You know the song, I fought the Law and the Law won?!? Well just sing it Jake fought the cabinet and the cabinet definatly won!!! I have never in all my years as a mommy seen such a goose egg. It was pulsing, and I think it actually waved at me. After the initial panic and a quick trip to ask the doctors opinion, the little pulsing bugger went down a bit, but was still quite impressive. He got lots of comments at church that eveing, including "Welcome to Manhood Jake. You ain't a man till you had that kinda lump on your noggin". (Rememeber we live in southern Arkansas.) As you can see it didn't keep his spirits down to long. He is a pretty happy baby in spite of the various head wounds he reicieves.

FOUGHT THE CABINET AND THE CABINET WON!!
It's the big number 3 for Savanna! She just had her birthday, and these are some of the highlights. She asked for a horsey birthday cake, and I just really don't like Storebought cake or frosting, so I always opt to make the kids cakes for them. I was a little stumped by how to do a horsey cake, but this is what I came up with. It's actually brownies from scratch with homemade frosting and a carosel horse from the imaginings of Natalie. She had lots of friends over, and got a bubble blowing BBQ from G&G Israel, a new puppy pal, a big barbie book, a sleeping beauty umbrella, and some Barbie movies. From mom and dad, she got a new Dora bike which she affectionatly calls her "Backpack motorcycle". All in all she had a great day, and had lots of fun with her friends and fell asleep on the couch when Audrey and she sat down to watch Alvin and the chipmunks. I don't think she even made it through the opening credits. With binkies, and diapers left behind in the year of 2, she has a bold and excited new outlook for the upcomming year of 3!
To Jakob's credit, he is always looking for new, varied and unusual ways to make a mess. Wether it is dumping the cup of spoons all over the table while poaching somebody's half eaten pizza, or finding Savi's goodie bag of M&Ms, or pulling all of his clothes out of his drawers, he is quite creative. After the 3 time in one day of refolding all his clothes, I came to two descisions. #1 He has to many clothes, cuz it takes forever to refold them all and put them away, and #2 I had better keep the door to his room closed because he really enjoys pulling out his clothes and rolling around in them. Whew, it's a full time job just keeping up with Jake.

This is our fun day at Dollywood. It was 34 degrees and snowing. We rode the flying elephants in a blizzard, and I thought Jakie's nose was gonna fall off it was sooo red. You can see how cold Savi was in the picture. In the picture of Mark with Audrey and Jake you can see the snow flakes. We ended up staying an extra 3 days and buying season tickets so we could enjoy dollywood with some warm weather. It did warm up later in the week, but mOnday was a cold one. We had loads of fun on our spring break, hope you did too!! P.S. Do you love the anguish on Audrey's face because I made her ride the rubber duckies with her baby sister. She was embaressed to be seen on the duckies!
