Zeke turns 2!

I want to cry a little bit at the fact that my baby is 2! 


This little boy has stolen our hearts! He is hilarious, entertaining, and just the cutest, most lovable (when he wants to be), photogenic person I know.....and he's two! And getting so big! And becoming independent! And ahhhhh I could go on and on about his amazingness, but I'll stop there! If you know him you already know.

Since Zeke's birthday fell on a Saturday this year, we were able to have his party on the same day! So cool, even though he wouldn't be getting multiple celebrations like last year or the years to come. 

This year his birthday theme was construction/Tonka trucks.  To say I started planning early is an understatement. I knew this was going to be the theme to his 2nd birthday before I started planning his first birthday! I know I'm nuts! I started buying stuff last Christmas and haven't stopped. 

Here's a peek at the party and some of the details! I thought it turned out great! 








Zeke just loved having his friends there to celebrate with. A bunch of friends at his house? What more could a kid ask for? He was in heaven.




And one last little peek at the cutest birthday boy.....

Baby Zoie and Mama's Baby Shower

This weekend was just fabulous! My mom threw an amazing and all out baby shower for this already spoiled baby girl in my belly!  When we first thought about the theme of the shower, we thought it would only be fitting to go along with the room theme which is very light pastel colors inspired by a couple vintage Barbie pictures I found (more on that later). After much deliberation, we decided to go with a more bold vintage Barbie theme with the colors being black, pink and white with a lot of Barbie silhouettes.  After a million trips to Target, Home Goods, Ikea, Etsy, Tai Pan, Michaels, and Hobby Lobby we had a nice stock pile to start the decorating and planning.  My mom decided to pretty much redecorate her house from floor to ceiling starting with drapery.  She switched out her current drapes for some black and white striped fabric. You would not believe how great the fabric looked without even being sewed!!!! They looked like they belonged.  She also changed...

4th Annual Kirk Klan Ugly Sweater Party

As you can tell by the word annual, this is our Kirk family tradition. We have an ugly sweater party every year for Christmas. We deck out our whole house, garage, ourselves, and have a great time with friends and family. I usually make everything home made with some help from my mom and all her and my grandma's recipes.  This year I wanted to make it as simple but still cute as possible. I decided on a chili bar as the main entree.  I also delegated everyone that would help to make my favorite chili they make. SCORE! Way less work for me! Muahahahaha!  My dad made his tri tip chili, my mom made her white chicken chili, and Brandon made his pulled pork chili.  Besides the fact that we always make way too much food, the chili was definitely a hit. Of course the chefs tested everyone on who they thought had the best chili. They are all delicious in my eyes, obviously!  I did pitch in a little and made some appetizers and corn bread! Oh and I did all the decorating...

How is it even possible?

My baby girl is going to be ONE in a month!!!!!! Ahhhhh. I haven't been in as much awe as I am with the turn of 11 months. The turn calls for crazy days with  a walking baby, lots of party planning, transitions, but always a ton of fun while keeping this mama on her toes!  Yes, like I said, Zoie has officially started walking.  Baby walking is seriously so funny to watch. It's like they waddle and have no concept of bending either their knees or ankles. When she gets super excited she starts to run and it's so cute!   We are starting to transition her to whole milk. I have a feeling it will be rough since we discovered early on that she was protein and soy sensitive, but here goes nothing....  This little girl first of ours is getting into EVERYTHING and learning so much. I just love watching her grow, love on her brother and daddy, and just be so full of fun and laughter!
