I didn’t realize that there’d be free birth control at Riley’s birthday party, but pretty much, that’s what 20 little kids who are mostly from 4 months – 4 years old running around like mad and screaming will do for you. The kids had a ton of fun though. It was Riley’s 2nd birthday and the party was at Gymboree, which is kid paradise. Tons of stuff to play around on and a crazy instructor lady who gets them singing and dancing and jumping and riled up, in general.
My brother brought my nieces, Jessica & Stephanie (on the left), so it was nice that I got to see them too. One of my old coworkers from when I lived in WI more than 6 years ago came to the party. I hadn’t seen Linda since Nancy’s baby shower and I hadn’t seen Bruce, her husband, for even longer. And I’d never even met her kids, Jacob and Joshua, before. So it was good to see all of them. So weird, though. I’ve seen so many photos of Jacob and Joshua that I feel like I’ve seen them grow up even though I never met them in person before.

Thanks for coming and taking the pictures Aunt Shell! After you left, Riley said “Shell go?”
That place is way to intense for me, but the kids seem to really like it. Jess was kind of shy at first, but by the end of the party she didn’t want to leave.
i love cupcakes!
btw, in that picture of jacob and joshua, joshua looks less than thrilled.
