The Birthday Party

Wow! What a weekend. We celebrated your birthdays on Saturday and had a blast! Combining the parties into one worked wonderfully. Your theme was Construction Trucks and you loved it. Dadda was amazed that Momma could make construction cute! I borrowed a lot of tools, the air hose and even an orange cone and pulled it off! All our friends and family that made it had a good time and the weather was nice and cool. Probably the only birthday you will ever have in July that it is 70 degrees outside!!!

Lots of Yellow, Black and Orange! Our house turned into a construction zone!

You loved your construction cake. It even had a caution tape striped surprise on the inside. 

Lots of good food and family and friends. We even had a port-a-potty sign for the bathroom door!

How did this happen?!

On the cusp of your birthday party I am looking back going, How.Did.This.Happen!? It was like a whirlwind and poof! y'all were turning 1 and almost 3.  Here is a little bit about what we did the last month and lots of pictures to document. Enjoy!

You LOVE to read. Your most favorite spot is curled up by the window in the bedroom playing and reading together. 

OUTSIDE! Now that Liam is walking he follows Nathan everywhere. Nathan's favorite place is out in the backyard getting dirty and muddy. Y'all wait by the door asking to play out front while we anticipate Dada's arrival home from work. You eat dirt sometimes, yeah, but it hasn't affected you too much!

One year of great memories. How it flew! That is one day old through one year old  for you, Liam. 

Cake Smash!
Nate, you helped Liam figure out how to get messy with his cake.
But you also helped him wash up. 

How grown up Nathan is now! You actually pose for pictures now. My handsome 3 year old!

We had a wonderful 4th of July party with our small group from church. Nate, you weren't a fan of getting in the pool because you were afraid of going down the drain. Liam enjoyed floating with Momma and Dadda in the pool and did great for your first time in a pool. Other than that we had lots of good food and fun. 

This is the Fathers Day card you helped me make for James this year. You didn't appreciate the ties...I told you, just wait until you are older!
