I Two! I Two!

We had a fabulous birthday celebration for Troy. Since his b’day is 4 days before mine, we combined a few things into one. I have to admit that he had cupcakes almost every day of the week. It has to be a record – and I realized he was beginning to think that was the norm!

Decorating cupcakes was a huge hit. He stood still, watched and waited in anticipation. He was excited to be able to help put sprinkles on the cupcakes. Little did I know that he already knew how to blow out the candles. I have to admit I was impressed by his patience – especially for a two year old! He’s quite proud of the fact that he can hold up two fingers on his own and will yell “I two, I two!”

Here he is being very sweet.

SO excited to blow out his candles (I had to light them twice so we could get him on the video camera).

So glad I made this banner. It was fun to use again and I plan on using it for many years to come! Every letter is appliqued on and cut out separately. It took me HOURS to get it right.

We had a very small birthday get together. He’s here with one of his girl friends jumping on his trampoline – they had a blast!

In his two year old outfit (reversible pants). Love ‘em!

This little dude is a yardstick – exactly 36 inches tall, weighs 32 1/2 pounds which puts him in the 90th percentile for height and weight. Frankly I was surprised because he doesn’t seem that big to me. He’s talking up –a-storm! He still refers to his brother as “dudis” and has trouble pronouncing words with “f”. Most things usually sound like a “p”. Piretruck, piderman (spiderman), etc. One day he said, “Mommie, help me find my piderman pwees”. I was very surprised and of course, dropped what I was doing to help him. He routinely says “I wub you” and will repeat ANYTHING we ask him to say.

I love this little boy to death – he has been such a joy!
