Sui is 2!
Sui turned two and is traveling to visit her family in another state of Brazil to celebrate. Her Mom and I talked about doing a cake but we decide that it might be difficult to travel by car with a cake, toddler, and a poodle. So we are celebrating by sending Mickey and Minnie along....Happy Birthday Sui!

Helena turns 8!
I had never heard of I-Carly until I had to put her on a cake for Helena's 8th birthday...
Happy Birthday Helena!
Mel
Mel in Portuguese is honey. And I am told the birthday girl is as sweet as the sugary syrup, her namesake. She loves cats and flowers. And wanted a garden party on Saturday to celebrate!
Happy Birthday Mel!

Tomás Turns One...
Little boys continue to love cars and trucks...Tomás no exception! (And my son was sad to see the order go this morning....).
Beep Beep. Happy 1st Birthday!
Day in the Country
The weekend was simple. I delivered my orders Saturday morning and we hit the road with friends, peeling off the extra layers as the tires rolled out of town and the sun boiled the tops of our thighs through the windshield. Countryside. Peace from car alarms and smog, from securing Georgia's wrist at stop lights--letting her run free.
I think I could leave the citylife behind...for a while anyway.
