We had a Birthday party for Rowan on Sat (pretty much an excuse to have a pool party)
We had a lot of fun and thanks to everyone who came and everyone that helped us!!

This is some kids pushing my friends kid around and Rowan "helping"

Rowan opening presents. I put tape on his face!

The kids with squirt guns in the pool

Rowan's B-day cake. Carrot cake made and decorated by me (I need more practice)

This has a funny story. My friends kid said that there was something yellow in there. I said it was just the chlorine tablet (figuring the complex had a yellow) and he said "no, it is yellow with black writing". Again, my and my friend dismissed it. He said it looked like a frisbee, and we said why do you say that? as he opened the filter and pulled out.....a frisbee!!!

Guiremo BBQing (I have no clue how to spell his name...Sorry!)

The adults!

Monica giving Rowan cake!
When we got home we put Rowan in his highchair and let him at some cake...he had fun


It was fantastic!
We are going to be flying to my parents on his birthday! Hurray for Birthday surprises!!

Things have been pretty quiet around here.  We are very excited that Cory got a B+ in his class this semester (for those who don't know the class got really hard half way through and Cory's study buddy had to drop out and Cory wasn't sure if he should drop it or stick with...we are glad he stuck with it!)   

Rowan is growing like a weed and can now stand up without having to pull himself up on something.  He should be done with his helmet on the 22nd and Than a week later, on his birthday, we are heading to Oregon to visit my folks.  

Rowan will occationally suck on his top lip but he has never done it consistently until tonight, so here are some pics

And he had his first graham cracker and loved it!!!  I wanted to see how he would do with a full square and he took a small bite and found out he could bite with his 2 bottom teeth and gave me this huge smile!!
