Wow, really? 2 already?! It's so hard to believe that my little Nugget is 2 years old today. 2 years ago today (2 years and about 2 hours to be exact) we welcomed our special little boy into our lives. As the days and months progressed, we came to realize just how special he is to our entire family. He has such a sweet spirit, embodies such a pure joy, and I cannot imagine life without him. I can't seem to recall, or understand, how life was before him. He's getting so big (relatively speaking; lil runt barely tops the scales at 24lbs right now, hehe) and so smart and I love it and hate it at the same time.
Birthday hijinks ensued today. He got such fun stuff, and was so excited about the most hilarious stuff. First present he got to he peeled open rather delicately...and then his eyes got so big and he let out this little exclamation of absolute joy when he saw it was a bag of fishy crackers for his very own. His great-grandma Randall couldn't get the bag open fast enough for him, and he thanked her (in his cute sign language) profusely for several seconds and on and off for the rest of the night. He was so patient when we'd stick another present in front of him to open when I could tell all he wanted to do was play with the one he'd just opened a few seconds ago. He wanted nothing to do with his cake because he noticed the Thomas the Tank Engine cake topper on it - which he quickly made off with. He was happy all night, made the rest of us laugh all night, and all around was a very busy birthday boy. Mommy and Daddy love you so much, Caden!
The Thomas cake:
1 lonely unopened present on the coffee table (rest were in the kitchen out of sight still):
And inside he discovered the best present ever, the fishy crackers:
I can open this one too, right?
Taking a break for fishy crackers:
Back at it:
A set of mini Fisher Price's Little People cars he couldn't stop playing with:
This one is SURE to have something fun inside:
Opening presents is hard! (he was making grunting 'heave-ho' noises here):
Thomas pj's!!
Bow-headed:
Cake time!
Ppfftt, forget the cake, I just want the Thomas topper:
Hypnotized...
Such a big boy!
