Ben is TWO!!!!

Happy Happy Birthday to my little Benjamin!!!  Hard to believe that 2 years ago you came into the world.  What a great 2 years it has been - looking forward to seeing what the next year brings!  We've had a great time celebrating your birthday - Grandma, Papa, & Aunt Ashley were here this past weekend...Then your actual birthday on Monday...and then you got to celebrate with friends (and a 60+ degree day) at the playground on Tuesday!

Here's a look back on your actual Birthday through pictures -

You enjoyed some cake batter beaters bright an early in the morning with Jim!!!

 I think you really liked it!!!  (I was baking cupcakes for your playground playdate!)

We then spent the morning at a new playground (Potomac Yard Park) and you and Jim had a great time there!!!  It was a little chiller than we thought - glad I brought your heavier jackets - but the cold never seems to slow you guys down!

Here you are happy to be 2!!!  And enjoying lunch.

After naptime, we went outside to play - it was warmer now that the sun was out!  You had fun driving your new pick-up truck.

I was sure to make you a dinner that you'd eat and enjoy (chicken nuggets & French fries) - then we sang Happy Birthday to you!!! (You blew out the candles as soon as I set the cupcake down!)

 Enjoying your cupcake!  You ate the frosting off, and then a bite or 2 of the cake...

And then you ended your birthday opening gifts - Jim was very excited to see that you got a new Grader!

I have a couple more birthday posts to do for you - including your weekend with grandma, papa, & Aunt Ashley...as well as a 'What you're up to post...'  You have your 2 year check-up on Tuesday, so I'll be sure to report back on your stats then as well!
