4th Birthday!

Wow, I am really far behind! Sorry about that :)

Connor is 4!

Madi has to supervise gifts.

Lots of fun things to play with! 

3 layer chocolate and vanilla cake with chocolate buttercream made by yours truly.

The bulldozer had chocolate covered raisin "rocks" and a road of crushed Oreos.

Connor LOVES it when people sing to him.

Not really.

Those star candles were tricky.

It was a checkerboard cake. 

Wilton makes the checkerboard pan.

Breakfast With The Bunny

Last weekend, we went to Breakfast With The Bunny!

Connor loved the Easter Bunny! We were one of the first ones there, and the Bunny came out to visit us early. I didn't get a picture of it, but Connor went running to him and gave him a huge bear hug, arms and legs around him, nearly knocked the poor Bunny over :)

Quick Visit to Fair Oaks

On Sunday, we made a quick visit to one of our favorite places, Fair Oaks Farms. They had a small model train show going on. There's not a lot to do there during the winter. The outside play areas are closed (of course).

We did see one calf being born. This solid black boy wasn't getting any attention from his momma, so the next to calve momma took care of him :)

Muffin Tin Monday - The Arctic (sort of)

Today's Muffin Tin Monday is "The Arctic". For lunch, Connor had:

A boulder sandwich from the Chuggington book, "Snowstruck Wilson"
- Brownberry Honey Wheat Sandwich Thins
- Mayo
- Cracked pepper turkey
- Cheddar Cheese

Apple slices

Yogurt raisin snowballs

Blue vanilla pudding with silver snowballs

Marshmallow snowballs

Yeah, a lot of snowballs...

After looking at some of the other entries, I could have done a lot better. Someone did penguin sandwiches. I have that penguin cutter, didn't think about it until it was too late. Someone did whale cheese crackers, I just saw those last week and didn't get them. Oh well, he enjoyed it and that's all that matters!

See the other Arctic entries here!
