So this is REALLY late (their birthday was on the 17th) but things have been nuts. The party was a HUGE success! We held it at a nature center-there's a nature trail, a park, covered picnic area, and a bunny petting session for all the little ones. We had about 11 early two-year-olds and 1 four-year-old and there were NO MELTDOWNS! It was a dream. I didn't get many pictures (only ones of them eating pizza...wth???) but I doubt that I will forget this one. I do have video of the bunny petting part. So the first year was a breeze for me but man, this second year has been a doozey! I can't thank you ladies enough for all the support. Here's a before and after of the boys from their first birthday to now. View attachment 5741 View attachment 5742
:birthday: :bday: Congrats on making it through the second year! They are such big boys! and cute too!
OK, I swear I was just thinking about you guys--I knew that you had June b-days too but couldn't remember the exact date. I've said it before...but I've simply no idea where the last two years went. Seems we were all just posting stuff about bottles/nursing, no sleep, spit-up, infant stuff, etc. :drown: I just love your photography--Max & Ava will be two this coming Monday (6/29). If you lived closer I'd hire you to come take pictures! So glad their party was a success...we're having ours Sunday. hugs to all, Darci
I remember when you posted the pic of hubby sleeping with one or both of them on his chest after they were born!! :wub: So cute!!! Can't believe they are 2!!! :bday: Braxton and Caleb :birthday:
Larami, welcome to the 2-4! Your boys are adorable as always... and wow... your photographs are just fantastic! It is so neat to see the before and after of B & C; they look so grown up.
Happy, happy birthday Braxton & Caleb! Welcome to 2-4! I was thinking about you guys, and didn't get my act together to post on their actual birthday. Larami, did you find this birthday bittersweet? I remember the whole group of us having a crisis at their first birthdays, LOL! But now, I find myself just glad that they're growing and becoming more independent... Love the pictures, as always. Gorgeous, gorgeous boys.
[SIZE=14pt] :birthday: Happy Birthday Braxton and Caleb!!!! :birthday: [/SIZE] Awesome party, by the way. For the next week all I heard B&J saying was "I go Braxton and Caleb's house again!! (they think you guys live there) They have bugs! They have snakes! They have turtles! They have CUPCAKES!" It really was a cool place, we're going to have to visit again sometime.
Thanks for the birthday wishes! QUOTE(DarciH @ Jun 25 2009, 07:26 PM) [snapback]1368658[/snapback] I just love your photography--Max & Ava will be two this coming Monday (6/29).

DH and I were talking about how we'd give anything for them to just fall asleep on us for 30 minutes!!! They want no parts of lying down anymore .
