I spy with my little eye...a piece of chewed gum in jar of animal crackers:


(Exactly what you would expect to find when you get out the snack, right?)

nap time

Evidently a day spent with just Joel and the big kids was just a bit too much...

In case you missed it, Zeke turned one. What the what? How did that happen already? None of us can believe that Baby Z is officially Toddler Z now. Here is how his big day unfolded:


The day started with a trip to the park and a cookie...


...which Joel tried to steal.


Then some swinging time. His favorite park activity.


We got "booed" by some neighbors that afternoon. He was pretty excited about the candy. (Have you noticed his shirt yet? Aren't I crafty?)


He had mini bathtub cakes since that is his very favorite place to be.


And, as you can tell, he was pretty excited about his cake.


Still excited.


Not so sure yet about his cool new car.


There we go. Now he's happy.

Happy birthday, Zeke. We think you are pretty awesome!
