Happy Birthday Dear Natey!

Yesterday Nate turned the big 2-6. Despite a pretty crummy day at work, Addison and I were able to cheer him up a little with a fabulous birthday party. We made him chicken rollups and pasta-roni for dinner, gave him millions of presents, and chowed down on cake together. I think Add and I had more fun practicing the birthday song, baking the cake, and wrapping the presents than we actually had at the party. But it was a good time - it's all about the anticipation, after all.
And let the record reflect that I am so glad to have Nate. He's such a good hubby and person and I am insanely lucky that he's mine. He's so good-natured and fun to be around, even though he has a crazy life right now with work and grad school. And he tries so hard to do what's right. What can I say, I love my Natey. And Add does too.

    Hooray for my birthday! I especially like Addison's bored gesture while I blow out the candles.

    Michelle went all out on my b-day. The cake was delish, the birthday supper superb, and the gifts overly generous. We had to buy me a bike to get back and forth from the U and that was supposed to be all I got, but it weren't. :)

    Michelle!! Your baby looks just like you!! Wow, he is growing so much and is completely precious. Happy Birthday Nate. I can't remember if we've met or not. If we have it's been a while.

Nate the daredevil

We had one more adventure last Saturday that Nate was too embarrassed to write about. Before our hiking excursion we went to Liberty Park to feed the ducks. Addison had a great time in his stroller soaking up some rays and watching the lake and the people and the birds. We tried hard to avoid the seagulls, which are gross if you've never had much contact with them, and to get to the two ducks that were around, but competition for that bread was pretty fierce, so Nate decided to make the geese work for it (since they're the only ones that would). The documented evidence makes me wonder who was working harder, though, and who was more scared. Must be those ferocious beaks or the powerful weapons they like to call webbed feet. Notice Addison's feet in the video where you can see them.

Golden Parenting Moments

Several weeks ago, Nate woke up feeling gung-ho on a Saturday morning and decided we were going on a family sledding trip. I was a grump, but went along with it anyway. By the time we found a decent place and got a good trail worn down the kids got snow in their drawers and it was time to go. We had a great time, obviously. Poor Nate! .
