Happy 89th Birthday Papa Obie

So today we had great weather for January & headed out to Granny/Papa Obie's for a surprise birthday party! You could tell he was really happy to have everyone there. After singing an off-key version of happy birthday, Sean, Aydan, Brooklyn & Paul headed outside. Someone gave Aydan a new jump rope & given that he doesn't stop until he's mastered it, started jumping. Sean wanted to show off that he still had skills & jumped even after jamming a toe & turning it black & blue. Books thought everyone was just silly & showed them that they don't need a rope to jump! LOL
Dylan was inside, hanging out with X, playing "snag the pacifier." He'd take it out of X's mouth, try to put it back & repeat several times. Every now & then, he'd lean over & give him a big ol drooling kiss on the forehead. We're also giving Dylan credit for taking his first step today! Yeah!! It was towards aunt Mere Mere who was holding up a shiny round christmas ornament.
Both the Cats & the Bengals were on today, but we headed out around 5 as both of our kids were about to crash. Bengals ended up losing their wildcard game.
