Twins Turn Two!

It's hard to believe but the twins turned two on August 6th.   It was a beautiful weekend to celebrate their Birthday's and boy did they get into it this year.   Last year they fell asleep but this year,despite not taking a nap, managed to stay awake and open presents.    We cooked their favorite spaghetti dinner and had a Beaverton Bakery cake.  Daddy took the boys in the morning to the steam-up tractor show.   They absolutely love tractors and had a great time at this show.   Then it was back to the house for their Birthday party with family.

After dinner, the boys climbed up on the table to open presents.  It was so cute watching them. They got so excited when they saw what was under the wrapping.   Cole would carefully open all the wrapping paper before looking at the gift.  Tygh would tear open the gift and shreak in delight at the gift.  Then Cole would have to look at Tygh's present before realizing he had the same.

Cole has to check out all of Tygh's presents.

We ended the fun day with Thomas the Train cake and singing Happy Birthday.  Both boys joined in on the song as they know the words pretty well.   Then it was time to tackle the cake.  Cole forked the entire piece and ate it in a few minutes.  Tygh took small bites and never did finish it.   I wonder if this goes back to my pregnancy with them where Cole was getting all the food and leaving Tygh very little.   It is so fascinating to watch the growing differences in personalities between them.   We are looking forward to seeing how the terrible two's plays out with them.

Cole all done and Tygh barely getting started.
