Birthdays!!!

Well....The twins turned one on the 8th and had their first birthday party on the 14th. Jason's mom got into town on 10th so we waited for her before we had the big party. They had a lot of fun, but got tired before all the presents were opened. Which meant that they got to have fun the next day too. After their party was over and all of the guests left, we took them swimming for the first time. Jason took Kimbry in the big pool and Gran took Kenadie in the baby pool. They both had a great time. Camryn wasn't sold on the whole "being in water" idea. We got her to hang her feet in the pool but that was it. When we got home, she said she'd go in the water if Mama went with her. We waited a few days and went back. She still wanted to get just her feet wet, but I had gotten dressed for the event too. I carried her right on into the water. It was a tad cold, but we got used to it. I didn't stay in very long. Camryn, however, didn't want to get out. I think we finally broke her fear of water! We had her birthday party yesterday. She didn't like the attention she got and threw a fit. The only thing she wanted to do was cut into her cake and have some ice cream. Good girl!! She opened her presents this morning and loved it and then we took the girls to Wal-Mart and had their pictures taken in their matching khaki shorts and Ragin' Cajun t-shirts that Gran and Pa had made for them. Tomorrow is Camryn's 4th birthday and I believe Gran is leaving. The girls all adore her and we'll all miss her like crazy. Things seem to go so much smoother when there's an extra set of hands to help out. I'm sure I'll feel like having a meltdown before all is said and done. Maybe not....after all I've survived 4 years of Camryn and a full year of Camryn and the twins. Hmmm....Guess we'll see. All in all, the Wilfong family is doig great!!!
