Birthday Presents!

Since we spent a good part of the twins birthday at the doctor, opening presents happened in the evening after dinner and cupcakes! I cook the children's favorite food for supper and they got to use their chopsticks like Harmony and Hadabachi. And since I was running a 101 fever myself, I skipped the homemade cupcakes and used a box mix...don't judge...the kids did't know the difference.



Then it was time for presents! Timo starts Teeball in a few weeks so we got him a big boy bat, bases and a new glove!

Cameron got a big Bullseye and a new Tinkerbell DVD...her favorite characters right now.

And then they got a race track together! Cameron has been asking for one for a while now but I knew Timo would take it over if she got one...so they got one with two cars to share!

The track is really cool...it's called "shake and go". You shake the cars to make them go. No controls needed! And the cars run on and off the track...as you can see in the second video.



Harmony and Hadabachi gave the children more trains (always a hit) and umbrellas!! Now we are set to walk in the rain!

Then came cards from Granny and Grandpa and Great Grandma Cameron which has "ticket money" in them!! Ohhhh, Timo's eyes lit up with he saw his ticket money!

We managed to finish up our birthday on a high note...cupcakes and presents have a way of doing that! Happy Birthday my two big 4 year olds! (I promise to get your 4 year letters done soon!)
