Life isn't always cancer, transplants and infection around here. Last Saturday, we snuck in a birthday party for the boys. It was a celebration very small in number but really big in fun. Ivey said he only wanted Campbell, Mommy, Daddy, Emme and Guh at his party...good thing, because that's what was planned. He also had some very specific cake and present requests that I had to deliver on. Thankfully, though, he didn't mind sharing his celebration with Campbell.
A dear family friend sent the most fun water toys to the boys for their birthdays and those (along with the boys' sea creature obsession!) gave us a theme. Good thing the party was water-friendly since it rained a good portion of the day. Even that couldn't stop the fun, though. We played water tag, did the slip and slide, and played on the play set rain and all. Per the usual, the boys spent most of the day celebrating in their birthday suits!
What started as a day of birthdays has now turned into a week-long birthday bender. Ivey has referred to it as his "birth week." Not day, week. But hey, when your Daddy has cancer, you get a birthday week, right?
Below are a few pictures from the celebrating....
This weekend, we are in recovery mode from all of the celebrating. Well, at least some of us are....when I was reading Ivey stories last night, he asked what kind of party he was going to have when he turned five. Let the planning begin.
Happy weekend!
Love,
Molly
