Happy Birthday Izaac!!!!!

Izaac is two years old today. Ariadnee was over, cause it is monday and mama takes care of all of us on mondays. We went to the grocery store this morning, got food and a cake for izaac. I picked the cake, but he wanted the ladybugs off a huge cake, so mama asked if they had any for the small cake, and they gave her some to put on the cake i picked out.
We had a fun day, played outside alot, the sky was cloudy, mama worked on the yard. we had a sprinkler system put in while mama, papa and zac were in michigan, and now mama is working on the yard. We have a corner that used to be a flower garden but now had 3 years of weeds growing - actually killed one of the rose bushes- that mama has pulled and totally cleaned up. She bought some dirt to add to the garden - she says the dirt that is there is too heavy and needs lighter dirt. whatever... So that is about all she has left to do in that corner before she plants some bushes and flowers, which she says can wait till the fall. There is also another small flower garden that she needs to clean and prepare for "bulbs" and she is going to try and move some rosebushes from the middle of the yard to this flower garden. She says she doesn't expect the roses to transfer, but she has to try. Then she is going to take out some small strips of garden that run right along the house and put in gravel - supposedly there isn't supposed to be a ton of water (like for flowers) right up against the house. And she likes the idea of low maintenance.
This eve we had dinner and then sang izaac happy birthday - just us and ariadnee and aunt anjee. It was nice. Izaac is so good at waiting and then blowing out his candles. He is totally aware that it is HIS birthday (even without presents!).
Mom went on her monday mtn bike ride last monday - skipped today because of zac's bday, and it was raining. She had a great time last week. Dada has been on 3 or 4 rides this week, other than to work and back. He is really happy right now!
Later.....
