Will's Birthday....Part 1!

You know there will be many posts about my beloved Will's second birthday...right? It's because we l-o-v-e photos around here, and well, we also really love our child. So, allow me to indulge...

Last year, I had parent teacher conferences on Will's first birthday...sadness. So, this year, I decided I would take the day off and do whatever Will wanted all day. It was such a nice day! We slept in (10:30!...this kid is just like his parents!), got cokes, had lunch, made birthday cake, had pizza and opened presents....just played all day! At the gas station (our fave is Mooch's), the clerk (who we've become quite good friends with, we're there so often!) wished Will a happy birthday. He said, "Anks!", which means thanks...with a big smile. Then she asked how old he was and he said, "TWO!" while holding up his index finger on both hands. Adorable.


When he woke up, I asked him what he'd like for his birthday breakfast....his choice? Toast, milk, cereal, and OLIVES!




We took lunch to RJ at school. It was so fun to see him teach and see his class. They sang Happy Birthday to Will, it was sweet. Will enjoyed coloring while we ate.


We needed some birthday cake goodies at the store...which led us to picking out a pumpkin. Because who can say no to a 2 year old, excited about pumpkins, on his birthday?!


HA! LOVE this picture. This was after Will's nap...he spotted his presents all wrapped on the table...and wanted them NOW! He kept saying, "Presents..." while pointing and weeping.


Will opened his card from "Nana and Bobo" (my mom and dad).


We got Will these fun Converse sneakers...he loves them. The other day someone asked him how his birthday was and he pointed down and said, "Shoes!"



And the mushy part....cannot even believe this kid is TWO. How does this happen!? We love him with all our hearts. He brings such a fun spunk to our family, and an incredible amount of love and charm. We are so very thankful for him everyday.
