Early Birthday Party

We went to the dentist today and there is a fancy cupcake store in the same parking lot so we bought a few to celebrate Erin's birthday early and Brendan's birthday late.

Aquarium and Roseola

So today we went to the aquarium in Long Beach and then hung out around the house. In the afternoon we went to Toys R Us to get Erin a helmet for her birthday. Also the day the rash from her Roseola appeared.

Matching Hat

Granny knitted a matching hat to Erin's sweater and Erin loved wearing it around the house.

State Park

Erin was not feeling well so was not her usual self and instead of running the mile long path she wanted to be carried for a large amount.

Family

We spent one last day with Uncle Cliff (Erin was sick so no Lucas) and went for a walk in the State Park.

Julie Burkhead

Julie came to visit and we hung out eating goldfish on the deck and enjoying the great weather. Erin rode the neighbor's tricycle while Bridget and Julie worked on their tans.

Meeting Sandy

Erin liked to sit in the "spider house" and pet Sandy. Here she became more brave and actually pet Sandy and sang happy birthday to her as well.

Early birthday cupcakes

In order to celebrate with the cousins we had cupcakes at the park and sang happy birthday to Erin.

Makayla and Jack

Makayla and Jack came to hang out at the park near Uncle Cliff's house. Erin chased them around and loved being twirled on the spinning seat.

Kirstin and Colin

We went to the park off Oxford Way in Benicia to meet up with Kirstin and her son Colin. Erin enjoyed the swings and nearly jumping off the highest point on the climbing structure.

Melissa and Westin and Jane

We visited our old next door neighbors and their two kids, Westin and Jane. Erin liked playing with Westin, but turned aggressive when Jane wanted to play. I guess we need to work on the anger management.

This is at the park across the street from Lucas' house.

More Lucas

A few more pictures with Lucus and some more fun at Uncle Cliffs house.

Visiting Cousin Lucas

We spent our first day in Benicia visiting Cousin Lucas (2 weeks old). Everyone took turns holding him and Erin wanted to get a closer look. Unfortunately she gets a little jealous and took a few quick smacks at him (luckily he did not seem to be bothered).

Hair Bows

Aunt Sonia bought Erin hair clips with bows and Erin wanted to wear all of them at once!
