My new license plate!

I had to do it!

Happy Birthday Finn!

Well, my little baby turns 2 today! I can't believe it! I remember like it was just yesterday, being in the hospital with my little bundle. Wow! Time flies by!

Finn has been such a fun kid. He is very busy and runs everywhere he goes. He is always smiling and is very cuddly. How grateful we are to have him in our family.

Happy Birthday Finn!

We love you!

I took him to the party store and he picked out his own party stuff. 

Theme: Fire trucks (aka WooWoo's)

You always know who's cupcake is Finn's....the one with all cake left and no frosting.

The boys....

Well, we finally have nice enough weather to get the pool out! We threw on the bathing suits, slathered on the sunscreen and pulled out the popsicles.

WATER FIGHT!

Finn always wears his food too.

Ellie comes over every morning during the week before she goes to school. It's been fun for Ethan to have a play mate his own age.

What in the world? Who is this cool cat?

For those of you who are far from us, probably don't know that Finn is huge. He is turning 2 this month, but is wearing 3T and has been for a while. I thought this picture was so funny, because he looks like a little man with a goatee.

A couple of things....

Well, things have been getting a little bit busier around here. Between Matt nearing the end of his semester, his work being busier than normal and Cupcake Chic really blossoming, I had to hire myself some help. Let me introduce you to my newest employee, Ethan. He is so helpful and volunteers all on his own! Who would have known, he LOVES to do the dishes! I am so glad, because the dishes are the worst part of cupcake baking!
Please, nobody call social services!



We also have a new addition to our family....our new Nissan Pathfinder! I know you're thinking, what's the big deal? It's not like it's an Escalade or something. Well, it has been eight years since I have purchased a new car. Bad, I know. This one is well deserved! It's kind of a funny story.
We had been thinking about putting the car up for sale, but weren't really serious about it yet. If you know me, when I get a bee in my bonnet, I GET a bee in my bonnet! Well, I went and bought a FOR SALE sign for the car and posted it on the KSL classifieds, thinking it would be at least a month before we would get any calls on it. Well.........I was wrong! After filling in all my information on the classified ad I clicked "submit" and then went back to the home page to look at my listing and the phone rang. Matt brought the phone and said it was for me. Well, it was the person who bought my car! Yes, I sold my car in under a minute! Should I be in The Book of World Records? Yes I should!!! So frantically all week I was searching for the perfect car. The one I found was in St. George of all places. So on Friday we hopped in Matt's tiny Hyundai (we looked like sardines in there) and headed for southern Utah. Test drove the car, bought it and drove right back. Oh, we did stop at In N Out and a cupcake bakery of coarse!

So here's to me and my new car! Cheers!

Ethan touching the camera when he knows he's not supposed to and taking pictures of himself and his baby brother Finn touching the other no no...the computer!
You two aren't very swift!!! I found all the evidence on the camera!

I seriously had no idea this happened until I found the pictures on the camera!
Those little stinkers!
