Oh Happy Day!

Contained in the delightful blue cupcake holder is a hummingbird cupcake from Trophy. Enough said. :)

(For the non-Seattleites, that is a banana-pineapple-coconut muffin with cream-cheese frosting. Sounds weird but is actually delicious)

I justify his consumption by saying that it took two days (but stayed delicious due to the cup-a-cake holder from Auntie Keely) and the cupcake is mostly fruit, right?

Great Moments

This little one of mine always has an idea. There is always a plan. Always something else in the works. A "watch this" moment. Or, a "I just dreamt this up" moment.

I am constantly in awe of the complexity and cleverness that comes with three. Three - a world full of challenges, changes, and complexities. It is remarkable and occasionally awe-inspiring to hear Logan's plans and dreams and imaginary worlds developing.

From the inspiring moments when he says things like "If the homeless man went to college would he need to ask for our money?" to the delightful moments when he explains that he and his friend Milo spent the day on an (imaginary) boat with compartments and life-preservers and levels of decks, it is amazing to hear what inspires him.

I love the "I am going to be a doctor-man, dentist-man, diver-man" moments. This little guy always has an idea...

Superman!!!

1 blanket + 1 happy boy = superman!!!

Welcome to the family Pinky!


In honor of my own birthday, Logan and I decided we needed a new, more eco-conscious car. After much debate (where I boldly tried to convince Logan we could not actually get a rainbow colored convertible), Logan decided on a blue car. I decided on a hybrid.

After purchase, I decided the car was a girl (as I was already outnumbered 2-1 by Logan and Ollie). Logan decided on the name - Pinky!

Logan now refers to Pinky by name often and seems to know what Pinky wants - as in "Pinky likes getting dirty!" (I don't think so :) Or, "Mom, where did you park Pinky?" I feel like I have properly prepared him for his first car by teaching him they must have names.

So, here's to the great white shark and grandpa blue. The tradition continues...
