birthday party Elmopalooza!

We had a small Elmo themed bash at our house to celebrate jena's birthday. We only had family and close friend because I didn't want Jena to be too overwhelmed. As it was she stuck close to me for the first hour, until it was clear that none of the guests were babysitters in disguise.
Earlier in the day I took the girls swimming. It was Jenas first trip to the pool and she is proving to be a little fish just like her sister. She splashed kicked and didn't throw a fit when I dunked her under. Stef was already swimming under water at two, so we have to get things going with Jena!
