So, Brian NEVER works weekends, except of course the weekend we are going to a birthday party. I had to get the monkeys ready by myself, drive them up to the party and try to keep them under control without his help. Needless to say I was pooped before I even got there! Right when we walked in, Nate and Lilly decided they would have simultaneous meltdowns so I couldn't even really say hi before I had to run to a back bedroom and give both of them bottles! After that, we went upstairs to the play room where there were a few other sweet kiddos to look at and play with. They were loving Logan's toys! A BIG HUGE THANK YOU to Lindsay, Lucas, and all of their friends and family who helped me. I really hope we didn't take too much spotlight from the birthday boy!
Logan was so cute in his little personalized lion shirt with his name on the back. And I didn't get a taste, but the birthday cakes looked amazing, so I'm sure they were yummy! Logan even had his own with a big lion on it to dig in to! He was so sweet opening presents and seemed to really enjoy all of the people being there and giving him attention. I wish my babies were so friendly to everybody!! I had to take off a little early while Logan was eating his cake because the babies were getting very sleepy, but I got to give the birthday boy a little kiss before I left.
What a whirlwind! Lindsay ran out to give me the party favors (cute little puzzles) and once I got in my car, I realized I hadn't had time to have a conversation with one person! I was bummed about not being able to smooch all over the birthday boy, and talk to Lindsay more, but this is the life with two babies! Where is my personal nanny when I need her?!?
I managed to take a few pictures, but they're not that great because I had at least one baby in hand at all times! To see the good pictures, go here. There aren't any pictures of my kids there, because people were probably afraid if they got too close or made any sudden movements, that Nate and Lilly would re-meltdown!! I must say, I don't blame them. I didn't take any pictures of my kids at the party either. HAHAHAHA.
Getting ready to go..
Unfortunately, the hat didn't make it to the party.
Logan had as much fun with the tissue as he did with the actual presents!!
About to dig in!
You throw a good party, Linds! Great job!

Thanks for the sweet post! YOU did a great job getting those babies ready and making the long haul to our house, all by yourself! We loved having you guys there and we can't wait until Nate & Lilly's big day. And we probably won't get to talk much there either.... Chaos seems to be the name of the game with first birthday parties. We'll have to schedule a "mom's day out" to actually be able to have a conversation! Ha!
