New activity: pushing Reed around the driveway in the Little Tykes Car. Great way to pass the 20 minutes while dinner is being made.
Eben flew into town for Labor Day Weekend and Reed's first birthday. We fired up the backyard built in bar-be-que for the first time - success!
On Sunday we drove up to Floyd and Kathie's new condo in the Fairhaven neighborhood of Bellingham. It is a darling condo in an amazing, downtown location with an impressive roof top deck with a view of Bellingham Bay. Charlotte and Nana!
Nana found this yellow dress - the same one I wore when I was four to be the flower girl at Kirstie and Peter's wedding. I must say, Charlotte embodied the joyous spirit of this dress to a "t." I loved seeing her dancing around in it.
Edison got to reconnect with Great Uncle Floyd!
Eben and Pete on deck. "HI" guys!
Singing "Happy Birthday" to Reed. He's loving the attention!
The Phillips tradition - lemon bear cake with toasted coconut cream cheese frosting.
Mmmmm- cake!
Hanging with cousing Evie.
By the time we were ready for presents, Reed was ready for a nap, poor guy. But he cuddled with me and Charlotte and Edison helped him open his presents.
First day of school 2014: kindergarten, preschool, and the toddler room. Glowing reports today! Kids are super tired, though.
