Jace's 2nd Birthday Party

Jace is turning two on Wednesday and we had his party this past Saturday and it was awesome!! Jace loves Toy Story and that is the theme we went with so we had a huge Toy Story jumping castle, a Woody Pinata, and Woody and Buzz Cake. My mom bought the cake for Jace which was chocolate with strawberry filling and delicious. Jace had a lot of fun and so did Jackson, well we all did. It was a bit overwhelming at times but very worth it. The jumping castle was a big hit and that is where the kids spent most of the time. Abrianna was a little too scared especially with all the kids in there. The Pinata was my least favorite part of the whole party. He was so strong and it took multiple hard hits before we finally destroyed him!
Baby Abrianna looking adorable as usual!

Commitment to Blogging!!

I really want to keep up with this blogging thing. My boys are growing so much and doing so many new and fun things everyday. I would love to be able to look back and have this to remind our family of these precious memories.
Now to the important stuff, my boys. Jackson is now attending preschool and he is loving it. He attends St. Andrews Preschool and he goes Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. Jackson is learning so much, making friend and having a blast. I am super proud of him!
Jace has taken to taking his clothes off and running around the whole house with only his diaper on. It is too funny and so strange. I wonder what possesses him to do this?? What is he thinking, I wish I could be let in on his secrets. Anyway this past Saturday while I was at work I received a pic from Nick of the boys topless and smiling ear to ear. Jackson was so worried and he told nick "Uh oh, mommy gonna come home and see I took my shirt off and be mad!"
That same night I came home from work Nick took me to the boys' room and showed me Jace's arm which had a bite and was swollen. Nick thought it was an allergic reaction to a mosquito bite and assured me Jace was fine. But of course I still worried all night. I felt so bad for him because he had just gotten over a really bad viral infection that hindered his breathing both through his nose and mouth. It feels like he gets over one thing and another issue pops out.
The holidays are just around the corner and I am super excited. We have a very busy month as it is. Jace is turning 2 and we are planning a party for him at home. I have a math midterm to study for and Nick has a busy couple of weeks where he will be out of town. We also have Family pictures we are going to take and I can not wait. It will be the first family portraits since Jace has joined our family. I need to decide place to take the pics at and what to have us wear but there is still plenty of time to think about it.
