Weekend Update: Twice as Nice!

Jay and I spent this past weekend in Kansas City in order to celebrate our nephew's first birthday. Jay's parents came over from Colorado, and his cousin and his fiancee live in the area, so it was great to see everyone and celebrate together.


The last time we saw Xander and Liam was on our wedding day. It's amazing how much changes in just 5 months! They are now like little men - smiling and giggling like crazy and almost walking. Their improved mobility and attention spans allowed us to read books together, play with toys and just goof off (this picture below is proof of the goofing off part!).

Liam and Jay bonded right away. Liam is a climber, very smiley and very loving! Todd and May think that between the two boys, Liam is most like Jay. Uh oh! We better watch out!
Here I am with Xander. Xander is just as smiley and loving as Liam though he's more of a climb under than over type. He is probably the one that is closest to walking though I do think that they are both going to be there very soon!
Of course the boys had to devour a cake to celebrate their first birthday! They weren't quite sure what the big deal was and were more interested in playing with the cake than eating it. Regardless, it was pretty cute watching them make a mess!
We love this photo of proud mom May and the boys having a good laugh together!

Besides the great time with family, we got to enjoy a dusting of snow on Friday night! We haven't seen it yet this year, so it was a nice treat.
Just another 6 weeks or so until we see the family again - this time it will be in Colorado!
