Double Birthday Celebration

Kaitlynn and Kevin both have big birthdays coming up this week. Kaitlynn will be 2 on the 14th and Kevin turns 16 on the 15th. Normally we like to celebrate their birthdays individually but our month is so busy that we were forced to combine them this time around.

Somehow I don't think either of them minded.


Kevin got to pick his favorite dinner spot, a local hibachi grill restaurant. Yum! I packed a PB&J sandwich for Connor and peanut butter crackers for Kaitlynn because I knew they wouldn't eat the hibachi food. And Kaitlynn wasn't in the best of moods but we managed to make it through dinner (barely, ha!)

After dinner, we came home and everyone swam for a while. We were killing time and waiting for Collin to get off work so we could open presents and enjoy cake together as a family.


Kaitlynn was in major meltdown mode by this point, as evidenced by the video of us singing Happy Birthday:



But all was right with the world again when she opened her first gift: her very own iPod Touch. Yes, I caved and got her a cheap used one because I was tired of her screwing up my iPhone settings. She calls it her "yo" which is short for "hello" which is what she thinks a phone is called. Now she has her very own yo and she couldn't be happier.


Kevin's favorite gift? A couple boxes of PopTarts. OK, I'm kidding. But he really was happy about them because I no longer keep them in our pantry. It was a special birthday treat, ha! Tomorrow I am taking him shopping for a new pair of Oakley sunglasses, so I think that's what he's the most excited about. :-)


Happy Birthday to our very Special K's!

  1. It looks like you guys had a nice birthday celebration for Kevin and Kaitlynn! Kevin was pretty hilarious with his "...wait...wait...wait" comments! I thought Jeff was a trooper being patient with Kaitlynn! It was cute when he asked if you were going to just let her make a mess! :-) Hope Kaitlynn has an even more special day tomorrow, ON her birthday!
