Birthday Week 2012

We have managed to survive and even enjoy another October birthday week!  Pretty crazy how this has turned out, but 3 out of 6 kids have their birthday in the same week!!  Here are a few pictures and stories from two of the celebrations.  Abby had to postpone her's a bit and then it was complicated by Nathanael's hospitalization.  I'll write about both of those in the next post, hopefully this week!

Rachel with her Caramel Birthday cake.  She had a game night for her birthday, inviting several friends over for a team oriented game night.  We all had fun.  Teen girls are loud!
Here is Nathanael (with dinner still on his face) and Daddy blowing out the 2 candles.  Even now, he is standing by the computer yelling excitedly about "my cake" and "happy birthday to you." 

This is what Nathanael's cake looked like after his good friend Thaddeus, who is just 2 months younger, was finished with it.  Della, T's mom, and I were talking in the kitchen and realized that Nathanael was with us but Thaddeus was not.  I went into the dining room to find him stretched across the table with the salt shaker in one hand, a fist full of cake in the other, and frosting all over his face!  I burst out laughing (not really the best reaction for my friend's sake!) and grabbed the camera!  Notice the salt on the bottom of plate!  Little boys are so entertaining!  And these two, Nathanael and Thaddeus, will give us lots of laughs and frustrations, I am sure! 

This is Nathanael with Thaddeus a few months ago.  Just thought a pic of these two cuties was appropriate after such a story.  They really are great buddies even at such a young age!
