Birthday Party for GF

 Our across the back alley neighbors have two little boys.  One is about one week older than Levi.  Their second is about seven months older than Kara Jane - and invited us to his second birthday party at Wee Flip.  We had never been before, but both kids had a blast.

Levi found the trampoline.

Kara Jane found the swing.  Have I told you how much this little girl loves to swing??  She also found a pretty big slide that she loved.  I was too busy trying to keep her from hitting her head or hurting herself to get a picture, but she really had a GREAT time.

 Then Kara Jane decided she needed to dance.

 They both loved to ball pit.

 Our neighbors think of every detail for their children's parties.  This one was dinosaur themed - and each kid got to take home a dinosaur tail.

 Before we left, Kara Jane got pushed on a little train by the big brother of the party boy.

A few interesting things / updates on Kara Jane.  She cut eight teeth in the matter of about two weeks, for a total of twelve teeth.  She also weighs as much and looks a little taller than today's birthday boy (age 2).  She has become quite independent as well, wanting to walk by herself to her class in the mornings when Kevin takes the kids to school.  She likes to walk herself out of her class in the afternoons, too.  I think she's really hoping that if she walks, she'll get to go to the playground for some extra time on the swing and a few slides down the slide.

Things pregnancy wise are going okay.  Hard to believe, but today is 31 weeks.  Levi has also decided that Roo's middle name is Sunshine.  At the Big Brother class he attended with Kevin, he told the class that he was having a little sister whose name was Roo Sunshine.  I'm afraid of how disappointed he will be when we finally do choose a name that is not Roo Sunshine - even though I know I know what her nickname around our house will be.  Levi has also been very sweet in the mornings if he sees me before I go to work - gives me a "big hug" and has to give Roo a "little something" -- a kiss on my belly.
