Lil G: Hockey Player

This year, Lil G started playing hockey through our local parks and recreation department.  He actually has quite a knack for the sport.  It's been so great to watch him learn this new skill, from barely being able to skate to being able to handle a stick and actually shoot a goal! We are so proud of our little man.

Family Pictures 2014

Well, this spring, it was time for family pictures, to commemorate Smunchie turning 2 and Lil G turning 5.  Below are some of my favorites.  Hope you enjoy!

Hungry Caterpillar Turns 2!- April 5, 2014

It is hard to believe that it has been 2 years since our little Smunchie was born.  But, on Saturday April 5, it was time to celebrate her second birthday.  The theme of the party was "The Very Hungry Caterpillar", which is one of her favorite books.  Smunchie had a great time with her family and friends.  Happy birthday, sweet girl!

 As the kids arrived, we made Hungry Caterpillar hats.  The kids decorated their hats and added antennae and eyes.  Then, it was time to wear their creations!

After making hats, it was time to play the Hungry Caterpillar game.  I (Erin) read the story to the kids while they took turns feeding the "caterpillar".  The kids had a blast! We ended up playing the game twice.

After the game, we had dinner. Then, it was time for more games!  We played "Pin the Antennae on the Birthday Girl".  Each kid took a turn playing antennae on a picture of Smunchie.  This was followed by a racing game and making necklaces.  All the kids had so much fun.  It was so great to celebrate our little girl turning 2.
