Happy Birthday, Round #1



We celebrated Patrick and Gavin's birthdays tonight (two and four, respectively), with a fun kid-themed birthday dinner at Nana and Papaw's and a scary snake cupcake cake, courtesy of Aunt Titi (Katie.) Patrick made out like a bandit with bugs, bugs, and more bugs. There were also a couple of dinosaurs thrown in to the mix, as well as a drawing board. He went to bed this evening with a pair of bug glasses and a couple of tiny plastic bugs, which are likely to become pets that we will be asked to check on quite frequently. Here are a few pictures:

Patrick was so exhausted when we got home that putting on his jammies was an ordeal. Tucked into bed, we started to say goodnight prayers. We thanked God for Indy, Mommy, Daddy, and Patrick and said "Goodnight, God. Amen." Patrick gave me a goodnight kiss, and then started to pray again. Apparently, he forgot to be thankful for a few things. He said, "God, thank you cake. Thank you candy. Thank you open presents. Amen, God."
