Nick's 26th Birthday!
This past week was Nick's birthday! Lucky for him, it turned into a week-long celebration :)
(Nick was nice enough to let Olivia help him open his presents-- after all, her birthday is coming up later this month and she needs to get some unwrapping practice in before then. Surprisingly, she was more interested in the paper than what was wrapped in it...)
Then on Friday Nick got to finish assembling one of his favorite birthday gifts: a movie theater Lego set. Nick's had his eye on this bad boy for a while now and he was pretty excited to get it. It's pretty awesome, so it may have to stay out on display in our apartment for a couple months. All in all, it was a delightful birthday week!
On Monday Olivia and I decorated the house for Nick and finished wrapping all of his presents.
On Tuesday night we pretended it was Nick's real birthday! He got some awesome stuff! After opening presents we (aka mostly just Becky) sang "Happy Birthday" to him and we enjoyed some delicious apple pie.
Wednesday was Nick's official birthday, but unfortunately he had to spend the whole day at school. A friend from his program took him out to dinner though, so that was a fun treat for him.
On Thursday we spent the day at Disneyland, where Nick got to wear a birthday button and lots of people told him Happy Birthday!
Ok I know Olivia looks very unhappy here, but she really did have a good time celebrating with her dad! |
Much better! Here's Olivia happy as a clam! |

Tricks and Treats
We had a lovely Halloween last week! We spent the day at Disneyland and were thrilled with how empty it was-- guess no one wanted to celebrate with Mickey Mouse! The downside was we spent Halloween night in the car...driving back home in horrible LA traffic. Oh well, that's life.
Silly Miss Olivia continues to make us smile with the cute little tricks that she learns. One morning she just started eating her Puffs like this...huh.
She is such a sweet treat, and in this month of gratitude (and birthdays), we feel so grateful to have her!
It was a little cold this morning! Perfect weather for a little jacket-sharing cuddle. |
Just look at her cheesy grin... |
Strongest baby in the world! |
