Clara's 1st birthday party

 

 

 

 

Clara had her first birthday in May. We celebrated in small doses for about 3 weeks. She didn't know the difference.
I baked her egg free cupcakes which turned out sludgey. I guess you don't need 3 cups of applesauce to replace the 3 eggs. Regardless she liked them. She had 3 diapers full of sludge the next day.

baseball babe

 

 

 

 

Gabe had his first season of baseball under his belt this late spring. It was a good season of learning. I think I'm going to sign him up for baseball picture modeling next year. He looks pretty good in his uniform and poses, it just might pay better.

Ava's graduation: celebrating mediocrity

 

 

 

Ava graduated from Preschool and forced us to celebrate her success. Joe scoffed at the idea but I coaxed him into cooperating. Of course Ava was extactic and practiced her songs for months. She sang shly and quietly as she took the stage. She's more of a private entertainer in the comforts of her own home.

I forgot to tell you my kids are both N.P.P. winners

 

 

I think I totally forgot this, both Ava and Gabe won the Nobel Peace Prize back in November. They were totally flabbergasted and excited to be nominated in the first place, but to WIN! Well I guess I was the lucky one, having not just 1 but 2 winners in my family is unheard of and an honor for me. Thanks for sharing this moment with me again.
