Birthday Fun!

Whew! It's been a crazy week for us! This past Monday was my son Lander's birthday. He is 3 years old now, a big boy! His big brother Aidan and my husband's parents (Gigi and Grandpa Jim) came to visit, and everybody had a wonderful time. Here's some pictures from our big day!

A little bit groggy on his birthday morning.

We had our party at church. The boys had a blast!

Arts and crafts with Big Brother and GiGi!

More arts and crafts- this time Daddy joined in!

Time for cake!

GiGi and Grandpa Jim got him an InnoTab2!

Big Brother Aidan helped Lander open his gifts. What a gentleman!

He even helped pick up the trash!

Playing with some new toys!

Went to the pool at GiGi and Grandpa's motel. Lander wasn't so sure about it at first.

So he played with the pool noodle instead.

Big Brother had a cool life vest to help him float!

Daddy tried to talk Lander into swimming.

For a while he resisted.

But GiGi said some magic words and lured him in!

Finally swimming!

The water was really cold!

Big Brother let Lander try on his life vest. Like I said, a gentleman!

 

And of course, what outing would be complete without a little BIP?

 

We were all very sad when Big Brother had to leave on Tuesday, but we are hoping to see him again next month! Today is my in-laws' last day in town, so we'll be having breakfast with them before they hit the road. What a fun, but exhausting weekend/week it has been! Can't wait to do it again next year!
