party #1 for 2

We had a wee party for our wee one year olds.


It was real casual...just the way I like my parties!


There was lotsa love to go around.


Daddy dressed up in his Packer best.


I made lotsa Oreo cupcakes (this is only half of them)....


There are half Oreo cookies on the bottom of each cupcake. YUM!!!!
(Remember I made Oreo cookies the day I went into the hospital to birth them boys...so that's why I made these kinda cupcakes.)


The boys devoured them (who wouldn't?).





A favorite funny face.


The "three-finger-suck"...his own little sign language to let me know when he is hungry or tired. He just finished dinner and a cupcake, so he is very tired.



My proud one year old boy.


Just a couple pics of me 'n my boys so you can see for yourself I survived my first year with twins...and I'm still smiling. This was a "grab-my-moment" photo at the end of a very long day, so we all look a bit tired...but that's not very unusual for the three of us......

We had ourselves one heckuva good first year together. I felt lucky every single day of it. The past year was so much easier than I imagined it would be...but that's not saying it wasn't as difficult as you know it was. I have a feeling the next two years are going to be much more difficult. They still are not walking...or even crawling, so they are still basically immobile. They are pretty mellow little dudes. I often wonder if this past year was the "calm before the storm"....

I'll keep you posted on that.
