Birthday Balloons



These have been tightly gripped in his hands since yesterday afternoon when Shaune came home on his break between school and work with a cake, a beautiful pair of earrings, flowers and these most coveted balloons. Thank you all for the wonderful wishes - it made swallowing this milestone so much more lovely.

  1. This is ADORABLE!! I didn't know that today was balloon day, but I might need to get a balloon to partcipate. I'll be careful though- they float, and it's tricky!! SO CUTE!!!

  2. Your beautiful boy brought tears to my eyes. I love, that after all of his quick thinking, and reasoning, that his solution was to share. Why can't everyone be like that!

    I hope your day was PERFECT Kim:)

  5. Shaune is a good guy! I'm going to have Grant get some pointers from him.

    Loved the video! Really sweet.

    Hope you're having a great day, Kim!

  6. He has just the sweetest voice. I like how he said you could have them back on Thursday if you were good at Grandma's house. Are you ever NOT good at Grandma's house?!? His expression was so sweet when you told him it was actually Thursday.

    Love it. I wish T Rex would not get so jiggy when I pull out the camera. Deaglan just chats along with you. T Rex starts hopping about and being goofy. I'll show him the video when he wakes up. Maybe he will learn from D's example.

  12. Wow, he is so, so smart...His face when you told him it was already Thursday and then the switch to Tuesday, awesome. His realizing that the balloon floats and him wanting to make a game to stop balloons from floating away...so cool. Happy Balloon Day, I mean Birthday. ;)

  13. I guess when a mom gives – it’s forever – or at least until – ooops – Thursday. So many details to keep straight. What’s yours is his, what’s his is his, and you’re his – it he’s your – so I guess it all works out. An amazing conversation. Thank you. Anyway is “in between” Saturday – Tomorrow I wish a Happy Easter to you. God bless and keep you and all of yours.
