So these binky's look familiar to something hanging around our house. Until Jace turned 2 they were readily available at all times. Then I decided that he could only have them when he slept so they along with his blankey stayed in his bed. He would sneak them sometimes and I am a pushover and just loved to see him cuddly so I rarely took them away, they just didn't leave the house. Well the other day Jace was biting at me and I noticed the space between his teeth. I knowing a lot about teeth and KNOWING that a Binky or bottle are bad for kids ignored my greater instincts and let my baby suck a pacifier for 2 years too long. So now after all this time he has a one day count down until we have a disposal ceremony. I thought we would wait until there was another baby to take over the sucker, but I can't let them destroy my Jacey's teeth any longer. So if your baby sucks on something, pay close attention if you care about their teeth, I wish I would have been more aware even with my knowledge.

Race Car Ralley Birthday Party
Forgive me for not getting these in order but here are a few pics of Gabe's Birthday Parties. Like I said, on Saturday, I have no photos to post. On Sunday all of the Phillips fam came over for a little cake, so I made 2 cakes, one race car, one track with candy bar race cars. Lots of fun making those cakes!
Gabe opened his presants in his race car.

What do you think Gabe got for his Birthday? RACE CARS
He had a hard time blowing out the candles!
Most of the kids all in their race cars
playing follow the leader with Grandma
Baby Paige showing off her race car
Jace in someone's car
Gabe thinks this jump is for him. Really we raced matchbox cars down the ramp, but in the mean time the kids had fun jumping off it in their race cars.

Our kick off to SUMMER!
Back in May the day school got out we took the kids to the Zermat Resort in Midway for a little vacation. It was so much fun and the kids had a blast. We swam a lot, went to a few parks and watched a little Tom and Jerry. It was fun for all of us to just hang out, the hotel was comfortable and the pool was clean. We had fun playing with our waterproof camera.
Strawberries for Jace
so a few months ago I came home with a big box of strawberries and Jace thought they were yummy. Isn't he cute, he kept taking bites out of one at a time and setting them aside. Late post that I wanted to share!

Happy Birthday Gabey!
Today was Gabe's Magical Birthday. He turned 5 on the 5th! Anyways, we asked Gabe what he wanted to do for his birthday and of course he said RACE CARS! so Mike remembered when he was a little boy and loved to go to Trafalga and ride the go-carts. So we took the boys there and had a blast. It was so fun, we golfed too and got a little arcade in but the go-carts took the cake. Golfing with kids would be fun if you weren't stressed to go fast so the people behind you don't have to wait. Anyways, FUN FUN FUN.
We took a ton of pictures which I would LOVE to show you all BUT. . . When we got home I was busy and Mike was napping. . . the rest of the story is bad so prepare yourselves. Gabe was looking through the pictures and I kept hearing him play the movie of the go-carts and movies from the fireworks last night. Then he came to me and handed me the camera, "fix it mom." I turned it on and pushed the view button and it said NO IMAGES. He deleted all of the pictures from the 4th the balloon festival, past pictures that I don't even know not to mention all of our cute birthday pictures. I felt sick to my stomach and started to cry. He grabbed me around the neck and hugged me big, then said "It's ok mom, buy a new camera." Oh what a boy, he doesn't know pictures are priceless. Well I got over it and now I have this sweet memory of Gabe. I guess we'll just have to go back to the race cars soon and heck, there will be another 4th of july next year right? (I do have some releif, I took pictures with my other camera too, so hopefully I didn't miss out on too many memories).
We LOVE our Gabey Baby and his sweet personality. He adds so much to our home and I am so thankful he is mine. HAPPY BIRTHDAY GABE!
