Happy Birthday, Stephan!

Stephan turned the big 1-0 this week! Double digits! It is exciting to see the young man he has become, but makes me a little sad too. I am glad he is not growing up too quickly though...he still likes to snuggle with us, read stories at night & thinks it is fun to hang out with his old mom & dad. He is such a sweetie and has a good, good heart.



On his actual birthday, we had a quiet family dinner at home with just the four of us. Then we went to the Brewers game courtesy of Pops & Liza. Stephan had a BLAST. Actually, that is an understatement. He stood and cheered the whole night and tried so hard to start the wave. I just stared at him. It was a picture of pure joy and fun. And although we have been to games many times before and know all the games they play on the scoreboard, Stephan was thrilled when he guessed the correct attendance. It made his night. And Norah, wow, did she have fun. I was a little nervous she would squirm around and just want to crawl, but the game was the perfect place to do her two favorite things...wave & clap. She stood on my lap and waved at the people behind us all night. ALL night! She made quite a few new friends including a little boy named Jack who came to sit near us. Stephan said it was his best birthday.


On the way to the game....
