Here's what I looked like on the day I was born:



And this is what I look like now:



BEING 1 IS FUN!!

Carter's 1st Birthday

FROM CARTER:
I had so much fun at my party! All of my grandparents and great-grandparents were there to help me celebrate. I go lots of fun toys (too many to mention all of them). Thank you to everyone who got me presents and sent me cards!!!

Here is the firetruck that Mommy and Daddy got me:




Grandpa Steve gave me this Tigger (which I attacked as soon as it was opened):



Mimi and Pop gave me a "Little Superstar" stage. I have already been singing with the microphone and dancing the the music!



Here are some more pictures of the party:











Oh, I forgot to mention this. I LOVE CAKE!!!

We celebrated Richard's birthday early.

Since we had the families over for Carter's birthday, I thought that it would be a good idea to get Richard his own cake and balloon and presents. :) (Richard's birthday is next Thursday.) While Carter was being cleaned from his triumph over his birthday cake, we enjoyed some cupcakes. Here is a picture of the cupcake cake I got Richard:



(Pictures of Carter's birthday party are posted on his blog.)

Emily's new favorite artist

I LOVE Ingrid Michaelson! You have probably heard one of her songs on either Gray's Anatomy or the Old Navy commercial. I just wanted to share he with you because I think she's note-worthy. :)



Here's her song "The Way I Am."
