Silas is 1!

Happy Birthday Silas! On July 2 Silas turned 1. We had lots of fun celebrating with family and friends. It's always so hard to believe how fast time flys by. We are so blessed to have a happy, healthy little boy. We love you Silas.





















Silas enjoyed opening his presents. He loves the paper. He would take only little bits at a time and hold them up to show us. He was so proud of himself.

























Great Grandpa and Granny even came surprised us with their visit. Silas had lots of fun playing with them.







Silas shared his little pool with his friend Teagan and cousin Gideon.















Silas LOVED his cake.









He was so sad when his piece was all gone and he saw me cutting more. So I gave in and he got more.




















We Love Cousins

During the end of June we got to have lots of fun playing with our Jaeger cousins. We got to go to Appleton to celebrate Gideon's 1st birthday. Henry and Gideon also got to come over to our house for a day and play with us. We can't wait to see them all again up at the cabin.

All the kids at the party except Silas and Jack.




Grandma Joyce had a fun idea to get out the pool because it was so hot. Thank goodness Henry had a lot of clothes the girls could borrow at the end of teh party.

Grandma Beth Came

We were so lucky because Grandma Beth flew out to visit us. She came right into the craziness of moving furniture in the house and getting things settled after getting the floors done. We had a lot of fun while she was here and she was even nice enough to help us paint and put in contact paper for us. We were sad to see her go but we are excited to see her in August along with the rest of the Bergs.



We got to go see a parade in town.






Waiting for it to start.







Walking home with a bag full of candy. You got to love small town parades (especially when there aren't any other kids by you so you don't have to compete for the candy).




Silas got an early birthday present from Grandma and Grandpa. He loves it. He especially likes throwing the little balls across the room.








Playing the new game Grandma brought for Norah.




Practicing his silly face.




Norah and Grandma's tea party. Grandma told Norah they would have a tea party when she came to visit just like in Alice in Wonderland.




She loved pouring the "tea."








We went with Grandma to Cedarburg to go and visit Great Grandma Berg. Grandma Berg loved seeing Silas. Norah colored a picture for Grandma and also sang her the alphabet song. Grandma giggled and smiled after Norah's song. We were very happy we got to visit with her. Love you Grandma Berg!




We are so happy Grandma Beth came and visited with us. We had a great time.
