A Sick Birthday Boy

This week was I-guy's 1st birthday. But he was not a happy fellow. He was a very sick little dude- congested, fevers. I've been sick too which hasn't made matters any better. This picture was taken on his actual birthday. Note the droopy eyes and sad expression. Just not in the party mood. The next day he seemed to be feeling better so we went ahead with our party plans. It was just the four of us, but I-guy had a fantastic time. He ate his favorite dinner of avocado pieces and Spanish rice. Then he dove right in to his Incredible Vegan Carrot Cake with Vegan cream cheese frosting. See it here. Very very yummy! Here are some highlight shots of the evening.

(Doesn't E look like such a big brother!?!)

Oh- What's this? Incredible vegan carrot cake just for me?
(I-guy looks fancy with his party crown and brand new bib that mommy made)

Yeah!! This is so fun!!

Mmmmmmmm!
I can't breathe through my nose, but that's not gonna stop me!!

This is so good I think I'll lick the bottom of the plate!!
(most of the cake is really on the floor)

Okay! Party's OVER!!

Love, hugs and kisses to you!!

I's two favorite stuffies kissing.

E & I's room nice and clean!

Soccer Season Is Starting---Again!

Yes, soccer season has started again. We didn't really realize that they played soccer in the spring and fall. We got an e-mail about 3 weeks ago saying that it was time to sign up. Well, we weren't going to do it, with all the house selling and moving that will hopefully be happening soon, but E overheard us talking about it and begged us to please let him play. So, we signed him up an here we are in the freezing cold wind playing soccer in February!!!

I really can't say that this first game was really fun or exciting. It was freezing cold, extremely windy and that, I have to say is not my idea of fun. Not to mention I was trying to keep large blasts of wind from gushing into baby I's cute little face. As you can see we were all pretty bundled up for this game. How did E do you ask? Well, this picture just about sums it all up.

Yes, he's cute, and don't forget smart and handsome, but not really into soccer (yet?).

Just a few really cute pictures of the boys!

Just thought you should know:

First, Not everyone may know this, but we have put Little I in E's room. Much to our surprise, both of them love it! Little I sleeps so much better now. He naps longer and doesn't cry when he wakes up because he has so much cool stuff to look at. The best part? Last night he slept, for the first time, through the whole night. From 8pm to 7am- nary a peep from him!!! YEAH!!!!!

Second, I have decided, for now, to keep this blog separate from my Creative Kismet blog. It would save me a lot of trouble from having to keep up with 2 blogs if I put them together, but we decided this would be more private. If I open a shop on C.K. I don't want all of their info in my shop- not that this site isn't easy to find. For now, I will try my hardest to keep up with this site a little better.

Third, now that I am learning so much about computer codes and web design, I'll be messing with the looks of this space a little more often. For now I'm leaving you with some hearts for Valentine's Day.

To combine blogs or not... That is the question....

For those of you friends and family members that frequent my blogs, here is a question for you....

I am currently creating a new Creative Kismet blog which will feature categories of my different crafts and veggie cooking. This blog will also eventually be housed under my Creative Kismet SHOP. I'm trying to decide if I should combine this blog with creative kismet into ONE blog about everything. Do you mind checking two different blogs or would it be easier to just check one?

It would be a big project to combine the two, but I would be willing to take on the project. Ry-daddy wants them to be kept separate(not wanting to share too much about us and the boys), but I think that combining the two would make my site more well rounded and appealing to other crafty moms, not to mention easier to keep up on. I just can't decide what to do. WHat do you think?

Your comments or e-mails would be very very much appreciated!!

Hugs!!
