Sam second birthday party

We had your birthday party here on Sunday from 2 to 4 and all the neighbors came and Molly and Reynolds and mckenlry and Kinlee. You all had so much fun and you even went into the backyard and played after we decorated pumpkins and opened your presents. I had so much fun planning your party and I try to really focus a lot on the little details. I am really proud of how it turned out and I'm so glad you had a good time!  

Singing songs

You have been really trying to sing along to certain songs so I'm wondering if they sing them at your school. You seem to know wheels on the bus and all the different animals so when I'm singing it you will say moo or meow or ruff. When I sing twinkle twinkle Little star you know star and other words. Tonight you padded at your big boy bed for me to come sit down so we lay there and saying and I recorded it and it is so cute!  

Hey bring so much joy to my heart when I see you singing has it so precious and you look adorable!!  I signed up for guitar lessons and singing lesson so I can get better at those two hobbies and hopefully inspire you when you are older. 

Daycare- go mom

Daddy said the best couple times he has taken you to daycare he seemed happy to be there and don't cry. When I took you on Monday you cried. The teacher says you always stop after a couple of minutes.  This morning we got there and had breakfast and then Kinley got there soon after so you sat with her at the table. She was ready to go to the classroom so you followed her and were so happy.  The lady that works at the front was vacuuming and you and Kinley were both playing with her and laughing at the vacuum. You follow Kinley right into the classroom and saw that the class was working on putting dots on paper and you love that is what the teacher said. You sit right down and grabbed a pink marker and I lean down next to you and you told me to go.  I was proud of you because you were so independent and we're happy to be there. I went and put your bag away and then when I came back he told me to sit. I turned around and looked and said bye-bye and you said bye-bye to me and went back to your art project!

Colors

Last night I was reading you a story book and you pointed out the different colors of the balloons on the page which is the first time you've said all good I'm at one time

Your 2nd birthday!

Two years ago today you were born. Oh how you have made our lives complete and made us so happy! You are more than we ever could have imagined!  

This morning I was not at home because I had to come out of town for work but daddy called me and we FaceTimed you in your crib to sing happy birthday. We had to wake you up so I think you were a little cranky daddy said on the way to school. I made you cupcakes and they are going to celebrate with you in your class and your teacher said she talked about it yesterday and you were excited. 

I made you a little cake that we will celebrate with tonight after dinner and I hope to get home and decorate the living room with balloons and surprise you!

This Sunday we are having your birthday party but since today is your true birthday it will be fun to celebrate as a family. 

Painting

We had a painter come yesterday and they finished painting our kitchen cabinets, painted the room that you will use next and also painted the laundry room.  They painted our garage a neutral color that used to be cranberry and then they stained and sealed our deck. When we picked you up from daycare we ate dinner in the basement and then I stay down here so I didn't have to breathe the fumes   It's 430 in the morning and I am awake writing on this and I do have a little headache I'm sure due to the paint.  I keep thinking about your birthday party and things I need to do so I might get up and go make some cupcakes a while. These are photos of you in the basement watching my computer. 

Eating your puffins!

This was Monday morning before we took you to daycare and I was putting on your socks and shoes and tickling your feet!  You looked so adorable!

Mommy

Southern Belle Farms

This past weekend we went to a birthday party for a little girl that was born a couple weeks before you and then we went to a farm in McDonough. They had pumpkins and a tractor ride and other games and it was your first experience in a bouncy house and you got to see lots of farm animals!  You love the animals!

Announcing your baby brother

We posted a photo of you the other day with a Cape on that says big brother and that is how everyone on Facebook knows we are having another child. All of our friends and family have known we are expecting but this made it more official to people we don't speak with every day. 

Today we had our 20 week ultrasound and got to see your brother growing inside my belly.
