We had a lovely day yesterday. Little Daniel did not let us down with his sunny smile so the heavy rain did not matter.
Both the boys were so good considering them neither of them had their usual nap during the day. Daniel almost took his first step! He can stand unaided for quite a few seconds now and it cannot be too long before he is toddling around and getting into everything, not that he does not do that now. He also loves to clap his hands along with Nathan when we sing their favourite songs and he just beams the whole time. He also loves to play with the t.v. now he has discovered he can turn it on and off and we have to screen the computer so he cannot get to it as he loves to turn that on and off as well!
Of course, both boys enjoyed playing with the boxes rather than the presents but that is typical of children the world over.
We had a nice little cake and for once, I ignored my blood sugars, there was no way I was going to miss a piece of that. The boys love the bubble machine I bought for them and which I keep here. I have to get it out whenever they visit. Nathan giggles every time I start it, Daniel is a bit bemused but they both love to pop the bubbles when they land on the floor.
I have made a little video for you so that you can share in some of what the day was like. Somewhere there are pictures with Dean in as well but I think Becky has those.
So sit back and join in with our little family celebration.
Hope that you enjoyed that.
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend, a bank holiday for us Brits. Let us hope the weather remains fine. Whatever you are doing and whoever you are with, have fun.

I enjoyed looking at the birthday photos. . arent they fine boys! Bet you have a lot of fun with those two,like two little sunbeams in your lives. !!
I love the video. Now can you add your own audio to that? When I make a video with my digital camera I can of course talk, or just record whatever I'm shooting at the time. Both boys are so cute. Won't they have fun as they get older. Two best friends! Linda in WA
What a wonderful photo tribute to Daniel's birthday! You have such a lovely family and the cutest grandsons! I love all the pictures but I have to say, the last one of Daniel with the full smile has to be my favorite. What a little angel face! I could just kiss those cheeks! Your love for these little guys and your family just pours out in your entries. You are blessed and so are they!
Love, Kathy

Hi Jeannette,
What a smashing video, Daniel looks so happy, bless his little heart. He seems to be at the same stage as Roman, six teeth and standing unaided. They`ll soon be walking, hopefully at the same time...lol!
Sandra xxxx
PS: Isn`t he tall? We call Roman `short stuff` because of his little legs...lol!
Oh the kids are so cute. They both have grown so much. Looks like they loved the bubbles the most...really good pictures...Happy Birthday to the little one...Sandi
