Catch Up on the Big Events

So here we go. My new resolve is to blog more often so I don't have to have these big catch up posts on the major events of our lives, but since I still haven't done LJ and Ryan's birthdays I need to do one of those posts with lots of picture and little captions to give you an idea of all that went on. First though speaking of catch up (or actually Ketchup), does anyone else have a child that would probably drink it if you watered it down a bit and put it in a sippy cup?! Lorilyn if allowed can eat spoonful after spoonful of the stuff! She wants it with the usual stuff like french fries, but then she also asks for it with her breakfast nutrigrain bar or her yogurt for snack! Anyway, I digress, now without further adu we'll begin with LJ's 2nd birthday. Nana and Papa came to visit and we had a wonderful weekend full of LOTS of food, fun, play and football (it was super bowl Sunday:) Then the next weekend we had some of our cousins (unfortunately many from the family were sick) over to celebrate again and watch Jimmer play a game:-) Me being my forgetful self forgot to take many pictures of any of it, but here are a few cute ones...

Nana made a gorgeous princess cake and cupcakes to go along with it. Lorilyn LOVED the princess cake but more liked playing with it...the cupcakes however were devoured:-)


Look at the pretty frosting dress!


Yay for birthdays!


Look at my pretty yellow princess dress I got!


Nana and Papa gave me my own play kitchen and I LOVE it!


Waking up from my nap to find a new kitchen assembled:-)


LOVED playing with Nana in the kitchen.


Look at these handsome Stoianowski boys!


I love my Papa!


Here is a picture of all the food we made...yes this is just 2 days worth...we love food what can we say!


Saying hi to the camera:-) Such a precious face!


Unfortunately this is the only pic I got when the cousins were here. It was sooo much fun having them, hopefully we can plan it again soon!


LJ's first night in a big girl bed, since she is such a big girl, 2 and all:-) We got this bed from Aunt Kori. Her girls used it and now it was passed to us. Thank you so much Aunt Kori, we LOVE it!


Helping mom do some baking:-)

No we move on to pictures at Nana and Papa's for Ryans birthday weekend. Unfortunately Lorilyn had the flu so she wasn't herself, but she was a super good cuddler with Papa!

Look at that sad sick girl:-(


Danny had the time of his life rollin around on their super soft carpet...Daddy gave him a MI football to play with and he loved it:-)


Such a big happy boy!


Love this face...and the beautify blue eyes! I always wanted a blue eyed boy!


Feelin sick just playin with her dollhouse Nana gave her...


What you lookin at...so what my diaper is sagging!:-)


We had so much fun playing with Aunt Melissa!


Feelin a little better with Papa...she has a MI cheer leading outfit on...too cute:-)


One happy boy:-)


I also wanted to let you know that Grandma and Grandpa Bird sent Lorilyn a birthday package with 2 beautiful pairs of shoes that she adores. I took a video of her opening them and wanted to post it, but its not letting me today:-( I feel so bad that most all our picture are with just Nana and Papa and not Grandma and Grandpa Bird also. We miss them sooo much and can't wait until we get to go out to visit them in Utah in the summer!!
