Shabby Apple

Don't you think Amparo should be the next Shabby Apple baby?

She has such a sweet smile and big sparkly eyes. She LOVES pretty dresses (and so does her mama)... and like her, never refuses one...
She's a tiny, petite treat... just a sweet little brunette.

And she would look so ADORABLE in Shabby Apples's Queen of Hearts Dress (little girls and girls dresses from shabby baby).

On The Phone




I'm at work - talking to Gerrit on the phone....

I asked "Gerrit, what do you want to do when I get home"

Gerrit: "Um, go to Starbucks"

Sunday

It was such a perfect day outside... what better way to welcome the Spring than by cleaning my car. Which led to my new rule... no more eating in the car. I think I vacuumed my weight in crumbs. Ick.

After nap time, we went to the zoo.

St. Patricks Day At The Park

We took the kidos to the park with Nana. Gerrit met a new friend named Noel - You'll notice that Gerrit also bumped his eye into the stairs on the way up to the slides. Ouch!

Happy Birthday Emmy!



We went to Emmy's house tonight for her birthday party. Her cake was AMAZING... Erin did such a great job! I just can't believe our babies are 3 year old kids now. Wow.

Happy 3rd Birthday Gerrit!



I don't think Gerrit quite knew how to take all the "Happy Birthday" 's being thrown his way. But he definitely enjoyed opening all those presents! He really received a lot of great gifts... his first bat, first raquet, first board game, first suit, first camera... and just a bunch of super stuff.

Are Those My Vitamins?


In an effort to be good parents, we decided to buy Gerrit some vitamins. We thought we were doing a good thing....Flinstones....gummmies! (yummy)

Well, we've created a monster. Gerrit asks to have a vitamin everytime we're in the kitchen. As he gets older he is learning to manipulate us in to thinking the other parent hasn't given him his 'bytamin' yet...

Tonight as we were going through our nightly wrestling match of getting the kids to sleep. Gerrit came out of his room and saw Brenda with a package of gummy bears. Brenda then quickly put the gummies behind her back to hide them...but; not quick enough...Gerrit suspiciously gazed at Brenda and asked in a inquisitive tone "are thoooose MY vitamins?"

as to say "hey, I know why you want me to go to bed.....so you can eat my gummies"
