Those are all the people that came to help us celebrate Matties 2nd birthday.

He's SO loved!

We had everyone over for Pizza, cake and ice cream.. Mattie was mesmerized by the birthday candle, and stared at it with wide eyes before announcing "Appy Birday" . We took that as our cue to sing him his song. He clapped joyfully when we were through, and Taylor helped him blow out his candle.

Papa tried talking the kids into taste testing the cake before we started.. Megan was the only one going for it though. (well, and Mattie ofcourse). Its awkward when you have to scold your father.Everyone just hung out and ate Pizza while the kids ran amuck.

Mattie and Kaden had fun running around the front yard. They're so cute together.. I think they've only played together like 4 times , we don't get to do it often.

Mattie was so overwhelmed with so many people around that he cried and begged for Taylor to hold him atleast 70% of the time. I was glad when he actually played with Kaden because for the most part he was too nervous to leave Taylor's or my own side.

Grandma and Stephanie were there too, but were hiding out in my living room away from the crowd... I can't blame them, I am not one for the whole fuss either ...

I went downstairs to check on the girls in the play room. I gave Megan a quick hug and noticed that her arms were wet.. I asked her why and she replied that she'd just washed her hands.. Aryanna immediately protested saying "NO!, her was trying to get the fish, her was catching it in the water!". I turned to Megan with a scowl on my face, and she had no choice but to fess up.. She spent the rest of the night grounded for lying about it. I could have handled the whole, have to touch the fish part, but she's got this little problem with the whole truth and nothing but the truth.. THAT we will be working on.......

tonight Ali is having yet ANOTHER sleep over with Brooke..
