Jordan's 2nd Birthday

This took me a few days to get around to writing since I have actually found myself busy lately but I wanted to take the time to write about Jordan's birthday before it slips too far away. My baby turned 2 on Sunday, I can't even believe it. Time just continues to go by faster and faster. We had a great day, started by singing to him when he woke up which he was not so thrilled about. I made pancakes for breakfast because that is his favorite and then we went to church. After his nap it was time for his party which went really well. He was great at opening his presents and was so gracious in sharing with all the other kids, especially his brother who was convinced it was his birthday again and that all the gifts were for him. His big gift was a remote control dinosaur that provided many laughs as he traded off between squealing while running away or roaring back at the dinosaur. I was amazed at how great he did with his cupcake. He blew the candles out on the first shot! All in all it was a good day and we had so much fun celebrating 2 years with our little man. Our family just wouldn't be the same with out him, he brings his own unique personality into the mix and keeps things interesting to say the least. We love you Jordan!

Getting ready for a party!

Jordan is going to be 2 in a little over 2 weeks which means we are busy preparing for his party. Since we only have family come I try to make it special by hand-making invitations for the boys' birthdays. Right now he is really into Curious George so that's the theme. I just finished up the invitations last night and am pretty pleased with how they came out. We also got the shopping done yesterday. All the party supplies are bought as well as his gifts. They had a display with the dinosaur pictured above at Toys R' Us and as soon as Jeremy started playing with it, I knew it was going to be "THE" gift. We got him a few smaller things to go with it and so we are done with that part! Now on to the food planning...
