More birthdays

We got to celebrate two more birthdays in May. Bryson's birthday was first. His siblings all got him some new waders for fishing and Janeen made him an entire turkey dinner for his Sunday birthday meal.The day of his birthday we went out for a special seafood dinner at the Market Street Grill-just the two of us. (The food was delish!) We also got to see the movie Date Night the weekend of his birthday. Thanks to everyone who helped make it such a fun birthday week!Eleyna's birthday came next. We had a fun Dora-themed birthday party for all her little friends. Below is Maya, Aliyah and Eleyna eating their Dora cupcakes. Later that same evening we did a barbeque with our families to celebrate. Eleyna got tons of new toys! Some of the highlights included a little cooking set, a Dora dolly, a highchair to feed her babies in, a Dora trike, a Disney princess book, a three little pigs story set (with pigs, the big bad wolf and all their houses), and some new blocks with a wagon to put them in. This last month, her vocabulary has really exploded. She can count to 10, sing most of "Twinkle Twinkle" and "Jesus wants me for sunbeam", and say a prayer (with help). We love hearing her try to say "Pirate Island" and "Sarah". She also has cute phrases such as "Hold tight me!" and loves to say thank you. She is such a delight right now!
We are so lucky to have her!
