Yay Birthday Parties!

This weekend was pretty busy for me, i first went to Nikki's awesome bachlorette party in Denver on Saturday night. All i can say? A Blast...i then got home Sunday early afternoon, in time to grab Kendall and the kids and head over to a 1st birthday party the kids were invited to, Madison (My friend from high school's daughter). The kids had so much fun playing and running around the room like crazy, there were at least 8 other small kids between 11 months and 3 years. Two of which were a few months older than Layla and Aidan who they loved to dance with and chase around. Very cute!

Aidan starting the party out with a balloon, the theme was lady bugs so everything was red and black. I am really thankful Kendall came, even though he only had met Tracy(Madison's mom) maybe twice, and the only other person he knew was my other high school friend Haley (baby boy due in May!). Despite him fighting a cold which everybody around us has caught, he was a sport and enjoyed watching our kids play. :D
Everybody kept commenting on how well our kids shared..surprised myself that they were being on their best behavior, i simply replied they are "forced to" at home since there is always 2 of them. Here Layla is handing Madison lady bug bean bags, Aidan is standing nearby thinking he is lucky because there was only 2 other little boys and 6 little girls...the other little girl sitting in front of Aidan is also a Madison, and Aidan is blocking a little girl that he liked playing with Kendra (she is 2 months older them him).
The pinata was a lot of fun for the kids, even though it was so tough that they eventually had to cut a hole in it and dump it out for the kids. Below is a video of Aidan and Layla trying to break the pinata...they were a little hesitant in sharing the baseball bat, but still did. After the pinata was broken(a ladybug) Aidan would carry it around since it was in one piece, as if it was the best prize ever! In this picture all the kids are scattered eating candy, Layla is running off with her candy. They only ended up with a piece of candy each, because after they had put it in their paper bag, Layla proceeded to pull out their candy and put it in all the other children's bags...very sweet, and good for us since that will be less candy we have to give to them! :)
