Mandy's birthday celebration

Here are some pictures from Mommy's birthday celebration.

Jan's Birthday and Father's Day 2010

As usual, Jan's birthday and Father's Day fell on the same weekend this year. We started celebrations by baking a cake at 6:30 in the morning on Daddy's birthday and then opened Daddy's gifts for him (shirts the kids picked out plus sunglasses from Mommy) in the evening after enjoying some cake. For Father's Day, Roan got Daddy a new basketball hoop as well as tickets to a SF Giant's game - their first baseball game.

Mali's Third Birthday!!

Mali had a very ballerina birthday. She received many special ballerina gifts from the family (including a ballerina music box, a ballerina doll, and a wooden dress-up ballerina doll) and had a ballerina cake at her party! We celebrated at Indian Springs Park in San Mateo with a few of her special friends.

Mali's Second Birthday

Well, it only took 4 months to get these pictures up, but here they are! She had a pretty low-key birthday. We had a small playgroup gathering as well as a little barbecue with some friends to celebrate both Mali's and Dylan's (her best friend from across the street) birthdays which are a week apart.

Roan's Fourth Birthday!!!

Roan turned 4 on May 14! We celebrated all day long, beginning with chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, pizza and a cookie out for lunch, and a burrito out for dinner followed by frozen yogurt (all of his favorite activities). He had a celebration that weekend with a few of his friends in our back yard, complete with a train jump house. His big gift was a bike and he is speeding around the neighborhood way to fast for Mommy's taste already. Here are a few pics from the celebrations.

Amali's First Birthday!!!

Amali's First Birthday - June 9, 2008
Amali turned ONE on June 9!! We had a couple little parties for her. We had some friends over on the weekend for a barbecue and then she had a playgroup birthday party on her actual birthday. She was rather unimpressed by most of the festivities, though she loved her gifts, including her own baby doll.
