We ate well and enjoyed lots of living room floor time playing with all the new toys. Super fun to see the kids with their cousin Garret. Lots of running around, laughing and non stop energy to keep the action packed fun flowing.
My mom was amazed with how much more the boys are talking compared to when she was last here in October.
Jett was a master present opener, though it is always hard to open the beautifully wrapped gifts from Uncle Paul. The wrap job is almost...almost the best part of his presents! =-)
Unfortunately it was a very rainy, yucky to be outside week, but we found a small window for bike riding and Pogo sticking. Garret just about mastered his new present and even kept up the practice in the garage.
The boys were enthralled with their birthday balloons, and in fact still are loving running around the house with the balloons chasing them. You can barely see it in this picture with Grandma and Grandpa, but to decorate for the boys birthday we basically TP'd our kitchen and dining room to create a festive feel for their special day. Who needs streamers!
Swimming was the activity of choice for their birthday morning. Being Christmas break, the pool was packed, but tons of fun. I was so proud of Jett to loose his fear and really have fun in the pool finally.
Hopefully he keeps a little fear though, he actually got so relaxed about being underwater that hanging out underwater was all he wanted to do.
It was fun to have my sister in town as well, not only to have Garret here to play but also nice to have time to hang out and chat after the kids were all in bed.
I really like both these pictures of the boys and my parents.
Happy Birthday Calvin and Jett! We love you!!!
