Happy Birthday Ian!


So last week was Ian's Birthday! He turned 2! For the last month he was constantly telling us "Ian's birthday comin up" so we were excited it was finally here!


When I asked him what he wanted for his birthday he always said, green truck. So we made him a green truck cake! We have seen the "cake boss" on TV and he makes the coolest cakes, so we thought we'd give it a try! Although it wasn't perfect we thought it turned out pretty good!









Ian's morning consisted of watching a few cartoons (Mickey Mouse Clubhouse to be exact), eating rice krispies for breakfast (he does that every day!) and he just couldn't stand those presents sitting there so we let him open one...it was a movie from Grandma... of course we had to watch it (well the first 10 minutes of it at least).





















Then his friends started coming! We had a little party and it was really fun! In the picture with his friends starting on the left is Rebecca, Luke, Ian and Hailey! It was so cute!












Ian got a lot of fun presents, more than he needed!!! He got a bike, a bat and ball, a puzzle, a green truck, a slinky, a couple movies and a webcam for the computer! =)


After his friends left we took a nap! He was ready for that! Then when we all woke up Ian opened his present from Miranda... another green truck! He loved it of course. For the next couple of days he had to have both his green trucks, the motorcycle off his puzzle and his bike with him at all times! It was so funny, he would try to ride his bike and hold all his toys at the same time... it didn't work!


The rest of the day was spent swimming and then watching "move it move it" (madagascar 2)! It was a fun day and I think he had a good time!



Happy Birthday Ian, I love you!
I can't believe my baby is 2 already!
