Celebrate!

 Ok so this post is a little late, but better late than never. 

Last weekend we had the pleasure of hanging out with some old friends to celebrate this little man.

It seems like only yesterday we had all gathered to celebrate his first year of life and now he is two! 

He might be a little conflicted about his actual age, when you ask him he holds up one figure will saying the number 2, 

but there is no doubt about it, he is definitely turning into a little man.  

I wish we could stop them from getting so big, just for a moment.  It’s just the pace at which they are growing is at times overwhelming. 

 Sometimes I just want to squeeze these little babies but then I have to stop and realize that they aren’t so much little babies anymore and they would much rather dodge my advances and direct their attention to more interesting things.  

Like:

Wadding pools….

Slip-n-slides

...Pinatas.....

...Presents....

 ......CAKE!

 I was lucky because not only did my children have a blast but I got to indulge my need for babies by loving on some that were present at the party.

This is Ethan.  He had the most breathtakingly beautiful blue eyes.

I wasn't the only one who fell instantly in love.

 This one is only a month old.

 Last time I saw Sunee baby Bannick was still safely cooking inside her belly.

Now he has arrived and he is precious.  He looks just like his Daddy I must say.

I am so happy that we all still live relatively close to each other (at least for the time being).  

Being able to see all of our kids together is such a blessing.  

Happy Birthday Gavin!

I can't wait until next year!
