Going Bonkers

We celebrated Caelleb & Tia's Birthdays on Saturday at Going Bonkers. The kids had a BLAST! Caelleb was so excited to have his friends there to play with. It was all the parents could do to keep the kids corralled in the "yellow" room long enough for cake/ice cream & presents! They just wanted to PLAY! Who could blame them?

Tia didn't feel like having her picture taken at this particular moment but otherwise here is the gang. . .

Caelleb turned the big 5! For him, life is all about POWER RANGERS so he was very excited about his cake. Side note: on the way to church on Sunday we were driving right by where his daycare is (that he calls "work") and he randomly says, "I don't have to go to work no more." I say, "well, not today but tomorrow you have work." He says, "nah uh, i'm this many now (holds up five fingers), I no have to go to work no more." Apparently he thought turning five meant no more daycare. He was not so happy when we broke the news to him that he has MANY more years of work/school ahead of him! :)

The birthday boy & his buddy from "work."

We celebrated Tia's 2nd birthday! It was a toss up between Elmo & Dora as she loves both, but when I asked her which kind of cake she wanted I got an emphatic, "ELMO." She can't say "Dora" as well so Elmo may have had an unfair advantage, but I loved the sesame street cake so we went with it! :)

I know she was thinking, "you want me to do what exactly to these candles & why is this such a big deal?" :)

She got the hang of it pretty quick and those two candles didn't stand a chance!
