Trooper Cake

The older Maebelle gets, the more pictures there are of me. : )

We were gifted some cake mix by Zac's grandma Trefz.

The kids wanted to make the cake fun. So we decided to do half chocolate frosting and half funfetti frosting! Chocolate for dirt (or maybe mud, I can't remember) and the orangish color for sand.

Then Orion wanted to add Legos.

So he made a kammatrooper scene for us to enjoy before we enjoyed the cake and they took pictures. They had so much fun with it! So thankful for the easy things that please them!

I don't seem to get my camera out enough these days. So dinner on a random evening sounds like a good time. We changed the lights in our dining room and they have almost a spotlight feel to them. 

Then a few day later I was able to get the camera out for an evening of fun. These next few are from the beginning of that evening.

This puppy is getting so big! And this was even a few weeks ago on September 4, I think he's grown since then!

For perspective, Here he is on June 27 in a very similar pose and place:

So at the beginning of September, his head is about up to the tabletop when sitting down. At the end of June, his head was about to the seat of the chair. And I'm pretty sure that, at 5 months old, he's not even close to done growing yet.

My three sweeties:

Orion doing his bow staff again, and always.

I love this family!
