The big 2 year old! |
We celebrated Tytus' birthday with just the four of us last weekend. Ian and the birthday boy left early in their pj's to get some donuts. We ate them at home and started to open some presents before Witten got up. Over the last month or so I have been talking to Tytus about his birthday and what it meant to be turning two. I didn't really bring up presents at all, but I found that I didn't really need to. Every time we talked about his birthday he would say "Green truck!". Needless to say that it was really simply to pick out his gift this year.....and he loved it! He also got some little men to put in the truck and a tee ball set to play with outside this summer.

Daddy got his these cool Green Lantern and Superman Little People to go in his truck |

It didn't take long for the truck to make it into the sandbox. |
The week before his birthday we had some crazy winds blow down both sides of our fence. It was tough to let Mia go out to use the bathroom because she would go right over to the neighbors' yards to explore and try to get out of any holes they may have. So, Ian and one of our neighbors spent almost the entire day on Saturday taking the old fence posts out, buying new supplies, pouring concrete for the new posts, and reinforcing the sections of fence that had fallen. It actually made for a perfect day for Tytus because he got to spend all day outside with daddy and lots of tools. Doesn't get much better than that!

Right after the fence fell....and there were more sections down on the other side of our yard. |

The guys working! |
We had some pizza out on the deck for lunch and then after naps we sang happy birthday and ate some cake. I found a cool recipe for a truck cake and thought it would be fun to give it a shot. It turned out pretty good, and he loved eating it! Now he thinks every birthday cake is a "truck cake".
To end the birthday celebration we went to check out the kite festival in Austin on Sunday. We met Aunt Lindsay, Oliver, and Aiden there and had so much fun watching all the kites and enjoyed spending some more time outside. It made for a really fun weekend to celebrate our two year old. We can't believe it's already been two years!

Eating some peas for a snack...yum! |

The kites filled the sky |

Witten was also there, but I think he was napping on his blanket at this point. |
