We went to a birthday party on Sunday -- and got our first taste of Spring (it was sunny and 67 degrees). The party was a petting zoo brought to you -- it was in the next door neighbor's back yard! The boys had so much fun at the party. They spent a good 30 minutes before the party watching the people unload the animals and set up.
There was lots of discussion before the party about who would ride the horsey -- both Benjamin and Ethan said they wanted to. When it cam down to it, only Ethan got on the horse. He had huge smile on his face to whole ride!
Yep, that is a goat. The boys were trying to feed the goat crackers. We had to tell Ethan SEVERAL times not to eat the crackers himself!
Farmer Ethan wanted to pet everything -- this was the cow.
Ethan, eating a cupcake, preparing for the messiness that will happen on his birthday!
Benjamin licking the icing off of his.
The Spring weather quickly left us as the wind blew in 37 degrees with a windchill in the lower 20s. I sure hope that Spring is really just around the corner!
Benjamin just had his three year check up -- he is healthy and growing like crazy. The doctor told me that "he is not underweight, just over tall!" Benjamin is taller then 89% of the boys his age. And, weighs more then 50% of the boys his age. He had to get one shot, which resulted in "boo boo leg" and much "mommy carry, me" all day yesterday and this morning. (Thanks Uncle Evan for you help at the doctor's office!)

Looks like those boys love cupcakes, the staple of all children's birthday parties.
Great pictures! Both are growing so much. Ethan is looking like a little boy now and not a baby. Benjamin is probably taller than most boys in his class.
Love,
Papaw
