Jaris Birthday Part 2 and our Oliver trip

Kenzie showing off for everyone! She looked like she had a black eye, and when she realized that is she hammed it up people would pay more attention to her than her brother!

Jaris after mommy took his hand and smashed the cake! He was not to happy about it. He was so gentle with the cake and so careful. I have a feeling that my son is going to grow up to be a gentle giant!

Kenzie getting some snuggles with Uncle Ray!

Jaris carefully taking icing off of his teddy bear cake. My mom made two cakes, and so in the end Jaris got to have one all to himself! Once he was done the cousins and friends dug in with forks!

Yummy, measuring cups! Eating grandma's measuring cup and showing off a bit for the camera!

Nothing but food matters to me!

Life seems to be going full speed ahead with 2 babes. Last weekend we took a day trip to Oliver to see Jeral's parents. It took the Kids a bit to warm up however once the got all warmed up they had a grand time with G & G Krahn. Our kids are just so full life and it was so fun watching them with their grandparents.

Jaris birthday part 2 happened today! It was so much fun having so many friends and family here! When Jaris woke up from his nap he was not sure what to make of the extra people, and it was so cute watching him size people up. We had pizza, chicken wings, veggies, and fruit! We ordered in the pizza. It was less stressful than trying to cook for everyone, and in true Mennonite style I had way too much food! However I would rather have way to much than not enough. Jaris still is not so sure about opening gifts and so forth, however Kenzie gets it and was such a little helper for her younger brother. It was just so much fun to be surrounded by our family and close friends. They were the ones who walked the journey of fertility issues with us. They are the ones who prayed with us and for us, and now today we got to celebrate with him the answers to our fertility prayers and the answer to our adoption prayers a year after our babes were born. I am one very blessed mommy! And with that this mommy is going to get some sleep, because I am also a tired mommy!
