two turn two!!

this past weekend we celebrated crew and kade turning two!! we decided to make it the ultimate toddler day and filled the schedule with fun and festivities! we went to a couple of the pools at our new housing community; brody loved it, the twins were definitely "suspicious" until they found some parts they liked. for instance crew walked away from me to go past three pools, and up a flight of stairs to wait in line for another trip down the water slide, and yes, i was right behind him. the pools were great, we're so excited to cool off here this summer. here's some pics of the day:

after dinner we celebrated with cookies, the twins don't really like cake, i wonder where they get that from (guilty cough.) they don't say many words, but one word they picked up very quickly was cookie!

crew:

funny story: we were getting ready to clean up to have dessert and none of the boys were helping so we said "let's clean up to have cookies." crew chucked his toys down and made a beeline to start cleaning while chanting "cookies, cookies." it was hilarious. we love our boys are were so excited to celebrate today!
