Birthdays, friends and zzzzzz.....

We had a pretty busy Saturday this weekend, which left me hoarse by the end of the day and with absolutely no voice at all this morning. Eek! Good thing this isn't a video blog, or it may play out like a game of charades. First word...

Cousin Tommy's first birthday party in Pacifica was relocated from the Park to G-ma and G-pa Cecchins house due to the... err... Pacifica weather. In preparation for the park, we had tried several hat options on Marco. Sadly, many didn't fit! I bought lots of little hats before he was born thinking... winter... hats are cute... but I didn't prepare myself for my baby having such rockin' hair, so he hasn't worn any of them! Any small heads out there looking for hats? Anyone?

The party was really fun, most of the kids had fun, although Marco and Clara napped wrapped in matching blankets. Marco's goodie bag was filled with formula samples, so we'll be giving that a go this week sometime. Thanks Auntie M!

The theme was Thomas the Tank Engine (which explains Jeff in the engineer's hat I hope) so Tom made a personalized Thomas cake for Tommy which was AMAZING. Seriously, like, maybe-this-is-his-new-profession good.

On the way out of town, we stopped in to see the Trecrocis to drop a birthday gift for Bethie. Bethie was very proud to hold the baby, Ben was so sweet to Marco and Luke I think wondered why he wasn't the baby. They've all gotten so big, it's incredible.

Heading out to the Middle East Bay, we had a great dinner with friends while Marco hung with the babies and slept in the swing. We waaaay overstayed our welcome (shocking), got home late and hence woke up with no voice. Needless to say, we spent Sunday curled up on the couch while Jeff baked several types of bread. Yum!

Here is Jeff with the Eggert girls. Isn't Makenzie becoming so pretty? Jeff likes to hang with Sadie because baldness is relative. First Jeff thought that was his bald spot in the mirror, but luckily it was Sadie, so I got to post the pic.
