is how he showed me.
Colby was thrilled! He did great! Jonah finally did eat some cake....under the table, on the floor!!! I don't understand it! He would NOT touch the cake at the table, but on the floor, he was all over it! he's weird. So we put the cake on the floor. i felt bad. i felt like he was hiding. He did get scared when the kids sang *happy birthday* , but all kids do the first time. i think it was just a traumatic day. He was fine once we got home. 
we did all the presents at home. Gosh, i asked people not to bring presents. Did anyone listen??? NO! we have sooo many new toys! golly! look at this!
Wow~! three years have gone by...where did they go? It has been such a wonderful ride! My little Colby~Cake is growing up. This year we moved to a new house and welcomed a new baby brother. Colby started pre~school and mastered(well, almost) potty training. I have been so lucky to look in to his beautiful eyes everyday and see the world! it's been a blast and i can't wait for more! Happy Birthday, baby!
poor Grumps....so sad. what a bummer! He can't go on the *tiger cruise* with Jason. He was all set, bought tickets to Hawaii for himself and Randy. The story behind the cruise is that when the Carrier is on it's way home they stop in Hawaii to pick up friends and family(no spouses.totally not fair) to ride the final leg home with the sailors! It's such a fun time and a great opportunity. Grumps has really been looking forward to cruising home with the *Big Man* ever since he found out about it! he is devastated.
Today I taught my first ever scrapbooking class *Pretty as a Prima* at my little SBS. I think it went well! Had 2 more people show up than I had kits prepared, so I was slicing and dicing paper and embelies! The ladies were so nice and patient with me. So it made it that much easier and I made more $$. Nothing wrong with that! I am now cutting 10 more kits for the next class wich will be next week. never thought i could teach, but it was fun! i think i'll do it again. I will be teaching an *embelish it* class in the Fall! woo hoo!
this is the finished product. a cute little box that holds the mini album! to bad it was'nt for a boy, huh?
