Birthday Boy

Update: The boys went to the doctor this morning for their 3 year and 6 month checkups. Wesley is tall and skinny at 40 lbs and 43" tall. Jack is big, but proportional at 22 lbs 13 oz and 29" tall!

Wesley turned 3 on the 20th...we've been celebrating a long time!


Opening presents on his real birthday


Concentrating

We had his party at the house. We invited a lot of friends...and they all came! I think we had 25 kids and 50+ people total. It was crazy! I apologize for the lack of good pictures, but I'm sure you understand.


"Coach Rik" entertaining the bigger kids


Lunch time at the construction site - sack lunches with sandwiches, pretzels, and grapes! There were two other tables full of kids!


Note the band-aid on his chin!


Time for cake!


Construction cake with dirt!


Happy Birthday to Wesley! No time to wash hands!


Make a wish!


Cake


Mmm...


Big bite


The best part - getting to play with the 'construction things' from the top of the cake

Wesley and Sadie playing cement mixer - thanks, Grandmama!


Wesley playing blower on the patio - thanks, Joan!

Phew! What a weekend!

Pumpkin Patch

We visited the pumpkin patch at church to pick out the perfect pumpkins for our front yard.


How about this one?


This one can be for Jack!


Jack has one just his size.


Can he pick it up?


Trying to catch them both smiling and looking at the camera...


"A dump truck!" Memorial Drive is behind the camera, so there were lots of distractions.


One more time.

Jack wondering who that baby is in the mirror!

Getting back to normal

We are settling back into our routine. Wesley is back at school, and Jack is showing us new tricks all the time.


Doing push-ups


Starting to sit up. He'll stay up a good 30 seconds to a minute at a time. Note the perfect curled-up form on those toes...I give him a 9.5!
