White Sox Game

Last Saturday we took Taylor to the White Sox game!  She had fun and keeps asking when we are going again!  She even watched the post game fireworks.....which is big for her since she typically does not like fireworks.

(Dora went too.....that's the fuzzy brown head in the pictures!)

Ben's Actual Birthday

Ben woke up on his actual birthday and found a new "scooter" from Mommy, Daddy, and Taylor!

 We then had the neighbor kids over for lunch and playing outside!  The boys loved playing in the sand table.

 Ben was happy to get another cupcake!

 So good!

 Emma liked hers too!

 and Joey!

 Trying out the slip-n-slide...not so sure!

 After a nap, Ben got a new slide from Grandma and Grandpa Parker!

 And we finished off the day going out to Casa's for dinner so Ben could have his favorite mac-n-cheese!

Ben's Birthday Party

 We had a baseball birthday party for Ben the Saturday before his birthday!  Oma made him this shirt for the party!!!

 A new train table!!!

 We had nice weather, so we were able to play outside a lot!

Happy 1st Birthday, Ben!!!

We had a great "birthday weekend" with Ben!!!  I can't believe he is one already!  He went to the doctor today and he is 23 lbs. 1 oz. (50th percentile) and 31 1/4 in. (93rd percentile). 

We weren't surprised that he thoroughly enjoyed his cake!!!

More birthday pictures to come!!!
