The Big Day

Julesy had a great birthday, and is definitely convinced that he is a "big boy" now! He wore his crown and had a pizza to celebrate, then dove into some presents that showed up in a shopping cart! We had fun unveiling his new easel and, as always, somebody ends up pooped in a chair with a "boggle*."

*Speaking of "boggle", since J's birthday, we all agreed (2 out of 3 anyway) that it was time to give up the bottle, because there are "babies that need them and big boys use cups" when they're 2. So we had a short but sweet "ceremony" where we let Julesy take each bottle and say bye-bye, as he put them in a bag. We left the bag on the porch for the stork to pick up for other babies to use. First night was a challenge, but after night three we are doing quite well...we'll see...stay tuned.
