Two...and a HALF!

I am getting caught up! :)  About two weeks ago, on Friday, October 22nd we celebrated the boys' half birthday.  Since they already have to share a birthday I thought we would go out of our way to celebrate this halfway milestone to make them feel a little more special.  Right now they just think it is fun, as they get older I think they may appreciate it in a different way.

We spent the morning making a pumpkin pound cake together.  I don't let them help me in the kitchen too much so this was a real treat for all three of us.  They did pretty well, even with all the temptations!  It was really hard for them to wait to try the cake until daddy got home, but they did!  We ate one of their favorites for dinner, Sloppy Joes in a Biscuit Bowl and after dinner they each got a half a cake and we sang "Happy Half Birthday".  It was a great ending to a great day!  Ashton and Ayden both now tell people that they are "two half"! :)
