The Cake, the Party, the Fun

This may be my last post in a little while as we move next week and whose knows when I'll be up and blogging again:-)

Anika and Andrew shared a birthday party last night with some good friends. I tried my hand a making their cakes this year. Anika's was a princess cake and Andrew's had Elmo on it.

Making a wish . . .Cake and ice cream - yummmmm!

Waiting (patiently?) for her presents. . ."Presents? I'd rather wrestle with Tyler."

New princess costume (you can never have too many!)
Little People's Fire truck with lights and sirens will keep Andrew busy -- for awhile:-)Daddy opens the Barbie princess doll. (Wow, these kiddos were spoiled!!!!)

A boy and his dog. . .and his sister:-)

Look whose 4!!!

Anika celebrated her 4th birthday on Jan. 8. Since we were having a party later in the week with her brother, we just enjoyed some ice cream together and did her hand print. She is holding up her hand in the picture not to say she is 5 but to show her hand that is going to be imprinted in the plaster:-)

Sibling Rivalry?

Anika grabbed the dust mop recently and instead of using it for its intended purpose (sigh, maybe someday. . .) She asked Andrew to jump on for a ride. Oh, that they would play this nicely more often:-)

PS Yes, Drew is wearing his coat -- I can hardly get him it out of it.
