Birthday Time

Like I said, I'm so behind on blogging! Cole's birthday was on the 8th, so we celebrated! Cole's mom made him a cake filled with ice cream and a nice dinner the weekend before.

 Grace really wanted to take her own pictures of Cole blowing out the candles!

 The birthday boy on his almost birthday!

 Emma was very excited for cake!

 The kids all had cake and enjoyed it! I was a good girl and opted out. 

 On Cole's actual birthday, he took the day off of work. Grace had school, so after we picked her up from school we went to the Ale House, so Cole could get his free birthday dinner.

 The babies being super nosy!

 It was such a nice day out that after dinner we took the kids to Peaceful Meadows to see the cows and get some ice cream. I again, was a good girl and opted out of ice cream. The kids all loved their ice cream!

 Grace wanted to be like Daddy and chose coffee ice cream, just like him. Although Cole chose to have his in shake form. 

 It was so windy out!

 The babies like to be independent and refuse to let you help them eat, it definitely was a bathie night!

 Grace likes to get her ice cream in a cup and then a little at a time put it in a cone. 

 After the kids finished their ice cream we went to say hi to the cows. 

The Friday after Cole's birthday we had the Brennans' over to celebrate again. I made the best kind of cupcakes, funfetti cake in ice cream cones, with rainbow chip frosting. I did give in a little and I had 1/2 a cupcake, it was so worth it! 

Cole's Birthday

We decided to head to the Ale House in Abington for Cole's birthday dinner, well, because it's free there! I decided to dress the kids up in their matching/coordinating outfits they got for Christmas. I tried to get a nice group photo of them, but decided that single shots or doubles was the best I was going to get!

Nothing like a little eye poking!

And that's why I decided to try them by themselves!

Handsome boy!

Happy Birthday Cole!

Hockey Time

Yesterday was Cole's alumni hockey game, I took the babies with me to go watch the game. Cole's parents watched Grace for us. Grace has reached the I throw temper tantrums about EVERYTHING stage, so I try to limit how often I'm out in public alone with all 3 kids! I just haven't quite mastered juggling all three of them, especially when a certain toddler is throwing a temper tantrum in public.It's quite impossible to push a double stroller while chasing a toddler and I wanted to be able to actually watch the game and knew if Grace was with me I wouldn't have been able to see much of the game.

Cole wasn't sure how many goalies would be there, so he wasn't sure how much playing time he'd get, but luckily there was only him and one other, so they each got to play the whole game. I think Cole was pretty tired after the game, I don't think he's played a full hour of goalie in a while! It was really nice to watch all the guys play again, it made me feel like I was in high school again!

3 Years Ago Today

I married my best friend!

                           Who would have thought that my junior prom date from 2001

would end up being my husband.

And now 3 years later, we're on our way to having 3 kids!

A Few Pictures

Just thought I'd share a few pictures from the last week.

Grace climbing like a monkey.

Going down the slide like a big girl!

Look at those long legs!

While Cole and I were getting ready for a wedding this weekend Grace decided to rock a hat.
