Go, go, go!

Our little guy is on the go non-stop. He is crazy about cars, trucks, motorcycles, police cars, fire trucks...you get the picture. It was only appropriate to have a "car-theme" birthday. Here's how it went down:

The cake:

"Stoplight" Jello
Bulldozer ride-on. Awesome!
Motorcycle-oh, yeah!
Bike with handy steering for the grown-up. Nice.
He also got 2 great books with lots of pictures in them to keep building that vocabulary. We read them before nap and bedtime EVERY day. I now know the difference between an excavator and a skid steer and a bulldozer. Love it! It was a fun day. We missed our dear family that couldn't share the day, but want you all to know we love you.

Birthday Boy

A big happy birthday to our handsome son.

It never ceases to amaze me how one can love another so completely and then grow in that love more and more every day, every year for a lifetime. Again I find myself the giver and the recipient of that kind of love.

A car-theme birthday party is coming on Saturday. Today there were kisses, birthday candles, singing and some small gifts before the big fun on Saturday. I'm pretty sure he said more new words today than ever before. I'm looking forward to this year with him.
