Adam's 2nd Birthday Party!

Getting ready for Adam's party, I wasn't anxious like I have been before most events or happenings in recent years. But I had planned it for a while, keeping things simple and informal. Appetizers and pizza, ice cream and cake. I wanted to do it on his actual birthday versus the next day Saturday because it always adds a special element to celebrate on an actual birthday. Tammy came early to help me pull things together, running to Price Chopper for a few things, including some latex green helium balloons to go with the ones I had put up the night before. They were there when he woke up from his nap and he gathered them all up and brought them in to show me. I thought it was so cute. Tammy made a very cute birthday sign...I had asked her to make one, but thought it's be be a sign. I LOVED what she did, even cutting out little paw prints and modge podge-ing them! Adam didn't choose when he asked, so we put all his favorite things on the cake :) I set up the appetizers and Tammy picked up the pizza...which Adam went right for. He ate it with love...and was not interested in eating his cake! Adam made his own WII remote and was busy attacking Devin with it! Adam was SO proud when we sang Happy Birthday to him! When he got his cake, he tossed it at Devin...he just thought he had a big playmate!! So Daddy fed the cake to Abbey who LOVED it. I like this picture of Uncle Chuck and Aunt Missie. Bobby admiring Tammy...his long-time hobby. Adam LOVED this Thomas card from Melissa that moved when you pulled a tag. Holly and Ron... Tammy took a lot of these photos...kind of acting like a photographer for the event!!!! Adam's second birthday was nice....I missed my father and father-in-law being a part and a few of my friends who have shared so much with me. All of Todd's local brothers stopped in, which was nice and Colin was in town and brought his new girlfriend. Adam was happy and enjoyed the day and the attention. His favorite parts where playing with people and being sang to, eating pizza and playing with his new toys. It was a wonderful birthday for my little boy...I was excited for him the night before like I used to get before my birthday as a kid. My, how things change.
