Happy birthday

Boy A at 6 months

Boy B at six months

Together at 15 months. (Boy A is in yellow, Boy B in green)


And here they are being a little silly this fall before starting school (Boy A is in front, Boy B in back):


Oh how time flies.

We have a big day planned. When dad comes home from working a half day, we are going to their favorite restaurant, "Big Boy" then to the bowling alley. They have never been. Then, this evening my mom and sister are coming over for their favorite meal: macaroni and cheese surprise (the surprise is ground beef). Then chocolate cake. Yum.

Six years ago today, after a long and strict bed-rest pregnancy, we were heading to town for an anniversary dinner before my 1 p.m. appointment for a stress test on the babies. We knew this would be the day. Sure enough, my blood pressure forced a C-section delivery of two perfect boys. Even though they were four weeks early they were both over 5 lbs. It had been a long road, but one worth taking every curve and bump.

Happy birthday my boys.
