stella, deltas and the fellas

We had our annual Tri Delta get together over the weekend in Nashville & it was so great to catch up with everyone, eat lobster pizza (too much back story there) & realize that even though we don't see each other that often, having great friends is a special thing. We had a celebration for Baby Stella (who is training to be a Kung Fu Master based on all of her kicking) and Baby Girl Moss (no name yet...). I cannot believe that the next time I see Emily she is going to be a MOM!!!I love it. 

 Someone had to take the picture, but I swear I was there. I tried to wave in the mirror and get my reflection in the pic, but no luck. Lindsey, we missed you!

 Totally ignoring the cheese covered potato on his plate, but chowing on the edamame. He really likes the ones that are still in the shell because he gets to open them. Part of the desperate hunt to find what he will eat.
 His eye looks a little crazy here, but I love the no diaper shots.
 Lily has been here this past week & they have played so wonderfully together in our dreams. Seriously, my mom is such a trooper because they are basically siblings and play the classic sibling games of "Mine", "No! Mine!" and, their personal favorite,  "That's Mine!" I love that they get to spend so much time together.
 Helping me make cupcakes. I swear, he is such a person.
 We had a Birthday Playdate with Anderson's 2 best friends (the aforementioned fellas) last weekend & it was perfect. Just pizza, cupcakes, dogs locked in the garage, construction hat treat bags & playing.
 Jackman! He is starting to talk so much & I am really working on Sissa. Jack brought Anderson 2 Diego dvds! This is wonderful so we are not stuck watching the same hippo one multiple times.
 Ring pop as an appetizer. How great is this shirt?? I bought it here & I love it because it is not monogrammed (he is a boy so we have to start straying from that), it washes so well & was only about $15. I highly recommend her stuff.
Their hats so have their names on them & I had grand plans of a really cute pic of the 3 of them wearing them. This is not what I imagined, but Jack is clearly loving it so it works out pretty well!
At some point his birthday is going to actually be over...

  3. Yay for no diapers. Thier little bottoms seem so tiny when you hold them after they switch to undies. Random memory from when I potty trained my first boy.

    P.S. Let the party roll on. He only turns 2 once. :)

  5. So fun! I love that you did construction hats for his party. I cannot believe he is potty trained this early. What the heck was wrong with my kid??

  7. Good Lord I look pregnant! If I wasn't the one actually in that body I would think that poor girl was about to give birth! LOL!

    I'm so glad we got to hang out! It was so good to see you but entirely too short! I miss you already.

  8. So, I had this forever long comment typed and Molly walked up and pushed the power button on my computer and turned it off. i think she was mad b/c I was going on and on about how Anderson and Lily are so dang advanced! I am so, so jealous and impressed Anderson is potty trained! You are amazing. I think Molly is ready now but I am waiting until she starts a real daycare (which is in 3 weeks!) and gets settled there to start potty training. I just don't think the sitter she is with now is consistent enough with it. Anyways, that sweet boy deserves a million b-day parties and cupcakes - he is too cute!! I am still bummed I couldn't go to the reunion...what is this fancy-pants lobster pizza I am hearing about? I have a feeling there is a joke about it...
