Early Birthdays

While Grama B and Grampa T were here, we all got to celebrate Lilly and Zach's birthday early. That was a lot of fun... this year on Sept 17th Lilly will be turning 3, and October 1st Zach will be turning 2 ! You do the math... yup ... they are only 12 months and 2 weeks (to the day) apart! AAHHHH! Some days I think I am going insane! We had chocolate cake, which the kids devoured...

enjoying the yummy cake!

"more please"


... then it was on to the presents....

Grama B made Lilly this sweet hat...

She loves it!

They also got her a Mrs. Potato head...

which hasn't been put away for 3 minutes each day, they are both using it so much!

Lilly with her hat, her leotard/tutu, and her Mrs. Potatoe head.

She loved her gifts!




Then it was on to Zach...

Eli had to show him the ropes with opening the gift.



Unveiling the huge dump truck!

Zach is officially in love!


He also got a hat and gloves...

lately he loves to put hats on...

it's just he is ready to take it off in a split second!

Thanks again for coming down,

for sharing with the kids,

and for all that you have done for us.

We miss you already and wish you could

live closer to us...

hopefully one day soon!
