Dress Me Kitty & Monkey-Molly's gifts to Sam & Stella


I am a few days behind in posting the birthday blog and pics, but I am giving myself a "pass" since it was also Halloween weekend and we had a wedding in Georgetown to attend on Saturday.  SO, Samuel Jack and Stella Frances turned one last Thursday, the 28th of October!!!  We did our one year pediatrician appointment on their birthday and their stats are all great.  Sam still outweighs Stella by 3 lbs, but she is almost an inch taller than him :)  They also got 4 shots each that day (no fun, but they tolerated it well).  Momsie and Pappa arrived on their birthday and we got the weekend started early.   Friday was full of fun getting ready for their birthday party (which was also our 3rd annual pumpkin carving party)!  Lots of friends and family came - all bringing gifts and pumpkins to carve.  Everyone had a wonderful time and Eric smoked ribs, brisket, and chicken that all of our guests raved about.  We also had beans, made by Eric, and lots of yummy sides.  Sam thoroughly enjoyed his punkin birthday cake..........Stella, not so much!  It was straight to the bathtub after that and then on to bed for the ONE YEAR OLDS!!!  Thanks to everyone who shared in our celebration!  It's been a great year, sometimes harder than others, but I wouldn't change it for the world.  We are so blessed to have such a wonderful support system of family and friends- It really does take a village!
