Text of the page (random words):
in no not physically no orders just yet but virtually moving from this blog to a new location check out the new digs at wordpress and you can also find out why i m moving from here to there and if any of you are seriously smart at website things i would love to import all of my posts from this site into the wordpress one any tips would be greatly appreciated tschüß posted by jennifer 3 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest mario luigi and bailey if you have known me any time at all you know i have an irrational love of cake the taste and smell of course but also a the look of cake and i especially love pretty cakes that taste and smell amazing from the time my first son was one i ve sought out a cake lady to bring my vision to life in the form of sugar i had a great cake lady in forest city janet i found one in columbia for the one set of birthdays we had there and then was mostly without one until this year if the friend of mine who made this cake wanted publicity i can assure you i d flood the internet with references but she doesn t want to create a business out of her passion i can honor that i think i need to write an entire blog about the beautiful cakes the boys have had over the years but since this particular post is supposed to be all about bailey i ll stop drooling over cakes for the moment and move on my third child the greatest surprise of my life has turned 7 he got a super celebration this year as we were in england on his actual birthday sherri gave him a full birthday party at her house and honestly it was plenty party to sufficiently celebrate bailey he loved it and it was his favorite part of our england trip i can t thank her enough then we got home and celebrated bailey with our friends at our home bailey is my child who most loves to be at home so when his brothers started planning their birthdays last summer and they wanted large get togethers at the bowling alley or indoor play places bailey wanted his to be at home easy enough thanks to the caltriders who were sorely missed at bailey s party both by the boys and the adults we were able to let the boys eat their pizza on the porch we inherited their outdoor furniture and have already had several meals out there and now you ll see why i find someone to make cakes for me i have no talent whatsoever for decorating i can make it taste just fine but it is u g l y now please note that i m referring to the icing part of the decorations the letters and green icing and characters are beautiful and well done thanks to the birthday boy we made this cake yesterday in keeping with our family tradition that started last year so i m sort of amazed at how seriously the boys now take it in 2010 because we weren t celebrating with a party on carson s actual birthday but did so with friends a few weeks early we decided to make a cake together on his birthday to celebrate a month later we did a similar thing for bailey s 6th birthday 2 months later for hayden s we had to do the same to keep things fair i don t like that word nother blog for nother day well guess what they remembered that this year and so carson and i whipped up a cake together a month later bailey so remembered that even though he s already had two full birthday parties but who can argue with a 7 year old with two missing front teeth when he says he wants to spend time just with you not this mom and so we spent a portion of rest time yesterday making this cake now in breaking with normal practices bailey didn t want a triangle slice of cake he wanted his name so as best i could i cut the top layer off giving him all 6 letters no cake making day is complete without big brother kissing the baby and getting chocolate on his face now in the next picture i understand that i used too open an aperture here therefore blurring parker out even though i adjusted hoping to get them both in focus i couldn t resist adding this photo for whatever reason bailey s using his gangsta face and it s adorable happy birthday sweet bailey you are a joy to your family and we are so glad god surprised us with you posted by jennifer 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest the advocate so the time has come to transition from the new baby seat to one that will grow with him this milestone occurred much later for parker than for any of my other babies that s for sure at only 18 lbs 3rd percentile he still has 4 more pounds he could gain before outgrowing his infant carrier but since he s officially a year old i decided to order his big boy car seat it arrived today so i was fast to get it set to the right size and install it in my van we even took a ride to waaf to show daddy he was unimpressed that was fine with me i was quite impressed his original seat the new seat he seems pleased enough okay so the truth is he has his second ear infection and doesn t feel very well saying good bye to the old seat he s growing up so fast posted by jennifer 4 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest the way to see england my dream finally came true i got to see england i am so excited about the memories we made and the fun we had we ve been home less than a week and i ve already made and ordered my shutterfly photo book for the trip if you need the password email me and i ll give it to you this is how we traveled the big three were on their own matt carried parker and i carried the essentials a back pack full of diapers wipes motrin to stave off kids leg cramps a banana video camera sippy cup of milk change of clothes for parker thinking back i don t even remember what else was in that heavy thing that i never even used i should have carried less each day and of course in my hands at all times my new nikon that i reference here here is a quick recap of our awesome vacation here we are in front of buckingham palace i wish the scaffolding wasn t there after we left the palace we headed to h ard rock cafe we all had a great experie nce there the wait staff took amazing care of us but parker seemed to have the best time of all bailey lost a toot h while we were there the day before his 7th birthday here is matt in front of westminster abbey and here he is with a sleeping parker in front of big ben during february and march we spent a few weeks studying england and its major landmarks we learned that what we can actually see is called clock tower or st steven s tower and the bell inside is called big ben the minute hand is 14 feet long and made of