Keith spent his birthday making a day trip to his cousin's wedding in Oklahoma (Congratulations Aly!) but I did get the chance to give him his big manly gift before he left town - a super large tool chest on wheels. He was excited and definitely not expecting it. My quad-mom friend Casey recently got one for her husband too and we decided that the gift is really a gift to ourselves so our husbands tools can finally have a designated place other than the garage floor! On Sunday morning he was greeted by the babies wearing onesies designed especially for daddy: "Happy Birthday, Daddy", "Daddy, You're My Buddy" and ""I Love You, Daddy" were donned by Hayden, Payson and Madison, respectively.
There is a darling little grassy nook a few streets down overlooking the golf course so I took Keith there for a family picnic.
After our picnic the babies and I gave Keith a birthday present that cracked him up - castings of the babies' tooshies! What a perfect way to embarrass future teenagers! Thanks Anna for the idea and Morgan for your helping hands! Then Pops and Nunie (my dad and step-mom) watched the babies for a few hours while I surprised Keith with an unusual outing full of fun. We did batting cages, go-carts, putt-putt, air-hockey and car racing, completely wearing ourselves out all before noon!Happy Birthday, baby! I hope you're first birthday as a dad was a memorable one!
