Sebastian's Super Party

Today marks the 3rd year we have had Sebastian in our lives. I can't really remember what life was like without him. We had a birthday party over the weekend with some of his friends at Leap Frog. We went with a Superhero Theme which included little monogrammed capes for his Super Friends. I found a great tutorial for a no-sew cape pattern at Craft & Fabric Links. I think they were a big hit. So, without further ado: here are some pics of my little man's Super Party...

Can you find the birthday boy in the picture below?

There he is!

Of course, Big Brother Jackson had some fun of his own!

4th of July Fun

We celebrated the 4th at Windermere during their Freedom Celebration. We all had a great time at one of my favorite places on Earth.

Blessed are the Peacemakers

So, for the most part Jackson and Sebastian get along great. They are playing together from the time they get up to the time they crash at bedtime. There is, however, a little territorial problem when it comes to the art supplies. They both LOVE to play with markers, the unwashable ones, of course! Bryan and I thought we had tossed every one of them away, low and behold 4 magically appeared this morning. THAT'S why they call them Magic Markers!!! So, while I was laying down I could hear them fussing and wrestling over what I was sure would be a manageable mess. Well, the carpet is embellished with green and pink now and no about of Shout will be getting the colors off of Sebastian's white shirt. So, I took them both, messy hands, messy faces and bedazzled shirts to some retail therapy.

So, at Target I bought 2 notebooks, 2 boxes (separate brands) of 64 crayons, 2 boxes of WASHABLE markers. Then we hoofed it to Hobby Lobby where I got 2 white photo boxes and whatever stickers the boys chose. We went home and they crafted their own art boxes. Behold their new custom-made treasures:
