it's a plane (& a birthday)

kavi loved the airplane ride. he looked out the window the whole time and kept pointing to the cars.
he eventually fell asleep as i was watching the sunset and listening to enya. it was a peaceful moment...

and then he awoke and threw up all over my lap. as i cleaned him up, he said in his raspy voice,"thank you mommy."


paisley sat with nanna.







cristian had a blast of a partay.
his request for the dinner menu:
spicy sausage
brandon's herb chicken
mashed potatoes
broccoli
rolls
& chocolate milk


jennifer made stir fry with tofu for dinner last night.
loved it.


here are some more pictures of the clan for your enjoyment.

#1

my main reason for a trip to austin:
this guy
cristian luke cruz is turning 8 and getting baptized!
cristian is my first born nephew, and therefore, holds a
special place in my heart.
i remember holding him and pretending he was mine.
he was a great baby, even cuter toddler, and now; a boy soon to be young man. i love this kid more than words can say.
you better still give your auntie some kisses when i get there!
can i get some kisses from mason too?
can't wait to pinch his hiney!


and i am off.
Mr. Pruett should pull up any second to chauffeur us to the airport.
wish me luck traveling with 2 children!

my birthday boy & # 5



i get to pick up my sewing machine.
i accidentally left her behind when we moved and i miss her so.
i'm craving a quilt project.
my first ever.


in mother news:
it's the boy's second birthday today.
if you ask him how old he is, he replies:
"i'm free" with 3 fingers up. 

no matter how many times i tell him he's 2, he still insists that he's 3.


               

we brought funfetti cupcakes to our ward playgroup. 
can you guess who enjoyed them the most?



readers did.

the boy also had a blast exploring new bugs in the garage

and "working out" with momma.

go kavers!
happy birthday my boy!
