We took Elle and Hanzies measurements. Elle now weighs 22lbs and Hans is back up to 34lbs. They are both much taller.

Elle is sick of the snow. She wants to go outside.

I had just cleaned the toy room and about 10 minutes with Elle this is what you get. She makes a complete mess. Hans walked in and said baby mess.

Elle bells loves jewelry so for her birthday we go her a necklace. As you can see she love it. I told the kids at school we had decided to get her a Tiffany's necklace, American girl doll Kit and a bitty baby. The girls loved the necklace idea and I think Elle does too.

Our annual birthday celebration at Rainforest Cafe. Mark met us there after work. It is the best place to take kids, I just wish we liked the food. If you know what is good there let us know.

Hans and Elle got the volcano cake. At least this year Hans didn't cry when they put it in front of him. Although he is still not that sure of the sparkler in the cake as you can see by his face.

Hans wanted to climb in and touch the croc. Good thing we don't have them around here. Hans would probably walk up and want to pet it.

Elle bells loves to be held and in this picture she was upset with me because I didn't pick her up.

For friday family night we went to the new Olive Garden. Hans got his favorite foods pasta and breadsticks.

Grandpa came down on Friday for lunch with Mark and the kids. Hans is so spoiled. Grandpa got him a transformer and got me oberweis lemonade and iced tea.
