One Year Old!

All the grandparents, two of the uncles, and some friends came over for the boys' first birthday party the weekend after my first exams.

Here's Jonah unwrapping his first present...

and getting very excited about it!

Owen liked playing with the envelope while Mama read the card.

This is just a typical Jonah face, recently.

Working as a team on the next one.

And Owen enjoying paper, again!

Now here he is at his usual self: trying to figure out how it works.

Then they both tried shaking everything. Shake Shake shake!

*pause to rest*

Shake Shake Shake!

Mama bought them musical instruments. A drum:

And a xylophone

Here's their friend Caylie getting in on the fun.

Next on to the birthday cake!

These are pretty self-explanatory.

Here are a few videos of the event:

Owen apparently doesn't like cake on his hands.

And here's some hilarious videos of them pushing each other in a sled that my brother brought up, courtesy of his friend and her son.

First Owen pushing Jonah...

Then Jonah pushing Owen.

Happy birthday, boys!

Here are a couple of Owen peeking out from a hiding place.

And a few of them playing in the yard with the stroller while Grammy was visiting!

Next, aJonah trying on my stethoscope. He actually liked it!

We went pumpkin picking with some of our new med school friends one evening, and although I didn't have my camera, I took a few photos with the cell phone.
