The Cake

It is a Leonardson family tradition, just like in most families I'm sure, that on the first birthday the child gets their own little cake to enjoy. We take cute pictures of the messy child and all laugh and enjoy the moment. Well, in true Leonardson fashion, we of course have to take it a step further...
Starting with Isabella, Darin would put frosting in their hair and spike it up for the pictures...
Why would Logan be any different...notice the blue color? Ya, that was fun...
Of course, this time it might have gone a little too far...something tells me this is the same picture we will be getting on his 16th birthday only it won't be blue frosting!
The clean up was the best part, I think Logan got the biggest kick out of it. He laughed through the whole thing.

Logan's Pirate Birthday

So I have to confess, I really wanted Cameron to have a Pirate Party but he refused. So the next best thing you ask? Force the theme on the unsuspecting 1 year old...it came out fabulous!
Logan really seemed to enjoy all the decorations, and the table cloth actually stayed on the table.
All our wonderful friends and family came to help celebrate with us. It was suggested by my very smart friends to do presents first since cake would surely send all the kiddos over the edge. It became a free for all and Logan had more help then he could have asked for.
Darin had to hold him up so that people could get a look at the birthday boy amongst all the presents and helpers.
to be continued......

Almost 3!

For some reason this morning, Cam just looks older to me. I quickly got a glimpse of him in the future...no more baby.

Ouch!

So apparently running downhill, on concrete, in crocs sounds like fun to an almost 3 year old. Not so fun when he face plants, scrapping his upper lip, causing his teeth to cut the inside of his mouth, almost knocking out his two front teeth, and bleeding all over his mother in the middle of the park. AHHHHHHH!!!!

Spaghetti Fun


I think most parents have a picture like this but it's just so cute! Why do they all love it so much?
