Kansas!!

Saturday we are going to be making the (very long) 8 hour drive to see Mikeys family in Kansas. Were taking Mikes Nefew, Zane up there with us as well. He is 6 and has been visiting his mom in texas for the summer. His dad lives in Kansas so were just going to haul him up there too. Might as well :) Two kids... In a small economy car.... for 8 hours... YAAAY....

Natalies Birthday is on the 20th so were probably going to be having a little get together sometime while we are down there to celebrate. We got Natalie this toy that is like a farm themed music board. She can push the animals and it says what they are or the number and it was like.. the cow moos 2 times.. and makes the moooo sound twice (1-5) Its super cute! She can use it when she practices her sitting because its too big for her to pick up. (she always falls when she can grab stuff and put it in her mouth. she just goes down like a tree and doesnt even care...) That farm toy also attaches to one of those walk behind toys to help baby practice walking. She cant use that yet at all but, I figure it there when she needs it :) She just hold onto the handles for ballance and when she walks it rolls. It makes farm noises when it moves too so its pretty interactive...

Im going to try and shape her birthday cake into the hat from the cat in the hat... but, Im not sure if I can or not... I may end up just drawing the hat on a white cake with colored iccing or something.. That will be one of those last minute things im sure.
