Andrew's Official Birthday Party!

Playing with his dozer from Kent & Dee

Mom & her boys!  We were getting the party started with some snacks.

Seriously cute!  Tiptyn was such a good snuggler with everyone!

Of course Gabe wasn't forgotten... he was THRILLED with his new transformer!  In fact it is on his pillow right next to his head right now while he sleeps.

Singing happy birthday.  We had to do it twice because he wanted to blow out the candle again... He wouldn't blow out the candle unless we were singing!

Family pic... missing Aaron and Jim.

One last gift before bed.... a pedal loader tractor!  He loved it and brought it to bed with him.  It's parked right by his bed.

"pike my hair" and push-ups

Andrew likes to have his hair "piked" aka spiked.  He asked me to spike his hair while he was in the bathtub dumping water on his head.  I told him to wait until he got out of the tub.  So of course we had to "pike" his hair before he was dressed.

CHEESE!

Gabe came in the bathroom and got a spike too.  Then we proceeded to take pics in the mirror.  The silly picture was actually the best one we took!

Gabe has been focused on "getting strong" lately.  I told him to do pull-ups on the monkey bars, which he does but always calls them push-ups.  So I figured I better show him what an actual push-up looks like.  ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNND since I can't do a "real" push-up I enlisted Aaron's help.  So here is a pic of all my boys getting in a workout.

First Wrestling Camp!

Arriving at the high school for wrestling.

He got this cool t-shirt that says "Humboldt Wrestling Club, Dominating the Competition".

He really liked wrestling and learned a lot for the first day (3 hours).  He goes back for the last day tomorrow.  For some reason I didn't take any pictures while he was wrestling (doh!) but trust me it was VERY cute to see him down on his knees on the mat trying some moves on his partner!

Thanks Grandma Flatau!

The boys each got a package in the mail today with a coloring book and an art project.

They wanted to start painting RIGHT AWAY!

Gabe wanted his to look just like the sample on the package.

Andrew's blue paint was dried up so he only had red and yellow... which just became red.

Finished!
