Collin is TWO!!!! Which means it's time to party!
They make a cake in one of the episodes, so I attempted to mimic that cake for Collin and put a fondant Dog on top.
We also enjoyed some yummy edible crayons (pretzels dipped in chocolate) that Benjamin helped me make.
We were blessed with lots of wonderful family and friends to celebrate Collin with. I had to take a picture when I looked out and saw some of the kids at one of the big tables and adults sitting at the kiddie ones...
Of course there were presents! Collin did really well opening all of them....
Listening to his monkey card...
He loved this monkey that my sister got him. She took little baby shirts and put pictures of Collin on them with monkey ears. It was beyond adorable!! The poor guy ended up being sick that evening (and all of the rest of the week) and he cuddled his new monkey all night long as he struggled to sleep.
The airplane lover ended up getting three more airplanes!
After presents it was time to sing to the birthday boy!
We practiced blowing out a candle that week and he was really excited to do it for real and did a great job!
We had a lot of happy little cake eaters!
Our sweet birthday boy!!
Look at that adorable chocolate face!
He is such a fun boy with so much personality. He loves, loves, loves to sing! He sings all day everyday and loves trying to make you laugh by changing some of the words. He can count to almost 20, is a really good eater, can now say all the sounds in Benjamin (not an easy task), loves to mimic his siblings, gets so excited to see airplanes and then sad to tell them goodbye, has the cutest run I've ever seen, and is just about as silly as a newly turned 2 year old can be! We love this silly monkey!
I think his favorite part of the birthday party was the crayon pretzels......he LOVED them!
Swinging with his pretzel....
After the fun party was over, everyone enjoyed some pre-bedtime play with all the new toys!
