Birthdays! Birthdays!



Nicholas and Karlee had their 4th Birthday party with friends at The Little Gym. It was an absolute blast and even though they aren't officially 4 until the 17th, they now consider themselves 4! I guess if you blow out candles and eat cake, it's official (per Nicholas). We invited 14 little friends to come and play in the gym. At this age, all kids want to do is run around and be crazy! That they did! We took a small break for pizza, then it was back into the gym to open presents. They sat Nicholas and Karlee on the top of this podium they had made out of the mats and had them surrounded by their presents. They took turns opening their gifts. Their reactions were the funniest! This was their favorite part! We finished it off by singing "Happy Birthday" and with Spiderman and butterfly cupcakes. No theme really! It was all about what they love!

I had to laugh at Nicholas. He was "Mr. Social" that night. One of my favorite moments was when his friend Gavin arrived. Nicholas ran over to him and said, "Guess what, Gavin? It's my Birthday!" in the most excited voice EVER! Karlee later asked me if she got to keep all of "those presents" she got to open! Of course!!!! So sweet! I just love them both so much! It is an absolute blessing to be able to experience twins! There really isn't anything like it!
