Mango Cobbler

Stress is a funny thing...sometimes it makes us lose our appetites all together, and sometimes it makes is eat more than ever. We seem to be going through the latter after our recent earthquakes. Tonight it was mango cobbler. Not as good as peach, but they are the closest equivalent. Two days ago we made a batch of sugar cookies and even splurged and added some of our M&M's that were brought to us by Brad's mom and dad during their recent visit. The cookies are long gone and we made a pretty good dent in the cobbler tonight. I thought about feeling guilty, but when you spend your day timing your husband running up the stairs of your house to see how long it would take to get ourselves and both kids out of the house when the next quake hits, I decided to cut myself some slack and have another bite of cobbler instead.

Anna's 2nd Birthday

Anna celebrated her 2nd birthday on August 23rd. Due to the fact that she is a poor neglected 2nd born child and that she has a forgetful mother, the pictures are just now making the blog. She is becoming quite the little knock-out lately with a sassy little personality to go along with her good looks. She is starting to talk a lot in sentences, but you have to speak "Anna" in order to understand. She hums half of the word in the sentence. "I hmmmmm Oooo Mama!" and "Hmmmm mulk" means I love you Mama and Want milk, in Anna-language. Too cute!
