Dos

Hard to believe another year has passed in this parenthood journey. It seems like just yesterday we were taking this little guy home. I feel so lucky to have a happy (normally)and healthy son. He makes me laugh every.single.day, and continues to amaze me as his little brain keeps developing. He is a super-soaker-sponge that absorbs everything. I learned this the hard way the other day when I dropped something and muttered under my breath, "Oh crap." Preston promptly said, "OH CWAP! OH CWAP! OH CRAP!"

Crap.

I'm a good mom.

On to the birthday celebration...

This picture is from last night when all party prep was ready to go. These are worm balloons. Clint thought they looked like something else, but we decided to let them come to the party anyway. Party favors (educational, of course). Chalkboards that help teach measurement, left/right, decimals, and writing.

Attempt at the yearly photo...it took a lot of takes. This one seemed appropriate -the first 2 years are a blur because they have gone SO fast! Typical- trying to bolt out of the chair. This is his mischievous face.His pre-party angel face.You want ME to share CAKE? Mmmmmm...cake. He ate it all and promptly said," MO! MO!" If only cake could count as a vegetable...His top 2 presents from the day. NEW Quack Quack shoes and Elmo. (This will probably change tomorrow.) He loves the duck slippers so much that he wanted to wear them in the bath tonight and HAD to put them "Back ON!" as soon as he got out. Message from Sam. Click this photo to see all pics from today.
And the 7 minute movie from the day. Long, I know. But there is a great part towards the end where Sam took some footage for me. His commentary about family is pretty priceless.



Here's to many more celebrations ahead!
