I AM 2!!

I TURNED TWO YEARS OLD ON MONDAY!!!!

We have done a lot of celebrating for the last couple of weeks. We celebrated Jefferson's birthday a week and a half ago with family that would be out of town. We celebrated with family on Easter since we were together, and we celebrated on his actual birthday. He made out like a bandit and he loves all of his toys and books. He really loved urwrapping the presents. It was really hard to get him to wait, if he saw a present, he was going to open it. It was pretty funny.


This is the monster that I made him. I think he is still a little iffy about it, but I figured that if he had a monster of his own that he would never be scared of the monsters under his bed. He has his very own monster to protect him. Maybe I'm jumping ahead a little, but I thought they were really cute. I made one for his cousin also.


A lot of the presents he got are for outside and I can't wait until it gets warm. Now we will have things to do outside instead of just running around. He got a tricycle from me and Jason and he loves it. We are still working on the peddling concept, but he likes to scoot as well. It should be a real fun summer.


Here he is with Papa. Papa is trying to show him how the baseball and glove work. Jefferson just loves to throw things so I am glad it is a really soft ball. I have been hit, more times than I can count, with various balls and other objects.


Jefferson's cake was decorated like a basketball and I made chocolate molds of other balls (baseball, soccer ball, football, basketball) to go around the bottom of the cake. It doesn't look fantastic due to the fact that I really wasn't feeling well when I made, but at least when he saw it he said, "Ohhh, a baaaaallllll".



We had a good time and I know Jefferson had a great time. We really appreciate all the great gifts everyone sent and gave. Thank you so much.

  2. Your basketball cake turned out great! So, did you have the basketball cake on Easter weekend or on the previous weekend when you celebrated with cousins? It does seem like Jefferson had some attention and some fun. ENJOY THE YEAR LEADING UP TO THREE! Enjoy every second before you will be sending him off to school.
