I've got some serious catching up to do...I've not been on facebook since Christmas, I think, so you're getting a rare look into my past life. Well, the past life of events that unfolded in the most recent 4.5 months of our family's life.
1 - In October, I broke my foot and sprained my ankle rather catastrophically which came as quite a shock since I'd never before broken a single bone (Andrew kept his spirits as you can see however).
2 - In November, I shopped for lots of trees at a tree farm 2 hours away twice in one week, then we poured thousands of square feet of concrete for our circular drive and planted 50 trees that arrived by semi-truck--way too much landscaping management for a mommy nursing a baby and nursing a terrible foot and ankle injury. It is all beginning to look very beautiful though:)
3 -Michael turned a whopping 6 years old in November! He adores transformers and even drew a picture design of a transformer named Starscream that he wanted me to put on his birthday cake. His transformer wish is my command. He also began to be very good friends with his T-Rex around his birthday; he is a truly personified and animated stuffed dinosaur now. He gets into all kinds of trouble I'd otherwise have to lecture Michael about. It's nice to have friends like that!
Adorable Andrew turned sweet 1 in December. He got my first ever home-made from scratch carrot cake-lucky guy! Unlike Michael, he relished his cake AND FROSTING on his first birthday. That's my baby, oh sweet growing up baby...
More to come later...Christmas, New Year, etc.
Wow, Andrew has grown a lot. He still very much looks like the Perry side of the family. What a cute family you have! You are such a cute mama - homemade carrot cake, german stew, valentine's parties to name a few amazing things you do!
