I forgot to really mention birthdays in my little catch up post. Can I just say we celebrate every event numerous times. We have recently started only celebrating Thanksgiving once a year...in the past we were known to go to numerous places for Thanksgiving...although we do celebrate in October with our Canadian Friends. It's a great way to get to eat Thanksgiving food early. We go to seven Christmas celebrations, we had seven easter egg hunts,etc. So of course we don't just do birthdays once. The boys birthdays are only a monthe apart. Instead of having family make 2 trips this year we had a combined party for them in the middle of the month in Gatesville. It was a lot of fun. For Cason's birthday here he got to celebrate on Thursday at preschool, then we celebrated on Saturday with friends at the park, then on Sunday (his actual birthday) James made him pancakes for breakfast, he got to pick lunch(Schlotzkys pizza),we had the leftover cupcakes and he received some more gifts at a Super Bowl Party. On Sunday afternoon he got to go with James to the store to pick out a bicycle and helmet. What a great day! Then just two weeks later was the combined party in Gatesville...so we were going through a little Birthdayitis as I called it,he was thinking his birthday was pretty important to say the least. I can't blame him, I think his birthday is a blessing. What a fun four years!
Carter also celebrated his birthday at preschool and then we had friends over on his birthday to eat cupcakes and Schlotzkys pizza. He was not as much aware what all was going on so he didn't party quite so much. He had, of course, already partied in Gatesville. He turned two! He's also a blessing.
We are so very blessed to have two amazingly beautiful healthy boys. We love them dearly and have so much fun playing with them and watching them learn.
