Celebrating Sondra!

Today I had the honor of helping Sonrda's Husband Chip with throwing her a surprise party. The unique thing about this luncheon was that, with the exception of 2 non-separating babies, there were no children. The select guest have 21 children (including Eddyblouins), so this was a feat. So much of a feat that the birthday girk had to be stalled in town after getting a ride with Cathy, because John was dropping our kids off at her house for the day, and had to beat her back to our house!! But it all came off, and she was indeed surprised!! YEAH!
The delicious cake I baked at 180 Degrees F for 40 minutes before figuring it out!

Happy Birthday to you!

Goofy Face Eddyblouin. Both of us


Dooood! Allison will clean my fridge!


hmmm--a lot of bad things happened in 1971! Dead Cosmonauts, that crazy guy in California being sentenced, war protests. . .


Chloe and Cathy gets cozy while Phil is cool and aloof.



The afternoon ended with a massage train. It was really time to stop!

Happy Birthday!

It's amazing what happens in a year!! cooing, smiling, grabbing, sitting, eating, crawling, standing, cruising, almost walking! Lots of hair for an Eddyblouin, 4 teeth, deep throated belly laugh, bathtub splashing, lego ingesting. Blaise is a lovely, and well loved baby!
