Happy Birthday Cassidy and Statton!

Well the twins officially turned 2 years old on the 17th. I can't believe they are that old but yet they still seem so little to me. Blair was able to fly home for the weekend of valentines so we celebrated the kids birthday sunday night with some family and had cake and ice cream. Blair and I had gone to twin on saturday and picked up some inexpensive trikes for the kids to push around outside. They woke up from naps that afternoon and had found them hiding downstairs so they were trying to ride them around in the basement which wasn't working so well. So we bundled them up and took the kids outside to try out their trikes. They had so much fun. Statton is a little more coordinated pushing his around more than Cassidy was. It was still fun to watch them try so hard.


















So here are the kids opening their gifts and trying on all the fun things they got.








Heres Statton trying on the dress-up shoes that Cassidy got. He's just not as coordinated walking in high heels as his sister.



















We got some fun sing along cd's from Grandpa and Grandma Heward. We've had a fun time listening to them and dancing to the music.










Cassidy and Statton had a lot of help opening their gifts from their cousins. They were a big help opening gifts for the kids and it was cute to watch them together. Here is Elllie and Sophie helping Cassidy.






Statton was getting help with his gifts from his cousin Kensie.








We had a Mickey Mouse Clubhouse them for the twins birthday. It's the one show they both love to watch that I don't find completely annoying.


They both thought it was fun to have everyone singing happy birthday to them .Statton even clapped for us when we were all done singing.






Imagine that they love their cake.




It's been such an adventure raising two kids the same age. They are such cute kids and have been so much fun. I thought I should list some of the cute things that they do and like.
