So hard to believe our sweet baby boy turned TWO! We had the best time celebrating with family and a few of his little buddies as well. We kept asking him the week leading up to his birthday, "how old are you?!" and he's say "two!" and proudly hold out his hand, all five fingers spread out. The sweetest thing!
We celebrated the Birthday Boy with a pizza party at the babysitter's house. We had Pizza Hut delivered to the house the Friday before. We got off work early and took the kids Funfetti cupcakes with sprinkles I made the night before, balloons, and juice boxes. Not to self, when bringing balloons to a kid's party, make sure there are enough for every kid to have at least one! Luckily, I brought extras and frantically blew up a few to keep the whining under control! I thought about making little goody bags for the kids, but decided to keep it a little more simple. Xavier had a blast! And, given the amount of work and energy we put into the 1st birthday party, I wasn't ready to have another big party just yet! I think having it at the babysitter's worked out great for everyone.
After the kids party, we took Xavier to the festival in our town so he could play on the playground and, for the first time, experience jumping in a bounce house.
My family threw Xavier a little party at their house. We grilled out, picked pumpkins from the garden, opened presents, and ate cake, ice cream, and went out for frozen custard, all in one day! Xavier loved all of his presents! He's at the age where he gets really excited to see what's underneath the wrapping paper and it's so entertaining to watch! Some highlights included a remote-controlled car, a kaleidoscope, hand puppets, and stickers.
I may have teared up a little singing Happy Birthday, he was just too sweet looking at his birthday candles and blowing them out!
