Happy Birthday Pawly

He's one year older an wiser too! Here was his beautiful cake

packed with as much sugar as possible-

Funfetti cake+reg frosting+sprinkles in the middle layer+Rainbow chip frosting on top=

one sugar loaded B-Day cake!

Pawly loved it, but I couldn't finish my piece that night.

Any guess at his age now?

The handsome Birthday boy sporting his new clothes. Erik looks pretty nervous bout all those candles. :)

They BOTH blew them all out, hope Pawly's wish came true.
We had fun that Saturday. We went to a Spanish festival and saw some great dancers and a Mariachi band. Then we went to Red Robin for dinner, yummy! Pawly tried to play a trick to have the waitress sing ME Happy Birthday, but turns out she for got...turns out we forgot to tip.

(jk-Pawly would never do that.)

After dinner we had our neighbors over for cake. Then we crashed after our sugar high.

It was perfect :)

Also that week I decided to make fruit pizza for the first time ever. It turned out really yummy and I don't wanna admit it but we ate most of it ourselves.

I tried something different for the white frosting part used vanilla yogurt and whip cream instead of cream cheese and whip cream. I loved it-obviously. :)

Now on to Erik, the reason you read this blog :)

The similarity between these two pictures is hilarious to me! I think they were taken on different days but to me it looks like a before yogurt and after yogurt shot.

I just love the faces this kid pulls for us.

This is Erik's new favorite thing BUBBLES!!!

He loves to say the word 'bubble', blow bubbles...

Play in a sink full of bubbles... or a bubble bath, pretty much all are equally thrilling to him!

If he could 'wash' dishes in the sink with me all day I think he would! It's fun to have him in the kitchen but the moping afterwards isn't always my favorite.

This was also a garage sale find, a booster seat!! Erik loves it and I love having the space that the highchair took from me back. Every one is happy!

(PS coming soon: video's of Erik talking and showing us his letter knowledge)
