It was a lot of fun, and we beat the rain. The grandparents came bearing gifts, along with Aunt Sara and her friend Ashley, and Aunt Jennifer and cousin Aiden. Derek had been looking forward to their 'party' at Tom's Farms all week. The boy thinks it's as much fun as Disneyland, which is great because it saves us a lot of money.
Aunt Jennifer & Maria feeding the birthday babies some french fries
Everyone loves having a little girl in the family! Especially the grandpa's!
What is this on your face, grandpa?
(That's ranch dressing on Jilli's lip.. she loves french fries & ranch!)
Mmmmmm, cupcakes!
James is like the chubby dinasuar on Land Before Time, Spiketail. He loves food!
Time for presents...
That's mine, brother!
More attempts at a family picture...
I think this guy is due for his first haircut!
So more about the birthday kiddos...
James is a happy happy guy. But he needs to learn to be a man. He cries over everything. sorry Jimmy boy, but it's true.
Has 8 teeth
Won't touch baby food, only applesauce
Loves to eat everything, except eggs. He hates them!
Loves to dance
Plays so well on his own... very independent
Says Dadda, a lot!
Loves to be tickled.
Loves wrestling with Derek
Doesn't hold still at all! Ever! (Just like Derek)
Jillian is so serious. She thinks the world revolves around her.
She has 8 teeth
Also hates baby food, but loves eggs!
Loves to be held and cuddled
Loves dolls & her blankie
Also loves wrestling with Derek
Screams if she doesn't get her way
These guys keep me busy. BUSY. Sometimes I hate it! I'm serious, I do. But most times I love it.
They're crazy. We have a crazy life. But it's getting to be more fun as they grow up.
