Cake Smashing

I apologize for the long video but I just couldn't take anything out of this! It's too cute and way too funny to leave anything out!

Happy Birthday Cameron and Carter!!!!

Wow where has the time gone? What an amazing year we have had at the Richburg house with these boys! They both continue to amaze me everyday and I am very lucky to be their mommy!

Well no birthday would be complete around these parts without a big blowout! We had all kinds of friends and family come over to celebrate on Saturday. Daryl's family even came in from Alabama which was a very nice treat! The boys got lots of very cool stuff! From clothes to games to patio furniture and toys...they made out like bandits!
We also had matching outfits with shirts that said birthday boy on them but you will see in the pics that the outfit was quickly changed after Cam decided to get rid of his lunch just before the party started...all over his shirt:( It never fails with those two!

The cake smashing was by far my favorite moment of the day! They were none to thrilled to be wearing birthday hats as you will see on the video and in the pictures. But once they got a little taste of that cake...oh boy did they go to town. Carter was all about some cake and Cam was more about the icing! It was great!! Thanks to everyone who celebrated with us:)

Happy 1st Birthday boys!! We love you:)

Happy Early Birthday to MEEEE!!!

As many of you know, birthdays are kind of a big deal to people in my family....mostly me!!! And since my children decided to come into the world just 3 DAYS after MY birthday you could kind of say my thunder is pretty much stolen as far as birthdays go from here on out!! BUT... I am totally fine with that...they deserve all the thunder from now on.

So all week long my family has been asking me what I wanted to do for my birthday and I really didn't have anything special in mind since my focus is on the boys birthday next week. After much him-hawing around we finally decided to go to dinner tonight at our good friends new Italian restaurant..BaCCos. It is delicious!! The boys were all about the spaghetti tonight! We made a HUGE mess but it was worth it:)

Our new swing set

For the boys upcoming birthday we decided to build a swing set in the backyard. Now it's more of a frame with 2 swings on it but close enough to a swing set in my book. The boys love to swing everytime we go to the park so I thought it would be nice to have it in my backyard rather than having to go the park everytime! They seemed to enjoy it a lot when we got home tonight as did Daryl and myself.

What us, afraid of a bathtub....Naaaahhhh!!!

I posted a few weeks ago about our issues with the big bathtub transition. Well looks like the boys worked through those issues and can now happily bathe, and bathe together I might add! Tonight was the first time we put the boys in the bath together and man what a difference! They loved it and it saved me a little time as well. WE got a few pics but of course getting them to both look at the camera at the same time is darn near impossible anymore!

I didn't do it mom!!

Look how guilty this kid looks!! Cameron's new trick is emptying out the toy basket in the play area. FUN for me!

Our Easter Bunny Adventure

Well lets just say Santa is way cooler than the Easter bunny for these boys apparently! They cried as soon as we sat them down on the bunny's lap. They worked through it though and we managed to get a pic of them not crying. Well Cam is fighting the cry and Carter is just, well, just there! hahah!! Those little personalities keep growing and shining through with each day!
