Babies' Birthday

After Lucy's birthday on Monday we woke up and celebrated the babies' birthday! Lucy was almost as excited for their birthday as for her own.  After breakfast the girls opened their first presents. They had gotten some presents from the grandmas a couple of weeks ago and hadn't been very interested in the opening process-but not on their birthdays! They were pros and enjoyed ripping at all that paper. They loved these little plush birdies (and Lucy loved that they were from Rio.)

After naps we met Becca and went to Thanksgiving Point. We were waiting for some of her friends to join us at the gardens so we went to the dinosaur museum. We hadn't been before and it was nice to get out of the heat for awhile. Lucy loved it and kept telling me not to be nervous because the dinosaurs weren't real and the sounds just were trying to make it feel authentic. She protected me form the giant shark too.
 
After our tour of the museum and a walk through the children's garden we went to see the tulips. Poor babies-it was their birthday and we pushed them around in the heat all day:) We took them out in the shade and let them explore for a bit though.



 After a long day out we came home and had dinner. They tried cake at their family party a couple weeks ago so on their birthday we had cookies. They liked them a lot more.


 Before bed they got to video chat with Grandma Leininger and had a great time showing her all their tricks.

  1. So cool that the year mark has arrived. Last year at this time we weren't sleeping much at night and I couldn't believe that we'd survive!