copper it s hollow to keep it light we love this bridge it s called tower bridge and it s just beautiful the day we visited cambridge proved to be the day i had more time to try out some creative things the city is less busy and we spent most of the day in pedestrian zones which means we were less concerned about the boys stepping into traffic bikes were everywhere as were signs warning bikers not to chain their bikes to specific fences at the end of cambridge day we went to sherri s house a friend of jessica s and zak s sherri had planned a full on birthday party for bailey she made a strawberry checkerboard cake with buzz lightyear on top she served this cake on star wars plates and had the table decorated with a solar system table cloth everything was so well thought out and after we returned home to germany bailey said that sherri s house was his favorite part of the entire trip makes a mommy happy and the next day the babies got a rest here s connor sacked out on the floor of our hotel room chilling while jessica taught me how to play fluxx pretty fun but it takes a while to get the hang of it i won the first two rounds then lost the next 10 part of the day we spent outside letting the babies swing play in the grass and letting owen and bailey run free with no cars to watch out for just a free relaxing day zak and matt took hayden and carson to oxford to eat lunch at a very special restaurant the eagle and child is where c s lewis and j r r tolkien sat together every tuesday and shared their timeless manuscripts with each other when we returned to germany the boys both said that this was their favorite part of the trip on sunday we headed back to london to hillsong church amazing worship experience even if jessica and i had to take in the service from the baby room afterwards we headed to see the top item on my list diana s chapel this was a highlight for me for sure on our last day in england we had a few hours before our ferry back to france we saw dover castle and were so highly impressed the castle was so well preserved and the historical importance was meaningful to us here you can see me reading to the boys about the underground tunnels that were used during wwii here are some words i wrote for the end of our shutterfly book it s not required reading so no complaints that it s long we were so blessed to have friends take us to england who had lived there before that meant we didn t have to drive on the other side of the road that also meant they knew the area well enough to get us around and about in cars trains tubes and double decker busses we were able to hit all the major sights that one wants to see when heading to london giving us just a taste of all there is to experience we would love to go back and see more things in detail i want to tour buckingham palace and the royal muse i want to spend a lot more time in st paul s cathedral where diana was married i want to enter parliament i want to spend a full four hours at the tower of london none of these were possible in the time we had but we got to see each of them and snap the obligatory photos of us with each of them a neat story about our experience with st paul s on our first day in london we used the hop on hop off tour we passed diana s chapel before the automated audio tour guide told us what it was i was disappointed to have missed it but we had other things we really wanted to do so my mind was set toward getting us to the tower of london the next day i started to really hope that we could go by and see the cathedral on sunday when we were back in london zak and jessica were cool to let us go out of the way a bit to spend some quality time there i loved every minute we spent there and am so glad it worked out that we were able to fit it in things that surprised me londoners do not wait for the little green man before crossing the street germans always wait and i appreciate them for that there is way more to see and do in england than i thought the london eye is much bigger than i expected the babies did a great job traveling in their backpack carriers double decker busses are just as fun to ride on as i had imagined there were no pictures of diana anywhere a baby who touches your lens at hard rock will leave a smudge that will be evident in all the pictures you take for the rest of the day causing some of the windows on parliament to be blurry clean lens often i also believe god had his hand on our trip we asked him to bless us with smooth travels and safety and he answered those prayers some of the many ways we saw this are below even though we had 10 people in our party we were always able to be seated in restaurants immediately unheard of at the hard rock cafe they sat us immediately gave the kids a table next to ours and gave us a military discount without us having to ask i wouldn t have thought to ask the waiter asked us if we were with the forces we got on all trains busses tubes without having to wait a long time and we never got on a wrong train bus tube our hotel was amazing 1 bedroom 1 full kitchen 1 living room 2 full bathrooms each family had their own hotel room we saw several accidents averted right before our eyes a few should have been accidents and had they occurred we would have been involved nothing got stolen lost or left behind not even bailey s lord of the ring ring that he did his best to lose we had absolutely gorgeous weather everyone stayed healthy while on the trip on the way home we drove as far as we could trying to get into germany so we could fill up at an esso station using the us prices rather than european prices the gps sent us on a wild goose chase and we ended up in a small village with an esso station that had closed a few hours earlier at that point we were 29 miles from empty we were a bit nervous that we wouldn t find any station open esso or otherwise matt prayed aloud and within 3 minutes we found a shell paid full price but got enough gas to get us home without danger of running out the relief of finding that gas station more than compensated for the extra money we spent having not used an esso station and finally as important as almost anything else we left for england friends with the hills and we returned as such there s always a chance that too much togetherness can tarnish a friendship and i believe god was good and provided protection against this we are thankful for every aspect of this trip posted by jennifer no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest i m one
