Amazing Surprise Birthday!

It was so cool to be completely surprised for my 40th. I had absolutely no idea Chris was throwing me a surprise party, and Daniel, Denise, Scott and Ivy all flew in from California for the surprise too. What a lucky girl I am!

We didn't get very many good shots of the party, but here are a couple.

One of our neighbors thought it was Clare's birthday, so they brought a gift call Puppy Pals Bingo!

It was so great being able to hang out with my family while they were here!

We've been sick so often the past couple months (mostly Chris and I), but we did manage to have some fun in between those times...

Clare was went to a birthday party at a place called Pump It Up. She's going to another one there in a couple of weeks.

Clare is really into building forts lately!

Drew has at least three whole teeth and two halves as of today. He can crawl so fast, and he pulls himself to standing, but he's not cruising along the furniture yet. I think we can officially say his first word is Dada. We think he may say Mama on purpose, but we are not positive. He knows the sign for milk and he waves. He's the cutest thing! Clare is so cute and funny with the things she says too. Of course, I can't think of anything right now, but believe me, she's hilarious!

These were taken today when we went to a park and had a picnic. This one looks kind of funny with Chris' legs and feet showing behind Clare.
