More Luau Shots

Olive Garden Dinner. Yum Yum.

My Craftiness--I Made These Party Hats!!!! Only 3 glue gun burns...


Decorating cupcakes

OOOOOO! Presents.

Watching

More Sand Play. She held so still while the kids buried her.

Tammy just sent me all these shots. I wasn't going to put them all up, but I can't choose my favorite. Decisions are so hard. We took Augi to Olive Garden for her birthday tonight. She wondered why the birthday song they sang was so weird. But, the chocolate cake was yummy! More pictures to come...Tammy took over 200!

The Luau/Birthday

Getting Buried in the Sand

Lighting the Candles

Cheeser

Hooray for 2 years!

OOOOOOOOO!

Smackin' Elmo!

Grouchy?

Post, but No Picture

Happy Birthday Squig!!!! Augi is a little confused about why today is her "real" birthday. I need to figure out how to put a sound link on this blog so you can hear her sing the birthday song. It is so cute. We are taking her out to dinner tonight to celebrate. She finally started saying she is "2" yesterday. She is warming up to the idea.
We met her new sitter, Sara, today. I think it is going to be great. Sara is wonderful.
I am not posting a picture yet. We didn't take any at the luau, so I am waiting for those with cameras to send them to us. I tried to take a picture yesterday, but Augi spent most of the day in her birthday suit, not appropriate for public view. Today we just haven't had time. I will get one up, just be patient!
Check your email--I will send the audio recording to you.
P.S., if you click the link to cousin Munchy's blog, you can see pictures from the luau.

Birthday Cupcakes

Augi is so excited about her birthday. We have a ton of family birthdays this month, and hers is last. She is realy starting to understand what happens--the friends, cake, presents, singing, etc. She was thrilled to make her birthday cupcakes today. We are freezing them to be decorated at her party. They turned out really cute and we taste-tested a few. Yum! My PR rep informed me today that cupcakes are very "in" right now. She said Paris requested them immediately upon her release. All the in people are ordering cupcakes for their parties. Yeah, I know, we are trendy. It just comes naturally for us.

Squooshin' Aunt Tabi

Grumble grumble

I have to have a stinky medical thing done tomorrow. I can't eat for 12 hours. Well, since I have to be there at 7 am, I haven't been able to eat or drink for 2 1/2 hours. I just started to panic because I am not sure when I will be able to eat tomorrow. OMG. I am hungry already. Someone better drive me. Maybe they should have admitted me tonight.
It has been a busy few weeks. Augi is so flippin' cute. We bought 2 pinatas for the luau today. One elmo, the other a pirate. Augi was talking about how we will smash them with a stick--she is very excited. However, she doesn't torture her prisoners. She carried them everywhere with her tonight. She even made me put a diaper on them. Yes, Elmo and Pirate pinatas are wearing diapers. She tried to take them in the tub, but I had to put my foot down. We did let them pull weeds in the flower garden with us. Well, I will post some pics, finally.


I know, she is going to kill me for the swimsuit shot. I just couldn't help myself.
Check out the Big Girl on the airplane. She is the best traveller.




Hangin' with the Lanes is so much fun. There are so many of them!







Here are the BFF's in action. Can't you just see them getting into mischief when they are older?

I really tried to get a nice shot of Dayton and Augi hugging. They just wanted to get on with playing in the wading pool at Liberty park.
