Yesterday Mikey turned 2-years-old! That time went by so quickly. James helped me make his birthday poster. It was a lot of fun for us!
Mikey and his poster. He is obsessed with balls.
Later in the morning we went to the park to play. There was a Dad there playing baseball with his son and Mikey couldn't take his eyes off them. I knew we got him the right gift! After the park we met Dad at McDonald's for a birthday lunch. The boys loved it, can't say Doug and I are big fans! Finally when Dad got home from work we had a birthday dinner, with tons of different vegetables. Then it was time to open presents. I think every present Mikey opened was his favorite. He didn't care about opening them, just playing with them. First James gave him a train whistle. Then when we finally got that pried away from him we gave him a little water bottle shaped like a soccer ball. After we finally got that away from him he opened some Pajamas from Grandma and Grandpa that are just like James' Buz and Woody. Next James forced him to open the T-ball set. Then we had to take a break from opening presents. This was by far his favorite.
Next he opened his bed tent from Grammy and Granddad, I am sure he is excited to have sleep overs with James. Finally he opened this Lightening McQueen couch. They were both really excited about this, but when James found out that it folder out into a bed he took it into his room and hid it in his bed.

Finally it was time for cake. I asked Mikey if he wanted a Soccer ball cake or an airplane cake. He told me he wanted a "Basketball, soccer ball, base ball" cake. I thought about just doing cupcakes, but decided to just go with the soccer ball cake.
He was really excited to sing the song and blow out the candles. He actually made up relight the candles several times. What a funny boy.
When it was time for bed both boys chose their Buz Lightyear pajamas. This is funny because James would never wear his. When ever we tried to get him to he would tell us "That's Mikey's" So I guess now that Mikey has his own it is ok for James to wear his. Although he only wore the pants and the shirt is from his dress up box.

Overall we had a very fun day! I love this little two year old.
Some things about Mikey:
He is obsessed with sports
He loves his older brother and wants to do everything he is doing
He loves watching movies, his favorite is Toys
He loves all fruits and vegetables, probably more than cookies
First of all, I am totally in love with him! He is so cute! Second, your whole family is adorable-so sweet how James loves Mikey. Third, I love the cake!!! Nice work. Fourth, my boys have/had those same jammies. It would have been awesome to get all the cousins together in them but Nathan has definitely grown out of his and I think Jack and Dal might be on the verge now too.
