I'm a little late with this but, oh well.

My sweet baby Jack is 3!

Jack LOVES Super Mario Bros. so I decided to make Starman cookies - he loved them!
I also made a one-up mushroom cake but while we were visiting with my parents in the living room, Jack decided to get a closer look at the cake and poked two big holes in the side of it and it collapsed!

by request, green birthday pancakes

I can't believe he is 3!
Happy Birthday, we love you Jack!!

October/November Updates

We haven't been doing much in our household lately but we always *seem* so busy, time certainly goes by too fast. Here is a little update on the Ericksons.

getting ready to go out after the first snow of the season

The preferred cat of the household, Jimmy, she loves the kids and pretty much lets them do anything they want with her. I can always find her snuggled up with one of the kids in bed each evening.

Lunch with Wes for 1st grade parents luncheon

heading out to play after the first snowfall

this was *supposed* to be his Halloween costume but he wouldn't wear it that day, now i can't ever get him to NOT use this stuff!

Saturday morning wrestling match...well, everyday is wrestle-mania around here

Have you noticed Jack has a sword in EVERY SINGLE PICTURE? Wes and Jack play made up warrior games CONSTANTLY! It's super cute and I'm enjoying watching their creativity blossom plus, they really enjoy playing together! Yea!

A Makeover and Halloween

It was about time for a haircut for this boy...

Curly Jack - before

No more curls - after

Wesley the Warrior

He was pretty pumped about wearing this costume, he's been wearing it everyday since I bought it for him! Jack has the same costume in silver but he only carries the sword. He wouldn't wear it trick or treating but we finally got him to put on the helmet for about 5 minutes. They both had fun going to the casino for candy and later Wes and I went door to door in downtown Walker so he could experience 'real' trick-or-treating - he liked doing that better than the casino, I think we'll do that next year!

Morton.

Meet Morton Koopa Jr.

This is who my son, who will be turning 3 in 30 days, would like to have on his Birthday cake AND dress up as for Halloween!

Everything is about this Super Mario Bros. World Six Boss! Every time Jack plays pretend he is either playing as this guy or trying to defeat him.

I'm having a hard time trying to come up with ideas, hopefully I'll get lucky and come up with something good for Jack, until then I am at a complete loss!
