My Pirate Birthday Boy

posted on: Monday, August 29, 2011

My beautiful friend Kara snapped this picture at the party and it's my new favorite! 
My little handsome pirate had the best time at his party yesterday! So many of our dear friends came out and celebrated with us making it even more special! We love all you guys SO much! Today is his actual birthday and we welcomed it with balloons, hugs and cuddles! I can't wait to share the video, pictures and tales of the day! It's amazing thinking back at myself a year ago, before all this sunshine was poured into our lives. Thank you Jesus for giving us our little boy, even when we weren't expecting him. Forest boy is our greatest treasure.

I love you my little adventurer. You are our most wonderful dream and being your momma is the most magical thing in the world! 

Frozen Broccoli Boy

I recently discovered one of Káel's favorite snacks...raw broccoli! He loves it, especially when I freeze it. He will chew and gnaw on it for the longest time, making it a yummy, teething, snack full of vitamins! Frozen broccoli was my favorite snack (and as weird as it sounds, still is) as a little girl. 

I can't believe he's 10 months old! It's freaking me out how fast time is flying. I'll post more on the wonders of the 9 and 10 month landmark later. :) 

I've missed blogging the last couple of weeks and I know my posts have been scarce. Sorry about that. We have 3 weeks to find a house, pack and move. My brain space is filled up with house hunting and my creative juices have been going into building up stock for my new etsy store (that will hopefully open later this month or early August). Today, Sam and I are going to look at a house in one of my favorite neighborhoods. We'll see how that goes...I'm so hoping that this is the one. If it is, I'll be posting and sharing the excitement with you. 

Have a wonderful Monday!
