vrooom.... already 2!

Early to rise, our birthday boy woke up bashful as I sang "happy birthday" to him. We unveiled his gift and he let out a big "wo-----ow" from his multiplying vocabulary - and then zoomed his cars and trains across the tracks until it was time for him to go get his haircut. Planning a special occasion amidst busy schedules was a daunting task - but in a day, we were able to pull it together and call upon family and friends to come help us celebrate...












We struck gold with a carnival theme... making favors out of old fashioned favorites like cotton candy and fun trinkets. We had ice-cream cake and spent the afternoon showering the front lawn with our laughter - playing games, bouncing, running, and swinging at a flying pinata...























As the evening settled in, so did the kids. Humzah, Sophia and Ava headed indoors for bathtime - but not Noah. He refused to go in before the sun fell off the horizon, and instead, rolled on the lawn all by himself, with his new cars gripped under his palms - soaking his day in - and having the time of his life... turning 2!
