We managed to survive four major celebrations in our house last weekend....
On Thursday, Ben and I celebrated our 5th Anniversary - it's so hard to believe that it's been five wonderful years. We had a great dinner at Capital Grill and are already looking forward to a little vacation just the two of us this fall!!!
It's fun to look back at the picture of us on our wedding day and a picture of us now and think of all that has changed in our lives since June 18, 2004!!!!
Will turned 6 months on Friday - At the doctor, he weighed 16 pounds, 15 ounces (40%) and was 27 inches long (90%). He is days away from crawling and is turning into a little boy right before our eyes.

On Saturday, we officially entered the world of "2's" as Paige celebrated her birthday. We had a great day up in Bethany - starting with blueberry pancakes and ending with cake and ice cream. Paige definitely knew it was her birthday this year which made it so much fun. She would not nap - we think she didn't want to miss a thing. When asked how old she is, she can say, "2" (very proudly at that!). Here are a few pictures of her special day....
Paige's gigantic "cupcake" cake
Watching "Tigger and Pooh" with Uncle Peter
Playing with her new doll house - her new favorite thing!
Blowing out her candles
Finally, on Sunday, we celebrated Father's Day - our attempt at a family picture perfectly depicts our life with a brand new 2 year old:) Paige just did not want to partake in the picture, but we thought we'd try anyways - augh!!!

Happy 5 Years! It's a big one and hope you guys get a romantic getaway this fall. Also, Happy Birthday to Paige. Welcome to the two's!!! Makenna did not nap on her 2nd birthday either. It's the first nap she ever skipped. She's skipped many since then, but it happens. What can you do. Will is getting so big so fast. And what a cutie he is. He does look a lot like Ben, whereas, Paige is more of a mix of the two of you. Hope you have a great summer.
CONGRATS to all the celebrations! I think that pic at the end is one the BEST photos I have ever seen! It is so real and also very cute! You should send it to a parenting magazine :)
Love you!!
