Marlon was enjoying some prunes and milk and chit chatting away. Of course none of that comes through in this video and in the end he covers the lense as if the paparazzi have been too much for him!

Happy Birthday Justin

Justin celebrated hid birthday all week lon a la Monika style! He got great gifts, went to a concert with friends and saturday had all his favorite things to ea (special trip to Krispy Kreme included). Noli & I (with a little help from Marlon with the cocoa powder) made him a chocolate cake with caramel & a chocolate sauce. She kept requesting we make in a tiger shape, but I was at a loss on how to do that...

cake prior to chocolate sauce, not really pretty but tasty!

why wouldn't you wear masks?

Just because they are cute:

Lastly, we took the kids to vote, but didn't manage to get a good photo. They loved their "future voter" stickers.

Who put the quarter in her?

Our friend Laura watched the kiddos some weeks back and they watched a movie. Noli was glued to the movie and when it was over Laura said "I was like 'who put the quarter in her?' This morning was like that and here is a little bit of proof. She was singing a made up song for about 3-4 min before I started recording. She started off singing about monsters and ended with princesses and dragons--my girl!
