I'm 33!

We had a lovely BBQ at our house for my birthday with family.  The weather was great and so was the food...too bad we never seem to pull off a family photo these days.

Big Brother

Cy has been a handful of naughty energy lately, possibly because he's jealous of a new sister or simply because he's a 3 year old (and his father's son).  As I was on the computer the other day, Esti started crying.  A few minutes later I noticed she stopped and thought she fell asleep only to find Cy had crawled up into her crib with books and toys and was reading to her.  I was so proud of him and am grateful to have these moments in between the chaos.
Have you ever seen a picture so ugly that it's hilarious?  This is how I feel of Esti's expression here

Lagoon Day

A couple weeks ago we were able to enjoy an entire day at Lagoon with Mike's work.  We had a blast and Cy surprisingly wanted to go on every ride his height allowed for.  Little Esti was a dream as we traded watching her so we could all take advantage of the rides.  I haven't been to an amusement park since Madi and I lived in Denmark and I almost forgot how much fun it is.
