Connor's 8th Birthday Party

Since Connor' birthday falls on Thanksgiving this year, we had his party early. He had 21 friends join him at The Living Planet Aquarium. It was a great party!

Ian's Birthday

Today is Ian's 4th birthday. He is such a fun-loving, affectionate boy. He makes us laugh and he makes us feel loved. He melts my heart when he says out of the blue: "Mom, I love you." Kim and I are continually amazed at his creativity and unique personality. He questions everything! He looks at the world in very different ways than we do and he enjoys the simple things of life. For example, he could choose any place he wanted to eat for his birthday dinner tonight and he chose Carl's Jr. And afterward he just wanted to come home and have his Cookie Monster cake. He got his bicycle (with training wheels) for his birthday -- mostly so he can keep up with Connor. We love Ian and enjoy rediscovering the world through his eyes.
