Do you notice Toothless Jim up there? Lately when he tells me stories I just start laughing because he looks so funny with that huge space between his teeth! And he actually has another loose tooth!

Coloring eggs on Easter morning.
While the rest of us were preoccupied with the Easter baskets, baby grabbed the chocolate bunny and took the first bite... this is a simulated photo of an actual event...
These glorious cupcakes are only to be found on Easter. They are chocolate cake with toasted merengue "hats" dipped in Valhrona chocolate.
Happy Birthday PEPS Babies
Jasper's baby friends celebrated their birthdays together at the Children's Museum today. I'm just amazed that a year has already flown by. Our baby friends are all getting so big, learning to walk, starting to say words, and revealing their personalities day by day. It has been so much fun to get to know them all and watch them grow.
And I love all these high achieving moms! Seriously, I have learned so much from them and love it that we can come to a birthday party and be blown away by all the effort and enthusiasm the other moms have poured into it. You would never believe that any of them are "first time moms". I am truly amazed by how confident, wise, sure-footed, and unflappable they all are. It has been a year of shared ideas, creative problem solving, friendship, generousity, and fun adventures.
What a fun party it was with handmade felt crowns, gifts, treats, birthday cards, prizes, etc. Big Brother Will was in attendance and he is well versed on the notion that mom's meetings mean treats galore. He ate not just one vegan donut, but two vegan doughnuts!
Stay tuned for more birthday footage on Jasper's real birthday 5/5/10!

Best I could do to photograph him wearing his organic cupcake hat.
I made these Maple sweetened cupcakes with organic apricot compote and maple butter frosting for the babies. The adults had Mighty O donuts!
All the moms voted for the babies: Future Iron Chef, Future Olympian, Future President of the USA, First to Climb Everest, Class Clown, Most Fashionable, etc.
Will took this photo. It is hilarious because he is just a little guy who couldn't see over the bags and presents on the table! A couple moms didn't make the shot! There are ten moms in our playgroup all with babies born in either April or May.

It impresses me what a busy mom can accomplish in 20 minutes these days. I made this tonight while Paul read the boys some stories.
