It’s been a busy Holiday season(THANKS to my wonderful clients for keeping me busy!!!), and being so busy with client work, I’ve neglected my own poor children…hope no one is expecting Christmas Cards from us this year, LOL! Last week I take a break from editing & walk into the living room to see Caleb, my 4 year old playing in the living room floor with his dinosaurs.  Nothing different from most other days in the week, but looking at him, it hit me that my babies are growing up SO FAST!!! I got my camera & took some pictures while he played. Yes he is still in his PJ’s, but that’s how we roll on Friday’s, when he doesn’t have school…these are some of my favorite pictures of him ever, because it’s ALL HIM!!! I put them in a storyboard that I will have printed to hang in his room…

When Aubrey, my 6 year old got home from school, I wanted to do the same thing with her. Well what I want & I what I get is 2 different things :) She is 110% GIRL, she is all about posing & smiling & curtsy-ing & doing this crazy head tilt, girly thing….so I didn’t get as much as I wanted with her, but what I did get, I LOVE!!!

Which is why I LOVE Holiday & special occasions where they have other things to take their mind off off Momma with the camera. :) I am blessed with 2 such occasions in the month of October-Caleb’s Birthday & Halloween.

Caleb turned 4 on October 29, you can see his current obsession is Super Mario Brothers, as that was the party theme(and as you get to the Halloween part of this post, you see the obsession there as well). I ordered an AWESOME cake from a local baker, I avoid cake baking-actually just the decorating part-at all costs, my family sincerely appreciates me for this. I did make the cupcakes, along with homemade buttercream icing(YUM!!!) and the cake pops….oh the cake pops….I have made these before & they are SO.VERY.TIME.CONSUMING, but so very good! While looking for party ideas on Pinterest I saw a tip to buy donut holes & use those, which saves tons of time. I thought “why not?!” Now I know why not, donut holes are NOT nice & pretty & perfectly round, they are lumpy & mishapen which in turn leads to lumpy & mishapen cake pops.  So while they were not pretty in the least, they were very, very yummy!! So if you ever feel like you want to save some time & get donut holes, DON’T!!!  I need to try one of those cake pop machine thingys, has anyone used one of those?

I got a little crafty with this party, making the birthday banner & the blocks that held the aforementioned ugly cake pops. I was quite proud of those if I do say so myself :) I can’t take all the credit, I found tons of stuff on Pinterest, if you haven’t found Pinterest, you must do so now!!! It’s AWESOME!

The kids could care less about food, cake, cupcakes & cake pops because we had a ginourmous blow-up slide in the backyard. The thing was HUGE!! It was so much fun, all the kids had a blast & us adults got to enjoy it as well.

And now for Halloween…Remember the Super Mario Brothers obsession, well both of my kids have it.  Caleb was Mario of course & not to be outdone by her little brother, Aubrey was Princess Peach.  We trick-or-treated for about an hour & they each came home with their weight in candy, and of course wanted to eat it ALL when we walked in the door.

And that is the last time you will see my kids until Christmas, and hopefully they will cooperate then!

She was 2 weeks old at our session, and slept nearly the entire time, I think I only saw her eyes for the last 20 minutes of the session. Big brother Eli sat down for a couple of pictures, but as you can imagine at nearly 2 years old it was brief :)

Enjoy your sneak peek…
