The Birthday Boy and Girl

Oh, my goodness! They finally made it. Walker and Kathryn have been waiting for their birthday since, well, Christmas! So, you can imagine how excited they were to see daylight today!

I thought this was the sweetest picture. You can tell they are only half awake. They made it to about 6:45 a.m. which I thought was pretty good! I heard Kathryn get up first and go in Walker's room to tell him it was time to open presents. Good thing I had them ready!!!

We, of course, had to start the day off with candles and a round (or two:) of Happy Birthday! Kathryn's candle is in her "usual"--a cheese stick!


Walker is the one who has been SO EXCITED for his birthday. He gladly blew out his breakfast candle!

After breakfast, we enjoyed a quick visit from Pops who brought the birthday boy and girl a balloon for each! After ballet camp, we enjoyed a yummy lunch at Moe's (kids eat free on Tuesdays--perfect!!) with their friends Michael and Anna! After that, we made a quick trip to Target to let them pick out a birthday goody, and then back home to play with their loot!

After dinner, we enjoyed cupcakes and another couple of rounds of Happy Birthday! I think the day was a success!


Now I have to get over the fact that my "babies" are FIVE, and my real baby will be ONE on Thursday!
