Peter turned 2 and we of course were so excited to celebrate that we spread the festivities out over a few days to make sure and include anyone who wanted to join in with us! :) On Sunday Peter woke up to balloons and streamers everywhere, he was so excited he ran into the living room exclaiming " "Balloons, look at that!" It was a bit of a challenge tearing him away to eat breakfast and to go to Church but with some fabulous parenting skills of bribery (he got to hold one on the way to church) we were successful. My parents and sisters came over for a dinner of Coconut Chicken Curry (one of Peter's favorite meals) opening of presents and of course cake and ice cream.
A few days later we had Peter's friends from the neighborhood and from Church come over and play in the sprinkler, paint, eat and anything else that they could think of to make a complete mess of themselves! If Peter's nap later that afternoon was any indication he had a great time, I hope everyone else did too!
It is hard to believe that just two short years ago this little man entered our lives and how dull and empty it would seem without him. I am so grateful to get to experience the world through his eyes, it helps me remember what is most important in life-to laugh, to love and to learn!
Some of Peter's favorite things at 2 years of age:
books
balls
food
his daddy
his brother
his mommy
his teddy bear
the swings at the park

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BIG BOY!

So fun! That cake looks great and you are going to have to post the recipe for the Coconut Curry Chicken. What a cute boy you have there! Loved seeing all the pictures!
Ditto to what Heather said. Your cookie monster cake looks very cute and I love the picture of Peter with frosting all around his mouth. What a cute boy. And do post your recipe.
