I'm 4 years old. Now I'm Bigger and stronger then EVER!!

Happy Birthday Vaughn!! Vaughn turned 4 on May 25th. He is really into Star Wars so he wanted a Star Wars cake. So here is the creative, slightly odd looking lightsaber cupcake cake his mom created for his Birthday: If you can tell what it is then that's all that matters and my mission was a success!

PARTY #1: Vaughn was LUCKY to have 2 parties this year. For party #1 we got a small group of Vaughn's buddies and hung out at McDonalds! The boys had a BLAST!! There were Happy Meals! Toys! Cake! and presents! What more could little boys want!
PARTY #2: For party #2 we just had family over for a Star Wars continued party! Here is Vaughn showing off his new lightsaber: Also this is his fighting face in case your wondering:
We had hamburgers and yummy stuff for dinner.
Here are some of the fun family member's who were able to attend the shindig: Grandpa Aaberg
The cute little Aaberg family: (with one on the way!!)
Vaughn:
Grandma Brooks:
and Grandma with the Wii (As Vaughn calls her):
Vaughn, excited to open all his gifts but waiting for mom... then dad to try and get a good picture. oh well we tried:
FINALLY getting to rip into all those presents:





Time for cake and ice cream. This time I let the professionals at Lee's do the cake decorating. They did a little better job than me:




Vaughn LOVED his Star Wars cake with Darth Vader and Luke fighting!! Marshall also LOVED Vaughn's cake as you can see:

Well Happy Birthday Vaughn! I hope you had a great Birthday week with all your parties and presents!! WE LOVE YOU!! And now that your 4 we hope you can beat grandpa at boxing on the Wii!!

Could this kid get any cuter?!!

Marshalls Surgery

Marshall had to get some surgery done to fix a hernia he had and to pull down his testicals. So fun stuff. Here he is all dressed up in his little hospital gown playing with the toys waiting for surgery.Here he is in his wagon after they gave him some relaxing medicine so he wouldnt get to mad when they wheeled him away from mom and dad. He had lots of fun playing in the wagon.

Here we are right after surgery. The surgery took about an hour. Then I got to go back and see him right after in the recovery room. He wasn't there for too long before we went to his room and dad got to come back to join us. Poor kid hated his IV and he got a hold of it once and almost got it pulled out.

They wouldnt let us leave till he drank something. And Marshall was not up for drinking ANYTHING. He just wanted to sit on mom's lap holding the cup. So then we tried crushed ice with rootbeer and I spooned that into his mouth and he did pretty good with that. So then they let us leave. Poor guy has been sleeping most the day and is pretty miserable when he is awake. I changed his diaper when we got home and really got to see the damage and oh man he looks like he's hurting. But the doctors said everything went well and they were able to get done everything they were needing to do so that was good! Wish Marshall good luck on the next 2 days. We pretty much are just keeping him drugged up to help with the pain.

Dinosaur Park

For a play group outing we took the boys to Dinosaur Park! We spend about 30 sec looking at all the Dinosaurs and the rest of the time playing at the park. Silly boys we could have played for FREE at any old park! Oh well. We still had a good time.

Mothers Day!!

Happy Mothers Day to all the Great Mothers out there!! I have 3 great mothers in my life! My mother, my mother in law and my grandmother! 3 great examples of wonderful ladies who raised up great children! I hope to be just like them someday! I love you guys!!

Trying to keep your kids quiet in church.....
