Birthdays and Beans


On Saturday morning, Drew and I attended a birthday party for my girlfriend's little girl. She turned 3 years old and is such a doll! Although it was a bit frigid and rained a little, Drew still had a blast with the other kids and, of course, devoured a piece of cake. (I might or might not have also done that)


Despite that huge playground in the back of this picture, the volleyball sand and net was entertainment enough for a good 30 minutes at one point. Personally, I am not the biggest fan of playgrounds and was A-ok with my guy hanging around the other areas. His clumsiness combined with slippery steps and ambitious climbing goals generally make for at least a few falls each time we go to a playground. I think I have about 39 mini heart attacks each time we go to one.


On another note, my brother will begin residency in Detroit in a couple of months meaning he'll be only TWO hours away from us!! I'm beyond excited to have him so close and so is his little shadow. Drew loves his Uncle Bean something fierce and I know he'll enjoy seeing him so often.


The boys enjoyed a bit of time together this weekend while he was up here for a quick visit.


(Sorry for posting pics with sweet bed hair Bean!)

  5. Yay for birthday cake! I totally feel you about playgrounds -- they exhaust me because there's so much to manage! So exciting your brother will be so close -- I don't think I realized you were so close to the MI border - no wonder your weather is so similar to ours! I'm only about an hour from Detroit!

  12. Does Uncle Bean have a significant other? He sounds like the perfect match for my menagerie's beloved Aunt Cuckoo. :)
