My baby Anna turned 5 today! It's official. She's getting so grown up! She had her first "kid party" on Sunday at her gymnastics school. They did bounce houses and gymnastics, then had cupcakes that she made. Her and her friends had a blast.

"Not today, but we will be tomorrow."
Anna's reply when I asked her and her brother if they were hungry (it was lunchtime).

Anna and Ethan started pre-school last week. This is Anna's 3rd year at Montessori school, and Ethan's first! They are in the same class together since they group 3-6 year olds together. They go M-W-F, 12:30-3:30. I am loving my alone time. It's good to know Anna is there to take care of her little bro. Ethan seems to be doing well, even though he asks for me to come with him every time we're getting ready to go. He is still very much attached to mom, and I must say I got a little teary-eyed dropping him off the first day. The attachment is mutal I guess. And while we're on the topic of kids growing up...Anna has 3 loose teeth!! Two on bottom, and one top front tooth. The two bottom ones look like they be out within a month. I am shocked that this is happening already! One huge milestone I was NOT ready for. Here are some shots of the kids on Day 1 of school (remember to click to see larger if you want!):

I do! I have to share this site...It's called Ellu. The owner, Leslie, designs and hand sews unique and colorful handbags - in all different shapes and sizes. I was lucky enough to get to design the website, and my colleages at Belniak Media did a wonderful job programming it. The site turned out beautifully, and her purses look fabulous! Now off you go...start shopping...you deserve it! =)

I designed some scrapbooking stuff to apply for a designer call at Catscrap.com as a designer. I was not picked, but received very encouraging words from the women there. They loved my work, but they wanted a larger portfolio of work to see, and I just don't have it yet. Maybe when life slows down I will have time to pursue this some more. I am still freelancing with a web design firm called Belniak Media, selling and designing custom birth announcements online at Reliable Photo, and of course taking care of my family! Next month, and September and October I will be the proud mom of a 3 year old and a 4 year old! Then Anna turns 5 the end of October. I still can't believe I'm about to have a 3 and 5 year old. Two and 4 just sounds so much younger to me.
