Happy Birthday Elli...

On Saturday, we went to Elli's birthday party.
Mmm Birthday cake.
This is Zachary's "I need more cake" look.

Dimitri being silly.

Mommy and Zachary.

This picture makes us laugh, Dimitri looks like a little monkey trying to to help Elli blow out her candles. We hope Elli had a happy birthday!

2010 Taylorsville Dayzz...

It's that time of year again.

On Thursday, Cicily had a board meeting so I decided to take the kids to Taylorsville Dayzz.

On the roller coaster.

The boys rode the roller coaster all by themselves.

Brothers...so Dimitri and Zachary were in line to ride the train. The gate opens and Dimitri hops in the train car with a girl and ditches his brother. Boys, boys, boys!

Zachary still had fun on the train.

Monster trucks.

Dimitri on the dragon.

Zachary showed no fear.

Dimitri and Zachary both loved the space ship.

Okay, so I had to take this picture. This was the first time that Zachary used an outhouse, thank goodness we were the first ones to use it. Dimitri used his first outhouse this year and freaked when he walked in and smelled it.

Whoa...watch out below!
This is the first time Zachary rode down the BIG slide by himself.

A perfect crash landing.

Zachary was so excited!

Yay Dimitri!
We had a great time at Taylorsville Dayzz!

Chocolate Pie...

Today, we went to the Sharp's house for a Father's Day BBQ and Bella stole the show. Our job was to bring a pie and Angela said Bella loves banana pie but we chose our favorite...chocolate.

Well it looks like Bella didn't mind the chocolate pie.

Bella is licking the plate.

Look how happy she looks.

Looks like Mommy and Bella both enjoyed the chocolate pie. So cute!

Exhausted...

Dimitri had a big day. Today, we went to Toy Story 3, lunch with friends, he rode his bike and four wheeler, etc... Guess he must have been exhausted because all of a sudden he was watching Cars and he disappeared. We thought he must be in his room playing with his toys or downstairs playing with the trains but we could not find him. Finally, we looked in our room and there he was on our bed. Dimitri had covered himself up with his Cars blanket and fell asleep. How cute is he? Seriously!

Our Toy Story 3 Adventure...

Today, we took the boys to see Toy Story 3. This was the first trip to the movie theatre for our boys.

Dimitri and Zachary's first theatre.

Ahhhh....so cute.

Waiting for our friends to arrive.

Zachary and Dimitri.

Zachary was so excited to see Kira (Stephanie, Kenny, Jacqui, and Logan are in the back of the picture).

Dimitri was so excited to see this movie. In fact, he has literally been marking the days off on his calendar.

Logan, Zachary, Dimitri and Kira before the movie.

Kira and her Daddy Kenny.

Hip Hip Horray for a Toy Story 3 movie day!

What a difference 4 years makes...

Dimitri Constantine Vasilacopulos.

June 14, 2006 (8lbs 1 oz)

June 14, 2010 (38.8 lbs)
What a difference 4 years make...

Happy Birthday Dimitri...

Why does Dimitri look so excited?
That's right....it is because yesterday he officially turned 4 years old.

Dimitri loves pancakes for breakfast, so Matri took him to McDonald's.
While at McDonald's this woman thought Dimitri was adorable and asked if she could go down the slide with him. Dimitri makes friends wherever he goes and this was no exception...too cute!

From there they were off to Home Depot where Dimitri was adding items to his wish list.
Dimitri also had his four year old check up and couldn't understand why the slit went in the back. According to Dimitri we should wear the gown like a jacket.
Dr. Gustin let Dimitri listen to his heart. Dr. Gustin is an amazing doctor and we are lucky to have her. Dr. Gustin said that Dimitri is very smart and is in great health. Dimitri weighs 38.8 lbs and is 40.55 inches tall.

We thought Dimitri was done with his shots until he starts Kindergarten but he was two shots behind, so we decided we might as well give him four shots now so he doesn't need any when he starts school. Dimitri has been a little afraid of needles since the IV incident, but our brave little boy didn't even cry.

Our birthday boy.

For dinner we went to Joe's Crab Shack so the boys could play on the slides.

Zachary had a great time.

Our birthday rock star.

Our adorable four year old. Dimitri it is hard to believe that you are four years old. You are an amazing little boy who brings so much joy into our lives. Happy Birthday Sweetheart! We love you-to infinity and beyond!

Dimitri's birthday party...

On Saturday we celebrated Dimitri's birthday.

Dimitri loves Toy Story.

Zachary and Bella.

Zachary is trying to lean in for a kiss.

Bella and Hadleigh meet for the first time and decided the best way to get to know one another is to bite each other's fingers.

Dimitri and Gunner.

Kira and Zachary.

Bella loved hitting the pinata.

Hadleigh was up next.

Colter had a great hit.

Zachary was determined.

Kira did a great job.

Gunner took a huge swing.

The Birthday Boy is up next.

Elli hit the pinata hard.

Finally Austin was able to break the pinata open.

Look at those eyes.

Dimitri making a wish and blowing out his candles.

Dimitri and Papou Yanni. We owe Papou Yanni a special thank you. Papou Yanni made all the arrangements for the birthday party to be moved since the weather outside was horrible. Thank you Papou Yanni.

Look at that face.

Dimitri was so excited to get his big Buzz Lightyear action figure.
Dimitri has always wanted his own bubble gum machine.
Dimitri was so excited.

Dimitri and Mommy.

We would like to thank everyone for coming to Dimitri's birthday and for the wonderful gifts. Happy 4Th Birthday Dimitri! We love you!
