T-W-O

Yesterday my little man turned two and I could not have asked for a better day! Daddy took the day off from work to spend the day with us and we had such a great time celebrating. When I pulled up the pictures I realized it was actually quite an eventful day! We started out surprising David with his "new-upgraded" playroom. With the help from the grandparents we turned our upstairs gameroom into a special room for a special little man; thank y'all for pitching in! He absolutely loves it and wakes up every morning ready to play! Along with the playroom (which is not completely finished we are waiting on a book rack that is on back order and need to hang his new art display) David got a guitar from mommy and daddy for his birthday. He has such love and passion for music. He gets so excited when he sees someone playing a guitar on TV and actually picked this one out in the Land of Nod catalog.

We go to The Little Gym every Thursday and were so excited that Daddy could come and play. Of course, he was not really enthusiastic about having to leave his new playroom which made for a cranky start at the gym!

After Little Gym we picked up his favorite meal for lunch, "nuggies and french fries" from McDonalds. I swear the kid would eat them at every meal if we allowed him! We have to order the 10 pack nuggies because he inhales them. Needless to say we try to limit how often we frequent the golden arches.

He got two special deliveries on his birthday; which he loved opening! My best friend Melanie sent him some books and Aunt Sarah and the girls sent him a piano; which may be one of his favorite gifts! He is very serious about sitting on the stool and playing a song while singing in the mircrophone, it is so adorable!

While he was napping I baked him a cake; which I cannot tell you how long it has been since I have made one and I think after this years experience we will just buy a cupcake for him to enjoy from now on. He seemed to love it, which was the most important thing and it made me feel better about all the effort that went into it! We have been practicing blowing out candles over the past week in preparation for this specific occassion and he did it like a champ, with a little assistance from Daddy! What a wonderful birthday with some great memories! We are so excited about celebrating this weekend with friends and family!

Happy 2nd Birthday, David!! Mommy and Daddy love you so much!
