Nature Boys

Soren and I showed Daddy the pine forest that we learned about during the latest Babes in the Woods program at Burr Oak Woods. We had so much fun finding little bits of nature to play with, touch and explore. I love spending time with my nature boys!

Soren's First Birthday Party

Our sweet boy is coming up on his first birthday, and we just had to celebrate! Soren (and Mama and Daddy!) have grown and changed and learned a lot this past year, and we wanted to share our joy with our family.

Aunt L made some delicious cupcakes, and with the help of Grandma S, they looked pretty tasty, too! Aunt L also helped Mama make Soren's birthday banner out of cloth from his weekly photo backdrops (a la http://www.younghouselove.com/ and http://www.soulemama.com/)



 Group photo time!

Soren got lots of fun toys, including a rocking horse from Grandma Ann and Grandpa Tom and a monster tractor from Uncle John! But do you know what is most fun of all? Wrapping paper!



Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! We didn't get out to trick-or-treat because we were a little sick, but we took this today especially for Grandma.
