Today was mothers day, so because Jacob said that you have orange juices on Mothers Day we picked some up. So during our Mothers day brunch I poured Violet a glass of watered down juice. It’s the first time we’ve given her juice, so we were curious to see how she’d react: ‘Yucky’ was her …

Today was quite a day and as always seems to happen on days where I have the perfect picture of the day, I end the day with 2 or 3 pictures that I would be more than happy to use as my picture of the day. Usually I choose one and share the other as …

Sunday is mother’s day so today Jacob brought home the project he made for his mommy at school. They were so cute I couldn’t wait till Sunday to share them, just do let Melissa see them.

Today I turned 34, so we had a nice family dinner with a home made Ice cream cake for desert. Melissa and Jacob did an excellent job with the cake. It’s nice to know that Ice Cream cakes are a treat Violet wont have to miss out on because of her allergies.

Today’s picture is from our families Easter Egg hunt this morning. Both Jacob and Violet got really into it. So much so they discussed strategies for finding all the eggs.
