Birthday WEEK!!!

Have I mentioned how much we like birthdays in this house.

Cause we do.

We like them alot.



Me and Thiago both like to squeeze every last drop out of our big days, we drag it out as long as possible. This year I decided to help my honey out, and drag it right on out with him. I decided to do a little, tiny gift a day, the whole week of his birthday. I would love to tell you what an incredible wife I am, and that every day I gave the most thoughtful and time consuming gift. However, I only made it Mon-Thurs. By Friday and Saturday I pooped out, and kinda skipped those days. Luckily, I have a very sweet husband, who just laughed at me and said it didn't matter cause he appreciated the other days. This was his gift on Monday...his favorite treats and a coke.


Tuesday was baking day. Thiago and the rest of the Cano's think I make the absolute best chocolate chip cookies. I really don't think they are anything special, but they all go on and on about them. So we whipped some up.


Lincoln was our taste-tester....looks like he approved.




Wednesday was his actual birthday. We got together with family that night for dinner and cake and icecream. Of all the places to pick, Thiago picked Tony's Pizza. What a funny guy, we really do love that place however I probably would have chose something else for my birthday.





I am always so appreciative of all the love and support our families give us. They made his day very special, and we are grateful you all were there.


Yep, I made his cake. I know shocking right, I baked twice in one week. Unheard of.





Some birthday loves...


Next day, Carson working on a little birthday banner. A big piece of yellow paper, with Carson written in the middle. In very light pencil I might add, it was a beautiful banner.


I took the kids to Dollar Tree and let them pick out a few presents for their dad.


Carson's original idea was a giant pencil, I told him his dad wasn't a five year old ....so pick again.


All Lincoln cared about was balls and "pider-man".


final choices...a rope, a flashlight, a soccer ball, some tire cleaner and the "pider-man" car (courtesy of Lincoln). Thiago could not stop laughing at his gift...only a dad would love a bag full of crap.

Nothing Friday or Saturday...sorry hon, I had good intentions. The end of the week wore me out, and all you get is an I love you!!!


Sunday, Thiago's mom had a BBQ for our families with all of Thiago's favorite foods. Here is Lincoln enjoying, he is turning into a great little eater as long as he is allowed to feed himself. Which always ends in a giant mess.


Carson baby-sitting little Gina...this doll used to be Rosemary's and she ventures out every now and then in the pile of toys. Carson was getting a kick out of looking at her, he is a well-rounded child....wouldn't you say.







That wraps up birthday week...hope you had a great one honey. Mine this coming year will be interesting, lets hope I don't spend it in the hospital. The baby and I are going to most likely share birthday weeks. Mine is the 28th and my due date is around the 23rd. Hmmmmm....interesting.
