Alex turns TWO!!!

My little man turned two on May 19th.  It is so hard to believe that it has been two years since he has been with us.  It has for sure felt like he was always here.  He is such a wonderful addition to our family.  Having a boy has really made a huge difference in our family.  He has taught us so many things, and has really blessed us with he awesome personality.  Yeah, I love him!!  Right now, his favorite things are trucks, tractors, trains, balls and teasing Kelly.  Not particularly in that order, it depend on the day!!  He is quite the little talker too.  He has had to do that because of his sisters.  He needs to keep up with them.  One thing that blew me away that he did a few weeks ago was count to TEN!!!  WHAT!?!?!  I think it is because I count a lot when the girls are doing something they are supposed to do, I mean A LOT!!!!  So I am thinking that is where he learned it from.  He is funny, handsome and super smart.  He LOVES to be outside at all times.  One thing we are working on while playing outside is him throwing dirt at his sisters, which he loves because they squeal when he  does it, and he  throws rocks.  Yeah, he is all boy!!  Well my little man, Happy birthday.  We sure do love you!!!

We had two birthday celebrations for him.  One on his birthday.  I made cupcakes and his favorite dinner, chicken enchiladas.  He loved when we sang to him and also blowing out his candles.

Then on the 22nd we had a family celebration with both of our families coming over for a BBQ lunch and cake and ice cream.  Plus, gifts.  I think that Kelly loved the gifts way more then Alex.  She was so excited for him, she really wanted to open all his gifts so she could show him everything.  He got lots of clothes and shoes, plus a fun train book, a spiderman dress up outfit (don’t know why he needed that, see previous posts about his dress up options here), a cool bike, a new tractor, a talking saw, and a new dinosaur flashlight that talks.  Yeah, all boys things and NO BARBIES, YEAH!!!!
