The toddler is now a two-year old boy. His first birthday party for his second birthday celebration was at home. Big sister made a cool hat for him to wear.
We had some cousins over which meant more presents to open! Unfortunately, our toddler's skills leave a bit to be desired.
The dessert plan was cupcakes...decorate your own cupcakes! The birthday boy has fewer cake decorating skills than present opening skills, so he graciously allowed others to decorate his.
You can see a monster theme. Mostly that was chosen because eyeballs were on sale at the store. And let's be honest, who can resist a sale on eyeballs? I thought the blackberry noses were a nice touch, as were the fruit roll-up tongues. We had a very creative monster-crafting crew on board. Watch out Doctor Frankenstein!
Our boy has been practicing blowing out candles. He did quite well at this.
After dessert, we went to the basement for a little dance party inspired by Just Dance Kids on the Xbox. It was a big hit.
We went to visit Grandmama to celebrate along with Uncle Ed, who also has an August birthday.
We did some relaxing and playing before we had dinner. We had more cupcakes after dinner!
A special joy was finding an extra present to open!
