Monday News

Hard to believe their 2nd Birthday has come and gone. We enjoyed ourselves and made it last all weekend really. Friday we opened a few presents with Grandma Sanft via SKYPE. Then Uncle Tom gave us a call via SKYPE and that was nice as well. We caved and took them to McDonalds for a kids meal for dinner. Is that caving or being lazy so I didn't have to come up with yet another dinner idea? Both really, we don't "do" McD's very often. I make homemade nuggets, quite tasty I might add, and french fries.

Saturday we had some friends come over for a Birthday breakfast. After their nap we had some cake that I baked. It wasn't anything fancy this year (didn't even take it out of the pan) but we were together as a foursome family and I couldn't be more grateful. The video of the candle blowing out was hilarious. I'll have to post it for some laughs. It was just the four of us and it was after an afteroon nap. So all of us really had bedhead because we ALL napped. No real excitement or cheering but it was fun for us.

We also took the kids to the Old Zoo and they had a blast of course. We have some fun photos from that event too. The peacock seemed to be this particular days fascination. I haven't downloaded them from the camera yet, so standby for those.

We haven't opened all the kids gifts yet. Kim, the Doodle board you sent is still waiting to be opened. Kenna really loves the little one she has so this one will be a big hit I'm sure.

We measured and weighed the kids for their 2yr stats and this is how big the boogers are now.

Deegan: 35" Tall
Deegan: 27 1/2 lbs

Kenna: 33 3/4 " Tall
Kenna: 26 1/2 lbs

More pictures coming soon.

PS. Thank you for all the nice Birthday wishes via email and Facebook for the kids. Also Erik is wondering why only three people ever leave comments on this blog. He thinks hardly anyone looks at it. I told him many of you tell me via email that you enjoy keeping up with the fam via the blog.
