Wednesday night, we celebrated Helen's birthday by having her over to grill hamburgers. Nathan loves birthday parties and wanted to get Grandmother balloons, pick out her cake, and wear party hats! We played outside for a while before Wayne got home. Nathan and Charlotte are so cute together. As Charlotte is getting older, she and Nathan are playing together more and more. Of course, they still have their moments of getting on each other's nerves, but mostly they are sweet with each other. Charlotte loves to do whatever her big brother does, and Nathan loves to BE the big brother and act like he's the one in charge :) He's done a really good job of trying to teach her how to go down the slide and play ball with him. Now he's working on getting her to swing!
After eating our burgers, Nathan passed out the party hats, sang Happy Birthday, and helped Grandmother blow out her candles. We actually had to light the candles twice. Nathan was all set to blow them out with Helen, but she accidentally blew them out all at once! It was so funny because Nathan kind of looked at us like, "I thought I was going to help you." So Wayne re-lit them, and Nathan beat her to it that time! Nathan was so cute when he asked what her wish was. When she told him it was a secret, he just could not understand why she wouldn't tell him. I kind of like the fact that he doesn't know yet that if you tell your wish, it won't come true...he always tells us his wishes!
Happy Birthday Grandmother! We love you!
