Productivity and firsts

Well, we've had a very productive last couple of weeks. We got the drywall up in the garage and over the long weekend we got most of the seam/screw patching and painting done in there. We should be able to finish it on Saturday. How were we possibly capable of getting all this done you may ask?

Well, its because my boys spent 3 nights away from home for the first time. 2 nights at my folks house and 1 night at Jason's folks. All had a wonderful time. Mom and Dad took the boys to the zoo and they had fun seeing the animals and feeding the goats. Apparently the goat tried to walk away from Ryker and he followed going "here, here!" Jason's folks took Xander to see his first movie in a theatre (Shrek 3). I guess he just sat there in awe looking at the great BIG screen.

When we picked them up on Monday everyone was tired and happy.

We also got to take time for fun this weekend and went for dinner and a movie. We saw Pirates 3 which was great. So many handsome men, so little time. =)

Happy end of May!

My Baby is 2

And he seemed to enjoy himself immensely yesterday at the big party.

Here he is with his Elmo cake (or as Ryker says "Melmo").

He got to eat one of his eyes. Big brother had to have the orange nose. (Everything has to be orange with Xander of late).

After cake, we opened lots of cool presents that the boys played with a lot.

Did you know that birthday parties are a LOT of hard work? Well apparently they are because here's what happened at about 6:00.
