Halfsies

This year we celebrated both boy's half birthdays at the same time. I always believed that if you had a birthday in December you should be rewarded with an honorary mini birthday in June as well, since most December-born people I know have repressed feelings surrounding the issue.

Many give me grief about giving my son a cake and a single present in June. I say if I only have two kids, I can do what I want. And I can do what I want.

My other son's birthday is in April. He doesn't necessarily need a half birthday celebration to aid him in healthy emotional development, but hey, how do you celebrate one without the other. And again, I can do what I want.

Enter half birthday fun.


 Boy #1 received the much anticipated Lego Batmobile

Boy #2, a weed whacker of course!

And if you know this boy at all, you will understand completely why he had to 
sleep with it...and continued to do so for five nights.

Here's to healthy emotional development.

Your boys are so beautiful! What a great mom you are! I LOVE that you celebrate the half birthday! Give me names of the naysayers....we celebrate stuff at our house all the time...infact today we are going to celebrating National Chocolate Pudding Day!! So those naysayers can put that in their pipes and smoke it!

What a great idea. Don't tell Olivia (Dec. 11th birthday) that you do it though...
