Three for a day

Today I decided to give a very pregnant friend a much needed day off to enjoy herself before baby Jack arrives next Friday. I took her 3-year-old daughter Sophia to spend the day with us. We had quite a day...I picked her up early this morning, went to bounce at the Bounce House for a few hours, went out to lunch, stopped in Publix for a few things and then came home to bake cupcakes and play for the rest of the day. Whew, just reciting what we did makes me tired! Anyhow, the kids really enjoyed baking with me, especially the frosting part. As a matter of fact, I think they ate more frosting than they put on the cupcakes themselves.

I know all of you moms are looking at these pictures and wondering what I was thinking letting them use knives. Let me just assure you that these are Pottery Barn Kids knives and are not sharp...just perfect for spreading frosting!

After Cole woke up from his nap, he enjoyed a well-frosted cupcake as well! I guess this is what he would look like if he could grow a mustache!

Two old friends hanging out together for a day. Oh yeah, did I mention that they thought it was fun to hold wedding ceremonies over and over again today? I am just curious as to whether or not Chase asked Mr. Dave for his permission!

We can't wait to meet baby Jack next week!

I can't believe how fast the boys are growing! Cole has so much hair now!! It looks like Cole is ready to start blogging too. I have a blog on my school website and it's so funny to see what kids write; you should check it out. Hopefully we set a time to hang out soon!!

Oops! I forgot I had created a blog through Google for school, but then had to change to my county's blog and my name shows up as Ms. Whitehurst-how funny!
