Happy Birthday!

Cheese!

In this second photo, I asked him how old he is and he showed me with his thumb and pointer finger that he is two! Great job!

Just a couple of pictures of our birthday boy...the big 02! Of course, our little family is celebrating his birthday today with some family time, cupcakes, and cards/presents (we'll see if the weather permits us to play outside). Mommy still has to finish preparations for tomorrow's extended family birthday celebration and decorate the cake. However, Daddy worked hard all week to finish Sunday's sermon so that he could take today off. Thanks Daddy!

Christian's family will be coming over tomorrow to help us celebrate, so I will have more pictures (maybe even a video or two) to add after tomorrow. Tomorrow's plans include letting the cousins decorate cupcakes, eating cake, opening cards/presents, and lots and lots and lots of playing. (Again, hopefully we'll be able to get outside.) We're looking forward to spending some time with Christian's family again.

To our 2 year old: We are so thankful God blessed our lives with you. Each day brings new joys and new adventures. You are helping teach us A LOT about parenting (and we still have much, much, much, much more to learn). We know you'll be a great big brother (as soon as your little brother decides to join us) and you are such a great helper to Mommy and Daddy! We love you and are so proud of you! Thanks for being our son and we pray you have a wonderfully blessed 2nd birthday! Love, Mommy and Daddy

Well, I need to get to tomorrow's food and cake preparations. Have a great day in the Lord!
