It's been a while
Life has been on fast forward in our house lately. I have taken up the new activity of selling Tupperware, which has just made time fly. I have been doing a good job so far of getting a party a week, this week I have 2! Sooner or later I will be actually making money instead of using what I earn to buy more Tupperware. Our kitchen is getting more colorful with the additions :)
Maren turned 2 this last week so we had a gathering this weekend. It was a small but mighty group, consisting of my Parents. My sister and Hermes, and Dana and Greg. Nick and Barb were in Tennessee and Kevin and Megan had an ISU game to attend.
This year was a much happier time. There was no candle grabbing and more importantly no temper tantrums!!! Ian did decide to get his own attention by attaching himself to the legs of our guests. Luckily they didn't seem too irritated by it. He is getting old enough to understand that it was Maren's day and that he would get his turn next month!
I decided to go with a flip flop cake for Miss Maren this year. I tried to think of things that interested her, and this is her current OBSESSION. She loves her Flip Flops!!!!! Maren got lots of clothes for her birthday. . . I think she liked them all. We will be sporting them for the next week or so :) Thanks everyone for the gifts. . . Maren will be a cutie in them all.
We got Family pictures taken on Saturday morning. We were hoping for some more mild weather but instead got 35 degrees and breezy. Maren did NOT appreciate the activities that we had chosen for her. I am just hoping that some of them are good enough to post. I am afraid of the red noses and snot that is sure to be seen in some of them. Ian did a great job with pictures. (Much better than last year!) I can't wait to see them. I think that next year we may have to opt for some indoor ones! or maybe a few around Leanne's house so we can do both! We'll see.
