We started off our weekend at Grandma's with yet another birthday party. Erik's second birthday cake of the weekend. Grandpa's birthday was on Wednesday so it was our belated celebration. Both boys were very excited for birthday cake, even Elliot who now gets occasional bites since he turned one. I would not give it to him at all, but since he is very observant about food it is unavoidable.
Here are both boys staring down the cake anxiously awaiting their first bites.
Our first of many tastes of birthday cake over this weekend. We had a lot of leftovers and the kids really got to indulge unfortunately. I think Erik needs to take a sugar break very very soon. Unfortunately we have a birthday party we are invited to every single weekend this month. So not sure when that will be.
Early on Monday morning we headed out to the Oak View Memorial Day parade. It was absolutely adorable and extremely homespun. Erik even got to drive in the parade in Grandpa's Model A.
After our big morning the boys went to their grandparents to nap and I convinced Carl that we needed to look and test drive some cars so when a private seller showed up on craigslist we would be able to know exactly what car we wanted. Well of course we found a great car at a great price and ended up buying it. So we had to say good-bye to our good old Escape, the car I brought Elliot home from the hospital in.
After a long afternoon at the dealership we took everyone out to pizza as a thank you for babysitting. We love Ojai pizza, although I have to admit I am getting sick of it because we go there every time we visit. The first picture is just an image of the pizza pan. We accidentally ordered just enough pizza and had no leftover and no chance to overstuff ourselves on pizza.
Oh let's not forget to include the picture of mama, so this weekend is not entirely motherless.
