Happy Birthday Reese!!!

Reese with his watch from Papa and his other presents...

Reese's requested space cake... a rocket. He thought it was going to take off when we lit the *engine* candles! Hmmm...


Reese this morning opening his present from us. Daddy also went and got him balloons early this morning.
Whew, now we have a 6 year old--amazing. He is a great little guy. Learning so much this year and becoming an outgoing boy. He is thoughtful of his brother--asking often if he is okay and watching him so he doesn't get hurt. He is always the one to try to make everyone happy if we are with the cousins and there is fighting over toys. Reese loves listening to stories on his mp3 player and enjoys telling me all about them. He still likes to play in the dirt and loves to spend an afternoon exploring and digging in the backyard.

Whoops...

Reese was just walking along and *whack* he ran into the end of a wall... People always ask kids when they get hurt if the other object got hurt--in this case it applies! His face cracked the wall!!!

Another Playdate...

We were lucky enough to get to go to our old college town today and meet up with old buddies. The kids got to see some friends too and seemed to pick up where they left off last year... We didn't make them sit for the above picture, they were busy with their balls and then had to sit down to watch some other people fly kites and it was pretty much monkey see monkey do--one would sit, they would all sit and then as soon as one started to get up they'd all get up.
Fun day!

Girl Time

These girls all came for a very fun IKEA getaway weekend last weekend (just haven't posted about it yet) and stayed with us. I was fortunate enough to get to join them them in their excursion sans kids. We felt like we were 19 again!

Playdate at Oma's...

The boys and I are at Opa and Oma's for 2 weeks...
Today we had a play date with Ian. So we had a 6, 5, and 4 year old. They all had to wear boots and later bare feet. Lots of noise and giggling...

Blowing bubbles on the big rocks.
