Birthday Month

Birthdays consume the month of September around our home and I couldn't be happier to share my birthday month with two sweet kids.  Last year we celebrated big with 2 big parties and this year we scored things back with family time together at home and at the beach.  It's hard to focus a day on a two year old, including a menu but we managed to melt his heart with pancakes for dinner. 
Carson adores trains and is a little over the top with them.  So he got a few things that were train centered, including a cake.  




Finally, it was Siena's birthday which is torture after having to wait through Carson's, Milo's and mine, but the day did finally arrive as we promised.  



Siena has more friends than I could ever dream of having but just a few joined us for play time at her favorite restaurant, Chick-Fil-A and joined us for a few Tinkerbell cupcakes. 


 

Most of Siena's gifts were Frozen related and one of those gifts was a trip to see "Frozen On Ice" with a few of her friends.  She enjoyed the experience, the ice (she wants to try ice skating now), the snow that fell several times during the performance as well as all the goodies that came with the day.  But when asked what her favorite part was, just like every other girl her age, the response was, "ELYSA!"
