Birthday Boys!!

Today is my both of my boy's birthdays. Jacob was born on Owen's 2nd birthday. I wasn't due till the 29th and was scheduled to be induced on the 27th to try and spread out their birthdays as far as possible (with me getting that baby out as soon as possible-that last month always seems unbearable). I remember thinking that the 23rd was the last day to avoid (June is a busy month with our anniversary etc.) and wasn't worried at all that I would actually go in to labor that early. Well around 4:00 in the morning I woke up with contractions and was like oh crap, not today! I kept hoping they would just go away (that has never happened with me, when I start contractions they don't stop until the job is done). I waited about an hour before I woke up Peter and told him and then I got up wrap all of Owen's presents and frosted his birthday cake. I wanted everything to be ready for Owen's birthday so it wouldn't be forgotten. We took the kids to his brother's house around 6:30 am and headed to the hospital and delivered around 11:30 am. It was so crazy. We ended up having Owen's birthday party in the hospital in the afternoon where he got a additional present, his little brother. They have really turned out to be such good buddies, let's just hope it stays that way...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY OWEN!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAKE!!

I wanted the boys to be able to play with their presents today, so we let them open them up last night instead of waiting till Peter got home from work today. They were so excited to get new toys and stayed up late last night playing with them.
