Our ham of a two year old...this is one of my favorite recent photos...
Bowen has blessed our lives with his beautiful, happy and bright personality. At 2 his favorite things are stuffed animals (anything that is soft and cuddly, he loves to cuddle) trains and cars. He is pretty content to sit by himself and play. He loves reading books and can sit for a loooong time and look at books. His favorite book is Frank, the Monster that Wanted to Dance. We checked it out from the library and he reads it every day and screams when we have to return it, then the next time we check it out again! He is quite sassy and babbles all the time but doesn't have many sensible words. Our favorites that he says are plane, car, Tinsy (Kynzee) and Wook (Luke). His smile is still my favorite and his giggles are contagious!
He started his day with birthday pancakes ofcourse...
After lunch we opened Mom and Dad's presents...
MaKynzee guarded them quite nicely. Do you love my wrapping job?
Bowen plays with MaKynzee's princess shopping cart ALL the time...so we got him his own little wagon!
We got him a new soft and cuddly animal...the first elephant in our zoo!
Then we re-gifted the car garage that Lukas grew out of...He would not stop playing!
After dinner we opened cards and more presents...
If only he knew how exciting 5 dollars really is...
Then we had cake...most of you know about me and my cakes and how I love to make my kids birthday cakes, well this year I found this cool cake on pinterest...
You split up the cake batter and add food coloring...
You pour them in one by one and bake!
I did a swirly fun colorful top and added a hint of Halloween with the candy corn...
I think he liked it..especially the colored worms around the edges..yummy! mmmmmm he says!
We didn't realize we didn't do a candle last year until we lit the candle and he nearly jumped out of his chair...poor kid was scared to death so mommy blew out the candle for him...
And this is the inside of the cake. It was pretty cool and I think Bowen liked all the colors!
We had a wonderful day celebrating Bowen and his two years. He adds so much joy and brought so much happiness when we needed it most.
You are a treasure and we love you so much. Happy Birthday Baby Boy!
