First off on my agenda is planning someone’s first birthday party! That’s right, Mr. Henri will be ONE on Tuesday. I seriously have no idea where that year went. I was pricing some of his newborn clothes for a garage sale and was so teary eyed I could barely see.

I have the design done for his invites (the party will be later in August when my mom comes…), but have to construct most of them still.

Here they are.

Poor little guy was so jaundice when he was born that the collage looks like the color was off!

He has been certainly keeping me on my toes lately and getting into everything. Hard to believe this sweet guy..

…could be such a trouble maker!

As for Darby and Zoe, they have been keeping busy as well. Zoe is down to her last three days of summer school. Thank god! That has been a trip and a half getting her up every morning and out the door. She has had some fun though, including making this wonderful set of armor.

Darby has been swimming like a fish and hanging out with friends (and whining about not swimming or hanging out when doing anything else…). Here she is at the Atwood Fest last weekend.

I have had a little time to work too and am working on stockpiling frames and coasters. I found some super cute Japanese inspired papers which are making adorable coasters and will also be finding their way on to bracelets and barrettes.

Besides all of that, we have been working on cleaning the house and yard and now have to deal with a dead Corolla in the driveway. It certainly is always something. At least we have the van so it isn’t like we have nothing to drive, but it is still annoying.

Now I have to go get ready to go to the OB to check on the other girl! She is a mover and shaker and Jerome said he could even feel her moving around when I was cuddling with him, asleep. So sweet… We are 25 weeks along already and I am officially starting to get the point where it is sinking in that we are having another baby. yikes… So much excitement, but of course mixed with worry. Things will all work out, I know they will.
