Birthday Babies

So, I know it’s been awhile for those of you who have been reminding me. . . thanks, but I didn’t forget. I just have to prioritize and blogging is pretty much last on the list. I’ve had a crazy work schedule. Only having to work 3 12 hour days a week and be full time has its pros and cons. Usually that allows for a break inbetween. However, my 3 days of work ran back to back for the past 2 weeks and I worked 6 out of 7 days. I was exhausted!! (and NOT blogging!) Wednesday night, David picked me up from work and we drove to WV – arriving around 2:30 am. It was definitely a quick trip to West Virginia to play music for our friends’ wedding. Sorry to any of you WV friends that we didn’t get to see (actually “all” of our WV friends because we didn’t make any visits outside of family). We stayed busy busy. I was soo tired the whole time and when we got back. We drove back Saturday after the wedding – got home around 1:30 am. Needless to say, all 3 of us took a loooong nap after chrch on Sunday. Then the work started again! But, I’m off for a few days. Hopefully I’ll get caught up with blogging my pictures. I’ll be doing different days in pieces though.

It was good to see all of the fam though. Sarah and Colt are too cute together. Sarah got soo excited when she first saw Colt. She was all smiles and laughing and grabbing him. She pretty much loved him too death the whole time we were there. It reminded me of Heath loving me too death when we were little. I know I cried when I saw him coming because he would hug and kiss me more than I appreciated :-) haha. Maybe that’s where Sarah gets it from?

Anyways, so we all know that Sarah’s birthday was last month and Colt won’t “actually” be 1 until August 2. . . but don’t be a party pooper!! We went ahead and got a cake since the miles separate birthday celebrations “on time” in this family. Plus, Aunt Gail and Stacy and their fams got them both these adorable little matching outfits. Of course, we couldn’t resist pictures! It was quite the entertaining show.
Sarah already did this once – so that makes her a pro right? Colt was a little skeptical at first, but he followed her lead . . . a bit over the top as you will see.


Such a little princess! Sarah is a great little gal! She’s so sweet and happy all of the time! Not to mention cute as a doll right?! She took right to all 3 of us right away. It was good to see her brother Jacob too. He was helping us watch them while all of this was unfolding. He’s a great big brother and can make the babies laugh like no other!



Yeah, so this is all the mess that little dainty girl made! Just a like wet rag for the face and she was all clean! We don’t know how she did it actually. . . Colt was on a whole different level of messy!! But, he is a boy right? So, I should be getting used to this?


I really hope they didn’t eat that much!! I think some “older” people (aka David and Jacob) may have snuck around and pinched off some pieces too :-) I was expecting a tummy ache in Colt’s near future though. He ended up doing fine.

We pretty much just wrapped him up and went straight to the tub. . . which David just got in there with him. The bath water wasn’t too clean for long with all of that cake and icing everywhere. I really couldn’t tell how much he ate or smeared everywhere. I know it wasn’t good for him though! It was precious and priceless, but I don’t think he’ll ever be feeding himself cake again (atleast not for like 4-5 years!!) haha.



Speaking of “birthday babies,” my #1 Baby’s birthday is coming right up – June 12th!! Sure do you love you Babes!
