More March Birthdays

Easter weekend the kids got to celebrate two of their friends' birthdays. Unfortunately the parties were on the same day at the same time...so we had to split them up for separate parties. It actually worked out well because one friend was Timo's good buddy and the other friend was Cameron's best friend, Aidan.  So Young took Timo to the "Nothing But Hoops" party for Rylan and they had a great Daddy and Timo day together.  The basket was lower and the kids had a blast playing basketball...Timo even made a few baskets himself!
The boys love to go downtown and hit the big Apple store and Best Buy, see the cable cars and just wonder in and out of stores.  I texted at one point to see if they were having fun and these are the pics I got back!  I guess so.

Apparently the pizza at the party wasn't enough...they had to stop for a pizza snack.
Meanwhile, Cameron and I were having fun at Aidan's Dragon party.  They had a balloon man, face painting and a dragon eggs hunt!  Dragon faces all around.
The egg hunt was perfect because it was the day before Easter.  They must of had 150 eggs out there for the kids.  I loved that the eggs were filled with sticky bugs, dragons and other animal toys...kinda like opening the eggs and finding babies inside.  Each guest had a personalized egg too that was filled with glittery silly putty.  Such a great idea.
Aidan and Cameron were inseparable the whole party.  He took her all over his house, showed her his room, insisted they sit side by side for lunch and wanted her next to him when he blew out his candles.  Aidan's Great Grandma was there and mentioned wouldn't it be cute if they grew up and got married!  Slow down Grandma!  But it was pretty darn cute.  I'm glad his family got to see the special friendship us moms have seen for a while.  Thanks for having us at your party Aidan!!
We got loaded up on loot when we left too...blow up dragons (which Cameron sleeps with in her bed), balloons, and bubble guns...on top of our eggs, butterfly balloon and face paintings!  What a great party.  And it was so nice to just concentrate on Cameron for the whole day.  But as much fun as she had, she couldn't wait to get home and tell Timo all about her day!
I do have to mention one cute story about Cameron at the party.  The balloon guy made a big dragon out of balloons that Cameron thought was really cool and I guess she thought Timo would like it too..  She then started yelling for Timo, running through the room looking for Timo to tell him about the cool dragon.  I had to stop her and remind her that Timo wasn't with us.  She stopped, thought a second and then said "oh yeah, Mommy, I forgot.  Mommy, he would love this dragon, let's call him and tell him."  I guess she is so used to having him around all the time, it's hard NOT having him at her side, but not far from her thoughts.
