Despite my total ineptitude for blogging, I have continued to do motherly deeds, our family is growing up and life is taking sharp turns to the right, then the left, then back again.... and in a nutshell, we're crazier than ever. We have a lot of exciting changes coming our way in the next few years and I still hope and dream that this blog will be a platform for me to record all the craziness. I'd resolve to start blogging everyday, but I'm too busy not exercising, going to bed late, and not keeping all of my other goals. Oh yeah, and I'm also a small business owner, so there's that.
But back to the family. My little bouncing bundle of joy who used to be in here:
(NOT the trunk... mah bellie.)
Oh my baby boy! (K included... how fresh and young does he look?!)
And eight years later:
To celebrate his eighth birthday, Max decided he wanted a magician. Enter Lorenzo the Great:
He was fantastic!
The kids loved it. Clara laughed so loud and hard that she almost had to be resuscitated.
For the cake, Max departed from the magic motif. He usually starts designing his cakes months in advance and doesn't like to be "locked" down with a theme. Due to my recent iPhone purchase, no one was surprised when he chose an Angry Bird cake.
It was a great birthday and Max got everything he wished for. Including having his Grandma and Grandpa here:
And the best present ever? An Undead Lich King. Seriously.






That trunk full of goodies was from the long distance shower Melinda arranged, right? And my boy is GORGEOUS!!
