Daddy is 30 something....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY!!

Sorry you had to go to Dallas on your birthday.  Hopefully you get some good bbq and tacos tonight.  We will be ready to celebrate with you at the lake this weekend.

Birthday Party 1

Last weekend we got to go to 2 toddler birthday parties.  One in Greenville for Easton and one down the street for once of Avery's schoolmates.  More on the second one later.

First up was the tall slide.

I think she had fun.  She must have done it 15 times.

 In one of the rooms they had a mini basketball court.  I couldn't turn down the opportunity to teach Avery how to dunk.

 We tried to get Easton and Avery to take a picture with each other, but Easton kept on tackling Avery and tickling her.

 They even helped each other inside one of the obstacle courses.  Avery would push Easton over the obstacle.

 And Easton would try to pull Avery up on the other side.

 Eating pizza and cake.

It's my Daddy's Birthday!

Saturday was Robert's birthday and he decided to start the celebration early by splitting some logs.  We had a dead pine tree removed from the backyard and kept the wood for our awesome new fire pit (almost complete..just after Rob's b-day... great timing).

So while he woke up the neighbors, Avery and I made a trip to Publix.  We HAD to get Daddy a chocolate cake and party balloons.  She was sooo excited when she saw the little carts.  "Look Mom, I can reach the handle!!"  (She usually gets bored from riding in the cart and wants to help me push, but has to walk on her tippy toes to reach the handle).

It was good that the store wasn't busy because she was steering all over the place, full of excitement and eager to have me put things in the cart.  When someone would smile at her, she would quickly tell them it was her daddy's birthday today and she was getting him a cake and balloons.  Just precious :)
Side note:  Lately, she likes to clarify for people, that Daddy is her Mommy's husband.

This pic was snapped on our way to the potty.  Girl is on a mission.  I think I may have to go to Publix from now on, it's just too cute.
