Finally Emerging!

Our house {ahem} I, fell victim to the stomach flu last week. Needless to say the laundry piled up, the dust bunnies are visiting again, and the bathrooms (all 2 1/2 of them) are begging to shine. {sigh} Eventually...at some point...possibly, this week.... I'll get to all of that. I'm just enjoying food again :)

Despite the stomach flu, and all the snow/sleet/freezing rain/ice that was upon us and the rest of the Northeastern part of the country, we managed to have a few moments of sunshine this week! Alec has taken off with his walking and he walks and falls and walks and falls and walks and falls ALL DAY LONG.  He doesn't seem to mind the falling part even though I cringe everytime. He just gets back up again. His determination is impressive for such a young child! 

In addition to this, I celebrated my 30th birthday with my closest friends and family members. It was a surprise that my fabulous husband pulled off after MONTHS of planning (so I heard) and it was really a wonderful time. Just what I needed!

Have a look below at what we've been up to the past few days....

Hangin' out

He loves this basket so much. So much that it's now broken!

Teething. Again.

Nothing like a frozen teething ring while reading.

One of those moments I want to remember forever.
I'm elated that he loves to read!!!

Happy Birthday Mommy!

Just to clarify, it's smoky not due to the amount of candles,
but due to the fact that they were the re-lighting kind! They were blown
out several times and dunked into water--and a few STILL remained lit!
In water!!! Crazy candles.

We both couldn't wait to tear into the cake :D

First slice
