Our Lives These Past few Days

Just a few random pictures from last week. Saturday was my mom's birthday and she wanted a cake from Costco. It's pretty much a tradition... she only likes Costco cake. Well, not even the cake, just the frosting. But anyway, we had this huge cake for 4 people. Why can't Costco make a cake a little smaller? Anyway, I picked it up the night before her birthday and this is what it looked like by the time we sang Happy Birthday. Notice the mix match of candles too! (Sorry mom, but we all know you didn't just turn 50!)



Derek wanting to help with the dishes.. Oh what a GREAT help! HA, HA! And still with his 49ers jersey on from watching the game with dad. He won't take it off until Daddy takes his off.


Sound asleep after a long day. I love sleeping pictures!


My dad is remodeling one of the bathrooms in the house and Derek is always ready to help. Here he is measuring and marking on the wall. He calls this step ladder a 'baby ladder' since it's just his size.


And last but not least (no picture for this one, just a story)... I was trying to make dinner tonight and Derek was all over me. Wanting me to play, to give him ice cream, to go outside, etc. I said, "Oh my gosh, you're irritating me!' He then replied with, "No mom, you errrtate ME!". I was laughing so hard! TODDLERS!

Happy Birthday Susan! You don't look a day over 29! =)

LOVE LOVE the picture of Derek helping out Grandpa in the bathroom. That kid is going to be a genius with all the construction he can do when he is older.

And Kelly, yea, if you weren't so errtating Derek wouldn't have to say that! too funny. I love the things they say.

Kristi and Genny... you guys make me laugh! And I'll have to tell my mom next time we need to get a cake from you. But she just eats the frosting anyway, so we'll just have you make up a batch of frosting for her! LOL
