Our Family Blog – Mike, Louanne, Nadia, Amelie, & Dani

This weekend some of our travel mates were in the area and with some last minute plans we were able to get together on Saturday night. Nadia and I went over to Arthur’s family’s house and we got to have a good little visit. Once Nadia was done being shy they were able to play together on the floor.
I love the chance to get Nadia together with the girls we traveled with and I hope that it continues throughout their lives. All of our families changed on the same day in the same room and I will always feel bonded to them 🙂


Rather than do a bunch of posts I am doing a week in review. It makes it seem like we were so busy, but it really was a more mellow week than we have had in a while, just a lot more fun. 🙂 Early in the week we had a MOM’s group playdate at a very cool park with a toddler area. And we actually took a posed photo of the mommy’s with the kiddos. Notice Nadia with all the boys!
Then Grammie, Nadia and I celebrated our annual birthday lunch at California Pizza Kitchen.

On Friday we met Stephanie and her kiddos at the zoo. We had a great time, but I can’t put any photos up of her wonderful kids until they are officially their parents.

On Saturday morning I went to Mellie’s baby shower at Lauren’s very cute new house.
 
 
Here is the cake that I made for my birthday. I hand made all the pansies out of royal icing. Then I used a cake pan insert to make the checkerboard inside. Fun, huh?
