Mommy's YUMMY birthday cake!

We celebrated my birthday over the weekend and enjoyed some of the best chocolate cake I have ever tasted. John did very well picking this one out. This was the only thing I requested for my birthday and it has been wonderful. He put purple and green icing on it and the boys went crazy. I didn't know they even really knew what cake was, but they were so excited about eating some of it and wanted it for breakfast the next day so we have to keep it hidden. Luke loves the color purple and Liam loves green so they fought over who got the purple and green flowers on the cake. I was surprised at how much they liked it, but not surprised at how much they were bouncing off the walls after they had it.
John recently took a trip to Phoenix for work and told the boys before he left that he would bring them a present if they were "good" and helped Mommy pick up toys, helped with Aiden, etc....Well, Luke particularly remembered this promise and each time he did something "good", he reminded me of his presents. They were very excited about these wristbands. They wear them to hit "homers" with the baseball toy we have.
Aiden is getting his first TWO teeth. Liam got teeth at 4-5 months, but Luke and Aiden are following about the same pattern so far. He has been chewing on just about anything he can and is a little cranky. This too shall pass...still waiting to see if he will have curly hair like Luke, but it is looking straight to me.
