Happy Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday Ky-Ky

One year ago today, you decided to enter this world in a unique way.  As you got a little too comfortable in the womb and didn’t want to move, you gave us all a scare.  But you arrived one day sooner than planned and we could not have been happier.

This past year has enriched our lives beyond belief.  You have shown us a side of your brothers that we have only seen through you.  You have decided to give Micah a run for his money and given us just as many laughs.  We can see a deep, deep friendship developing between the two of you.

You have helped Ranen mature in many ways as your older brother and he is very protective of you.  You bring a smile to his face that is so genuine that we can see how much he really loves you.

God has blessed you in so many ways with two tremendous brothers of which I always wished I had.  You have made us forget what life was like without you.  You have offset the testosterone and added more balance.  You are so tender, sweet and affectionate.  You have your Daddy wrapped around his finger although he likes to think it is the other way around.  You have been unanimously given the nickname of Ky-Ky.  I was resistant at first but it just grew and now we all love our Ky-Ky.

On this very special day, we would like to wish you the Happiest 1st Birthday!!!

We love you!!!

 

The Rest of the Trip

Now that we are home, I am able to update about the rest of our trip before we celebrate Kaiya’s birthday tomorrow.

While at the cabin, we got lots of snuggle time in.  This is usually rare for Ranen, so we took advantage of it.  Good thing I have a big lap in order to fit all three of them at once.

Jason and I hardly ever get pictures of the two of us.  So we set the timer and had a beautiful backdrop.

We even got a family picture.

The boys liked the little face on the tree.

At the entrance of Ashe Lake before we headed up the mountain to the cabin was a little waterfall.  We hiked in a little bit to show the boys.

Another “almost” family picture.

This is what Kaiya was doing in the van.

After getting in the van, I tried to take a picture of the boys.

Good thing I got this one at the beginning of our trip.

Here is Kaiya just roaming around.   We were truly able to relax because the cabin was so nicely baby-proofed.

More pictures of the sunrises.  I was able to see all 3 of them while we were there.

We got a family picture as we all watched the sunrise on the second morning.

Micah admiring the view.

The boys got to drink “coffee” aka hot chocolate with Mommy and Daddy as we watched the sun come up.

On Saturday we went to the New River Zoo.  More accurately, it is a guy that has an exotic animal license.  It was not very clean and there were not a lot of animals but the boys won’t know the difference.

We DID get to feed the animals though.

These two followed us around quite a bit.

Kaiya was loving it.

After a little warming up, Micah was ready to feed the goats.

We went down a dead end that had a lot of leaves.

So we posed.

Kaiya was ready to get out of the stroller and play.

This was a funny picture as they baked under the lights.

Then it was back to the cabin again.  I got some pictures of inside the cabin.  It was a little difficult to find the right setting on the camera because the lighting was tricky.

The very last day, Micah decided to befriend the bear that had been sharing a room with him.

We had a wonderful time and we will be definitely going back.
