Happy Birthday! :birthday:

 

Wow, thanks everybody!!! I can't believe I have the energy to post tonight, but I was dying to see the pics so here I am.

The party today went GREAT! I was nervous, how they would do, but they couldn't have been better. There's a local park here that is all run by volunteers and they have miniature working steam engines & they've built this amazing track, and we rented it for the afternoon. They gave us unlimited train rides for 2 hours! We also brought the BBQ and had hamburgers, hotdogs & LOTS of potato salad. Then we did cake, a pinata, and gifts at the very end. Johnny & Zoe had a blast.....they loved the cakes, LOVED the train, and were really good. Yay!!


A cap on the year....wow. Too hard! It's been up & down, that's for sure. Last year was tough, when they lost their grandpa, their cousin & their great uncle within 7 months. Having Johnny & Zoe with us, though, has brought smiles that the whole family needed. My husband and I had tried for 3 years to have a baby, and 2 m/c, so we really feel they're our miracles. Johnny's now all over the place & probably will be walking soon....he loves to climb, especially. No fear for that boy! Zoe is our true little princess, in every sense of the word. She loves to be pampered! Although she's still not crawling, we are getting our referral to EI soon and she'll be able to be seen twice a month now instead of once. It's hard for me not to worry, but when I look at how she is now compared to a month ago I can see how she really is improving.


I'm adding more pics to the birthday photo folder, but here's the link to what I have so far:

[post="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v324/artoff02/1st%20Birthday/"]birthday pics[/post] if you need a password to access it, it's keystone

and here's a [post="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v324/artoff02/BABY/?action=view&current=e7ddd42a.jpg"]before[/post] pic of when they were 3 weeks old! (same password if you need it.)

I don't really have an "after" pic, since the ones from the party today are the most recent. We'll be getting 1 year pics done hopefully next weekend.


Thanks everybody for the wonderful support here!!!! See ya in the 1-5's!

 

Naomi your links aren't working.

 

Congrats on their first birthday and hooray for a good party! It sounds like you had a great time, and what a great deal for the free train rides!

well, the train rides weren't really free....we had to rent it. But, it was only $75 for 2 hours of unlimited rides...we thought it was a pretty good deal!

Ok, I'm going to try the links again:
