Happy Birthday Julian!
mmm birthday cupcakes.
Here's Julian and Buzz, he has barely put Buzz down since he got this and had to be talked into letting big brother look at it for even a few minutes. When he saw the package for it he started dancing around and yelling "Buzz Lightyear! Buzz Lightyear!"
What is this?
Big Brother offers to lend a hand.
Julian on his new scooter, its just like big brother's
Heres how you do it Julian.
Now they can form a gang. Sarah got one too so they can all go out together.
Mom and Julian share a birthday! Happy Birthday Mom! 
Niko's friends brought him lots of presents and they all played together really well, Sarah referee'd the unwrapping.
Here is the crew having Birthday cupcakes. Julian is at the head of the table, Lizzy is on the left, then Niko and Braden, Lincoln and Otto on the right.
Here is Niko and Braden, Niko is going in for second, maybe it was thirds.
Julian and me, notice he still has Buzz and Woody.
When is everybody getting here?
Here is a good picture of Julian and Grandpa, Niko got Buzz and Woody and Julian thinks they are his. He has scarcely put them down since Niko unwrapped them. Its been a test for big brother's patience.
Mom and Bill, getting away from the commotion of the party
Dad, Mark, Donnie and Nate in the backyard. The weather gods smiled on us and it didn't rain.
Thank god for the summer weather, Niko has been wanting to play in the water and there is nothing like some high 80s to pull that off. He also wanted to test an umbrella, and thought I should help. It was pretty fun.
Julian is getting big, he'll be two in a little over a month!
He's getting around good, underneath the swing set is one of his favorite places to hang out.
This winter we watched a lot of Toy Story, a Buzz Lightyear spaceship was in order.
Here is buzz and Spidey, the flew to moon and fought Craven the Hunter and the evil emporer Zurg.
They also practiced flying like Superman on the swing set.
