Happy Birthday Maddux!

We took this picture ten times and could NOT get Austin to look at the camera! As Meat Loaf says though, "Two out of three ain't bad!" :-)

We celebrated Maddux's fifth birthday with a chocolate cake for us and doggie ice cream for him. Aidan was a big help making the cake! He cracked the eggs, poured the oil, water and cake mix and iced it when it was done baking! Both he and Austin were more than happy to help clean up too (well, the utensils anyway!).
I swore I would never let my kids lick the raw batter because of the raw eggs,
but they LOVED it! I guess I'm learning to mellow out some! :-)



One of Austin's favorite things to do is show his "Mad face." Last night, while he fingerpainted with his mashed potatoes, I asked him to make his mad face. For those of you that haven't seen it...
