Half-a birthday to you

The main drawback to having a December birthday is (obviously) its proximity to Christmas. Since Britt's birthday is a week before Christmas, we usually try to do some kind of celebration in June, for his half-birthday. This year I decided to take it a bit further... I made him half a cake, he got to blow out three and a half candles, he wore half of a birthday hat, and he got half of a present. (You can probably see his present on his left hand in the picture. It was a baseball glove without a ball- haha...)



On another note, happy birthday today to Ellee! I remember three years ago, yesterday, being so excited about Brooke being in labor because if she had Ellee on the 17th then she and Britt would be exactly 6 months apart. Ellee had other plans though, and waited until 4-something the next morning to be born. I guess 6 months and 1 day is alright. :)
