First there was this....

A bunch of old friends, together for breakfast and play time. It was so crazy to see where life has taken us all. It was fun to catch up, but even more fun to see our kiddos interact. Of course, little man Liam slept the party away, but we were happy to take turns holding him. Lucas was wide eyed in terror when he saw the crowd, but quickly warmed up. He shared his toys much better than Ethan, who got a bit of a selfish streak. 9 month old Jillian followed him around everywhere and just wanted whatever he had. Oh goodness, 4 months from now, when Lucas is in that stage, is going to be a whole new thing, isn't it! Jesse and Lucas are really close in age. He just took it all in, all smiles and giggles and rolled his way around the living room. All such cute kids (if I do say so myself), but then again, look at us! Ha! To think of the times we spent growing up together! I never pictured this- where we're all guzzling coffee in our various sleep-deprived states! It was a lot a lot a lot of fun!

Then we had this....

We picked up my parents from the airport and spent the afternoon/evening having lots of fun! Ethan started by showing off all his valentines- which Lucas wanted oh so bad. He even came so so close to rolling over just to get them. But alas, no rolls yet (besides the ones on his thighs).

As the night went on, the oldest got sillier and sillier, and ended like this...

Lucas just looked on, and read his valentine card from Nana....

All in all, a great day- but you can see that we're tired. Let's all hope for a long, long night of sleep!
