Happy Birthday to you


Libby with her Elmo Cupcake that I made

She mostly just wanted to eat the marshmallows, oreo, and m&m nose. I think she ate one bite of actual cake

Libby and Elliot snuggling on Libby's bed while she played with the Barbie's from  Annaliese  & Addie

We've been braving the weather a few times a week since it's not that cold (30's)  so Libby can play outside with other kids and  yesterday when she was running away from me she tripped and face planted. The "owie" is really tiny on her nose, but she loves bandaids so here she is.

Bumbo chair and Early birthday present

Elliot trying out the Bumbo Chair

He likes it...most of the time
Libby decided that "baby" needed a turn too, her animals and dolls spend more time in the chair than Elliot does
And she needed one too
Elliot loves attention, especially from his cool big sister

Libby hasn't seen this yet, but it's her present from Gma & gpa Hill and it fits perfectly into her present from me...
Liberty's amazing birthday present. Who made that awesome table fort? yes, it was me! I feel like a cool mom now. Window, door and mail box on front, pockets and a fire place inside. Since Libby has 2 closets in her room and we have a handy bar that we sit at to eat, we didn't need our table anymore so I made it into this for Libby and someday Elliot


I couldn't wait till her birthday. Julie babysat yesterday so I could finish it up. It better last forever cuz it was a lot more work than i'd aniticipated and I didn't even put in a second window like planned. Libby really likes it, which makes me very happy.

Liberty requested Elliot come in and visit. You can see the fireplace in the background.

She made sure I laid him on the "bed" with the dolls and animals

Happy Valentine's Day

Libby

Elliot

Sibling Love

Kisses

I love you this much!

My little cuties!
Libby didn't really want to sit for pics, but I got a few. By nap time, both kids had a change of clothes due to spills or spit-up so glad I took them when I did.

Libby writing letters


I forgot to add these to the last post. Libby gets very intense and focused now when she does art projects. It was really funny to watch her making valentine's cards, which I forgot to mail, so sorry everyone, they will be late, but hopefully we'll make up for it by putting in a cute picture or two :)

Sick Day

Elliot had these jammies when he was preemie size and Richard has been bugging me since he outgrew them to buy them in every size, but they were out at Walmart until last week so I got him some new ones. Apparently argyle on a baby is the best thing ever according to Richard. :)
Elliot looking so daper in his plaid shirt

I love this picture of Libby!

Early birthday present from Frauntie Jennifer. She loves her new sunglasses and she insisted on putting the giraffe jammies on immediately too! (worked out well cuz it was bedtime when I got the mail)

He's so happy! I love this little guy

Libby pretending to sleep next to Elliot in our bed this morning.

Elliot giving loves to his lion that Libby kindly brought him.

She also decided he needed a hat, blanket and more toys. So helpful and he loved it.

Elliot like 5 minutes ago sleeping holding onto his lion.
Today we are having a family sick day (yesterday too I guess). We all have bad colds and Richard has developed a horrible case of hives. We stayed in our bed most of the morning. Libby and Elliot joined us too and Richard and I finished re-reading Hunger Games while Elliot mostly smiled at us and Libby jumped around and played on her toy laptop and watched a little Elmo. Anyways, I figure since we're just hanging around I should post some pictures since we've taken some really cute ones lately.
