Jack's Birthday Party

Birthday Boy Jack

The girls' friend, Jack, turned 2 last week! Grammy, the girls and I went to his party at the Mountlake Terrace community center. Jack had a whole huge playroom just for his party! The girls were very shy at first, and slowly warmed up over the time we were there. But they mostly stuck together and to Mom and Grammy.

It was interesting to observe them in this setting, as there were a few other kids and lots of adults they didn't know. Emma was a little more adventurous, but neither of them really interacted with the other kids, even Jack who they know. They definitely clung to what was comfortable.

Emma had fun throwing the balls.

Mia preferred the kitchen setting. She whipped up dinner for us.

The kids enjoy "naks" and cupcakes at the table. Clockwise from left: Linnea, Emma, Mia, Caden, Jack. (Maggie not pictured.)

Best of friends.
