yay for birthdays!

Fun part about turning 2 years old;
1. presents (which he can actually open mostly by himself!)
2. cake (which he now doesn't hesitate to devour)
3. spending the day with family and friends (who are all there to give him attention)
4. getting to pick what you wear (even if it doesn't match and makes mommy nuts!)


Not so fun part about turning 2 years old;

1. doctor's visits (and having to get 2 shots)

2. the tantrums get 2x stronger!

Chase had a "Cars" themed birthday this year. Most everything he got was Cars related and even his cupcakes had "Cars" wrappers. He was very excited when he saw his gifts wrapped in "Cars" wrapping paper and then the fun got that much better when he realized that wasn't the best part!

He's got the whole cake-eating thing down this year! It didn't take him long to dig right in!

All week I've been working with him and finally on his birthday it all came together - When we ask him how old he is (holding up 2 fingers) he'll say, "2"!

At 2 years old some of my favorite things he does:

When you ask him "Where's Superman?" or "Who's Superman?" he points to himself and says, "ME!"

He admits to having a "stinky" diaper.

He says, "I love you" back to us.

Whenever he's eating something he really likes he keeps saying, "Mmmm! Mmmmm!" over and over!

He talks/sings along with some of his favorite shows.
