Madison's birthday: part 2 of 2...

Here we are sitting next to Uncle Mike. Gage loves his Uncle Mike, and that day, in fact, he asked to hold his hand on the way to the party room.

I love this picture! Gage looks like he is looking up at a skyscraper when he looks up at Uncle Mike. Isn't this a great image of looking up to someone?!

Madison was so cute that day in her little birthday tiara. And doesn't Gage look like he's ready to pounce? "When can we eat the cake, Mom? Is it really necessary to cut it in slices?"

Gage likes to ride on Daddy's shoulders, though neither of them like it for that long, so I have to snap the picture quickly when it's happening. Brent is very ambitious, because he says that he's willing to walk/run with both boys in the Bolder Boulder this year. And I just really hope that his shoulders and arms don't break with all of the "hold you!" that goes on around here. My plan is to run it with some friends and come back to join my boys in their walking wave...and do some holding of my own, I imagine.
