Happy 2nd Birthday Benjamin!!!!!

We had a wonderful birthday for Benjamin! I can't believe my little guy is 2!!! Time flies when you're having fun! Sorry it took a couple days to post pictures, but Benjamin's been sick. Unfortunately, he woke up the morning of his birthday sick and has been pretty miserable the past few days. We took him to the Dr. yesterday and he seems to be doing a little better with the medicines and we were all able to finally get some sleep!

The night before his birthday we made cupcakes together and he really enjoyed eating the leftover batter!


He spent twenty minutes or so standing here, eating his cake batter and yelling Happy Birthday! (Or at least his version of how to say it!) It was quite funny!


Some of the finished cupcakes!


Dave and I got Benjamin a fish for his birthday because he loves them so much and because he already has so many presents....so we are trying to not give him too much more! He was very pleased and seems to enjoy him. So meet our newest family member, Rex!


We had a Blue's Clues birthday party because Blue is Benjamin's favorite right now. Here are some of my home-made decorations (except the banner). The little hand prints are Benjamin's hand!


Benjamin took like a 4 hour nap and woke up to a house full of people. Since he was starting to feel bad, it was a little hard to get him to become his normal happy self! He eventually, woke up and had a bunch of fun though!


We were trying to get him to smile for pictures with his Blue hat and ears on. My sister was trying and she got in front of the camera, so I couldn't resist posting this silly picture of her!


Benjamin's best friend, Maddox, came to his party and they had fun playing balloons with their hats on! Benjamin didn't share very nice with Maddox like he usually does, but he was sick and it was his birthday, so hopefully Maddox will forgive him!


Jimmy and Shawna with their little Jack who got in the party spirit too!


Benjamin giving Maddox a hug, one of the few times he was nice to Maddox during his present opening!


Benjamin having fun on his first bike that Grandma Frankie and Grandpa Jim got him!


And playing golf with Grandpa with the clubs Grandpa Warren and Grandma Susan got him!


Blowing out his candles. He did really good at it and blew them out all by himself!!!!


Enjoying his birthday cupcake. He really doesn't like his fingers getting dirty, so he ate it very delicately and it took him quite awhile to eat only about half of it! My silly little boy!


Before they went home, we got a family picture with Dave's family. Jimmy, Shawna, and Jack stayed the night before heading home and Benjamin was very tickled to have Jack staying at his house. He said baby about a million times! Hopefully, he likes having his baby sister stay in his house just as much in a few months!
