Birthday Girl

My birthday started great with birthday wishes from all my boys.  Scott surpirsed me with a birthday card in my car and an XM radio subscription.  Yay!  When I got to school with Karsten and was unpacking his breakfast, he told his teacher that it was my birthday...and how old I am...and how old Scott is.  No secrets are kept from this guy!

I had a nice lunch with my parents and Scott cooked  a yummy dinner of crabcakes and honey lime green beans.  And they got me a cookie cake for dessert - delish.

While Scott finished dinner, I tried to take advantage of my birthday and see if I could convince the boys to smile for me.


Then, I figured out if I bounced their bouncy balls in crazy directions they would laugh.


I have NO idea what Liam is doing - why he decided to bite his toe is beyond me!


Silly Liam, what are you doing?


All cheese!




Getting closer - they're booth looking at the camera!




Success, I'll take it!  Karsten isn't looking right at the camera, but it's the closest pic of I've had to both of them smiling in the same picture for quite some time.  The best birthday present!  :)


The boys even sang happy birthday (happy benben from Liam) and helped me blow out my candles.  What a great birthday!
