Some funny videos

Kai is so funny these days. Ever since he turned two he has decided to be even more funny and now has a fake (somewhat evil) laugh that he likes to do to get more laughs from all of us. I caught a little bit of the laugh, and with Chase's "help" some real laugh too. (Sorry for my repetitive urging for him to do his laugh :) ).

This video is funny for a few reasons: 1. The boys cars racing makes it sound like a rollercoaster is zooming by (I bet the neighbors love it), 2. I bought Kai girl pants by mistake and so him running makes him look even more girly as he shakes his bum, and 3. The winner's prize? A rock. (Ok, I just watched this video after I "published the post"...it isn't that funny, but I think their grandmas might enjoy seeing them in action ).

Two Birthdays

Ok, first off, once again I could not put my pictures in order. I am amazed at what great blogs you each put together, and when I come on here, to give blogger another shot, I end up hating it even more then I remembered and vow not to post again for another several months :). So please forgive the horrible order of everything, I will try to make this posting somewhat understandable to those who actually want to look at it.

Above is the cake that I made for Chase's fourth birthday party that we had yesterday with all of his friends. It was very easy to make, and I am relieved that it turned out alright. Chase had a pirate party and loved playing pirate games with his friends. I think their favorite was shooting these pirate cups down with these major water guns, and I wish that we had taken more pictures rather than only video footage. If I knew how to upload videos from our camcorder I would do that, but sorry, I am not about to try and figure it out :).

It is hard to believe that four years ago we had no children, and that in 3 days we would have this little guy who would forever change/improve our life.

And here he is, our big boy Chase who we are so grateful to have in our family. He loved his presents from his friends, and got his first semi-real guns from the Nash's. He loves them and feels more like daddy now. It is crazy to think that on the 28th he will turn 4. Sometimes he seems so much older than four, and then sometimes he still feels like my little baby. He is growing up so much, and is a great little guy.

Then there is Kai. I am late in posting this, but we celebrated Kai's 2nd birthday last month on the 13th. To think of him so quiet and peaceful in this picture of him as a brand-new newborn, and to see that he is neither of those attributes anymore :). Actually he was rarely quiet and peaceful as a newborn either, but came to this Earth with quite the personality. We love having Kai, and love his spunk, his excitement, and his passion. He is growing up so quickly too, and loves to play with his big brother (which I love!).

Here he is opening up his card from Nammy (grandma), who always sends a dollar in her cards. It is funny, she will also send a present, but they sure do love their dollar :).

I forget how Kai got his scratches on his face right before this picture, but they make a great addition to his cuteness, don't you think? We had our friends and their kids come over to decorate cupcake ice cream cones, so sorry that the cupcakes look incredibly boring!

Days later we still had plenty of the cupcakes left, so Kai was able to enjoy an extended birthday celebration.

We love you Chase and Kai, and happy birthday to both of you!!
