Grace is 18 Months

Grace decided to have a photo shoot too since she turned 18 months the same week Matthew turned 3.

Showing off her clapping skills

Looking Angelic

Ari jumped in - Grace was not happy to share the spotlight

Holy Ponytail!

Matthew is 3

These pics are from Matthew's 3 year photo shoot. He was very cooperative. I think he was trying to make up for his 2 year photo shoot.

Trying to hold up 3 fingers

Posing nicely

Looking a little too innocent. I'm not buying it

Being extra cute

Silly Face

Happy Birthday Matthew!

We celebrated Matthew's 3rd birthday for 2 days. On Sunday we went to Bouncytown......

This is Grace being brave and touching a bounce house. She wanted nothing to do with them at first.

But look how daring she got later on!

It was hard to get pictures of the boys - they didn't do a good job standing still for a picture.

This captures his excitement pretty well

Monday we had Pizza and cake for his real birthday

This is after he ate his cake and then finished off Andrew's as well

Opening presents - a cowboy with a sword. Totally normal.

Ball Pit

The idea is to fill the bucket as full as you can and then lay underneath so all the balls can fall on them. However, they did not have enough patience to fill it very full.

Cleveland Christmas

The pictures aren't really in order but this was our Christmas week!

Our last round of presents - Santa came while we were gone :)
