Gabe enjoys riding in his new wagon

Anna enjoys pushing Gabe on her Cinderella bus and he enjoys the ride too.

Happy Birthday Gabe!!!

Gabe had his 1st. Birthday on May 16th. I made him an angel food cake and some angel food cupcakes. The topping is homemade whip cream and sprinkles for a little extra color. It was delicious and Gabe thought so too, which you can see from some of the pictures below. He ate the whole cupcake.

Anna helped Gabe open his gifts. He got the nice little red wagon and then a John Deere tracker that has a farmer and farm animals that came with it. It also makes cute animal noises.

I just took this picture of Anna yesterday. She had herself a bowl of sliced up apples and peanut butter and was just enjoying herself. It was such a beautiful day.

I have to take pictures when Anna does not know I am taking them or I will get smiles like the pictures below...

I don't have to worry about not getting a good grin out of Gabe..

Gabe started walking at 11 months old, which was almost a month ago. He is now all over the house. Next Wed. May 16th will be his 1st birthday. How time flies. I am really going to enjoy putting in a garden this year and working outside, which is were I am heading after this post. The kids are sleeping, so time to get some more weeds out of the garden.

Anna loves the outdoors. She has all her pails and containers to put rocks and dirt in. She helped me on Saturday with collecting the weeds in the garden and dumping them. She is going to be mommies little helper.

I can't believe it has been a month since I last posted pictures. So here are some great pictures of the kids and things that they have been doing.

Grandpa Marting visited one weekend and Anna was always right by him sitting and wiggling around. She also really liked the puppies that he brought up to sell.

Well we finally had a nice weekend on April 28th to put the swing set together. Grandpa & Grandma Kostman got the swing set for the kids for Christmas. Anna loves it and mommy does too. It keeps her busy, so I can get things done that I need to.

Sleepy girl...This is what I find when I come home in the evenings from working at Victor Allen's Coffee & Tea.
