BIRTHDAY BOY

THAT'S RIGHT...YOU'VE BEEN FOLLOWING FOR A YEAR NOW!!
Off the top of my head, can YOU say you've accomplished as much as this little man?
1-gained 20 lbs! LOL (poor you)
2-learned to move around 2 different ways
3-go from sleeping every 2-3 hours to only sleeping ONCE for 2-3 /day
4-get nearly smothered in kisses all day long
5-find someone to spend nearly every waking moment servicing your every need 24/7 (lucky you!)
6-ok you get the idea...

Again the power of digital...take 100 photos and you'll end up with one as cute as this.

Bless Caleb's little heart and all the parents involved in his life for raising him right...sometimes... He and Clay are supposed to be at their mom's this week but a few weeks ago he declared that he wanted to be here on the 10th for Charles's birthday. Good thing he has his family priorities straight, if nothing else, and we'll have to remember that the next time he does something wrong--which I'm sure will be momentarily...LOL (JK Caleb!!)
So to make the extra day together special Steve suggested THEY make the birthday cake! yumm-o!
The boys and Tomas's girlfriend, Stephanie, who joined us for the evening of festivities. And NO, she had NO part in the cake making/decorating what-so-ever...We gals need to stick together. Supposedly it says "Happy Bday CEL" I see the Happy and the B and a C...but well, it's pretty much what I expected. LOL


Charles's one cupcake.



On to a few presents....We're actually having a birthday party for him on the 20th...so if you're around. Stop by for more festivities.
Brains, brawn and snuggles. Love those old fashioned wooden toys! I was thinking of those old pup up Jack-in-the-boxes with the crank. Has anyone seen those around? I suppose if I actually bit the bullet and ventured into a Toys r Us, I might find what I'm looking for but the place scares me.



And Caleb & Clay won these back on Mother's day and saved them for their little baby brother. I'll be darned if some childrearing isn't starting to pay off.

Post us a comment below...What are the toys WE grew up with that I'm forgetting about? AND what you know about summer festivals this summer. I know the Pear Festival is coming up, Gilroy Garlic festival. Thanks!
