Welcome to my party of six, or more specifically my family of six. Out to dinner tonight for my 41st birthday with my family, the hostess asked, "how many?" I had to think for a moment, my newest addition to our family was only 20 days old, and this was our first venture out with our "new" family. "Six, party of six", I replied. The gravity of our new family size hit me, and thus my new blog for our new family had a name. Welcome to our new adventures as we start our new family life!

Michael's Birthday!






Michael's birthday was on a Thursday.  He turned one.  We had a great morning.  Mark went and got a cake from Wal Mart while I gave Michael a bath and put him in his birthday onesie.  Lizzy carried him downstairs.  We had cake as a family for breakfast.  It was a great morning.  We gave him this great mechanical toy with moving gears and an awesome mickey mouse scooter that was an airplane.  I had to go to work, and Michael and the kids played all day!  Another milestone passed for the little one.
Things about Michael:
He loves grapes.
His favorite show is Curious George.
He loves chaos and playing with his brother and sister.
His first word was bump when he was in the van going over bumps.
He loves to play in his room.
He loves to write on anything if he can get ahold of a crayon or marker, even a pencil will do.
He loves his bottle and only drinks water and milk.
He brings out the best in all of his siblings.
He is the best thing to hit the Phipps Household since 2006, We love you Michael Hawk!!!!
