We can' believe it's true....our little man has turned TWO!!



Here is a video of us singing happy birthday to Davis.  The first time we sang to him after everyone sang to him he screamed "again".  So we all sang again and we got it on video the second time around.  That is the first time I have sang happy birthday twice.

Time just goes by so fast....too fast for me!  Lance and I are just LOVING this age.  Davis is so much fun right now.  Overall, he is just a healthy, sweet, caring, and happy child and to us that is most important.  He feels loved and loves to love on others and we can't not ask for anything more than that.  We truly cannot imagine our life without this little guy. 

For his birthday we decided to scale back this year and just do a party with our immediate family and a couple of family friends that are considered family.  I started to feel bad about not doing a kid party, but quickly was reminded by Lance that Davis would not remember or care and I know he was right, but I still felt bad.  But, I no logner felt bad after his party.  He was the happiest I think I have EVER seen him.  All atention was on him and he was so excited to have everyone that meant something to him there.  He was so wound up by the end of the night, we could not stop laughing. 






He was so excited about opening his gifts!  We wanted to wait until everyone was there and he was pacing around trying to pull his presents off the kitchen counter!  I didn't even know he really knew what presents were.....but he obviously did!  Aunt Kelley and Uncle Casey won the best gift award again....last year they got him his first lawn mower and this year they got him the leaf blower.  We should have had him open their gift last because he was not very interested in the rest of his gifts after that.  Although he kept calling the leaf blower a vacumn for the first week, I think he is finally calling it a blower now.

We missed Aunt Anna and Uncle Justin
I am so bummed, this was our attempt at a family picture and Davis would not sit two seconds with us, as you notice we have no pictures of the 4 of us....oh well!


Katelyn celebrated in style with her birthday shirt.
My Family Traditon ~ The Birthday Dinner Plate

When it came to what kind of cake to get Davis, I had no idea what to get since he does not like Elmo or any of the other kid characters.   But he is in love iwht lawn mowers so I got as close as we could to a lawn mower with this tractor.  Kind of untraditional for a 2 year old cake, but it is what he loves right now.  :)

He LOVED us singing to him.....so much so he said, "AGAIN" after we clapped!
Notice the tractor in his cake.....he is all boy for sure!

PARTY GUESTS

Uncle Casey and Aunt Kelley
Aunt Brittany and Uncle Blake
Opa & Meme
After the party, Casey and Kelley stayed to hang out for a while.  It was fun to get to visit with them....we have been so busy lately we have not had time to hang out together.  Casey and Lance got Davis bathed and in bed and Kelley and I picked out paint colors for the house which is getting painted this week.  Doesn't Casey look like a natural?  He said he was going to take her home.........my mom let him know that he would be bringing her back pretty quickly.

Thanks everyone for making Davis' birthday extra special!
