I'm just about Birthday(ed) out...naw, just kidding,
but maybe you are?
It seems like my last few blog post have been...
birthday, birthday, birthday.
Seven years ago today, June 11, I gave birth to my first child, Austin. I was due on the 9th, so two days over and I went into labor at about 3am. It took me till about 7am to realized that I was indeed in labor. (oh I love labor/delivery stories...if there are two things that I LOVE to talk about, and hear others talk about they are: Photography and Labor and Delivery....so interesting). Anyway, I'm not going to assume you like to hear all about it. But 7 years ago today, was one of the best (and hardest) days of my life. I love my big boy. I'm amazed with God's creations, and so blessed to have this boy in my life.
Happy 7th Birthday Austin!
I love making my kids' birthday cakes, though I'm always tempted to buy something super fun and cute from the grocery store, but I figure that it would probably cost more than their birthday gift. I asked Austin what he wanted on his cake, and we came up with this, a "dirt cake" crumbled oreo cookies (for the dirt) and gummy worms.
he sure felt like he hit the jackpot...a few of his favorite things right now are: money, Wii, Pokemon and soccer...and he scored on each of those and more!
Call me crazy, but I had a "sleep-over" party...6 extra boys.
They played so good and played so hard.
We had a "Dinosaur Egg Hunt"
I had purchased 125 filled Easter eggs after the holidays,
and thought the kids would have fun with it.
We celebrated his birthday last week, as I am photographing a wedding today.
I just thrilled to be doing what I love.
I can't wait to share a sneak peek with you all!
