a boy celebrates

this little man ...

 

 

 

celebrated a birthday this week!

 

we've been super busy celebrating

birthdays!

he's ten...

 and...

she's seven.

Eleven?

last week..

my baby celebrated his eleventh birthday!!

wow.

actually, we celebrated twice...

(seems like this is starting to be a trend)

once, the day before with all his cousins.

this of course meant we needed to make a cake...

and EVERYONE needed to help.

the second birthday celebration was a little bit simpler.

since his real birthday fell on Ash Wednesday..

which is a day of fast and abstinence...

(this means no eating meat or eating between meals)

he had..

salmon cakes and homemade mac n cheese for dinner...

complete with singing and a candle.

Sunday was Birthday day...

and this little lady turned eight!

Bubba turns 3

turning three is tough...

really, really, tough.

the toughest part is trying to keep your cool, while dad takes pictures...

and your cousins on the other side of the table (and cake)

taunt you..

you know this is going to be a battle...

the battle of who blows out YOUR candles..

its you or them...

you've got to keep your eyes on them...

cause they are quick to the draw...

really quick

and hey, its only your first day of being three...

this stuff takes practice!!

so, when you lose the battle, you strike back with all you've got...

yes, this is WAR!

you may have lost that battle....

but not the war!

blow them out kid...

as fast and as furious as you can!!!

and enjoy the rest of YOUR day!

Happy Birthday Bubba!
