Two years old already!?!

Yesterday our little fella turned 2 years old. That's right. TWO! I could go on and on about how much this little devil makes us want to pull out our hair, but I won't...Not on his "special" day. :) Instead, I will just say how much we have loved having Aidan in our home (for better or worse)! He is picking up some hilarious personality traits and quite a vocabulary. He says quite a few things, but the best thing is that he says "thank you" for EVERYTHING you give him or do for him. He is very polite. He LOVES going to Nursery and now begs through Sacrament to go to Nursery. He gives great kisses and hugs and is generally a happy fella until someone gets in his personal bubble. Which, at times can be the size of a room! For his birthday, he just wanted to blow out candles over and over. It was a pretty typical 2 year birthday party for our house!


I made up this Elmo cake with the assistance from my friend Rhonda. She gave me the idea for Oreo eyes and for the rainbow cake inside. (Thanks Rhonda!)
Isn't the inside of the cake amazing? I love how bright it is and it tasted good too, so that was the best part!!


Cambree and Brinlee drew pictures of Elmo (and SpongeBob) for Aidan's birthday. Brinlee made him a book about Elmo having a birthday party and it was so cute!! (She is really good at making books. )
Aidan's grandma Judy and his friends the Ashton's each gave him a Tonka toy. Which, matches his Tonka truck from Christmas and so now he has quite the work equipment to play with. And he is loving them!
