Happy Birthday, Graham!

"A two year old is like having a blender, only you don't have a top for it." -Jerry Seinfeld

Happy Birthday to our sweet, funny, cute, loving, happy, emotional, expressive, loud, dramatic, social, active, destructive, singing, dancing TWO year old, Graham!! We have loved every minute of knowing our sweet boy (with the possible exception of the several minutes of tantrum throwing in Target yesterday) and he has brought so much joy and laughter into our home!

We celebrated Graham's birthday with a Veggie Tales party with family on Saturday. Graham really loves Veggie Tales songs and shows so we thought he would be pretty impressed by our Bob and Larry cake, veggie bouquet, veggie face pizzas, etc. I think he was more interested in the wrapping paper and boxes than in our cute decor but of course, he is two! We had a wonderful time celebrating with family and were so glad his soon to be cousin, Hailey, was able to come. Graham got lots of new toys including an airplane, books, a big stuffed doggy, a stuffed Nemo, clothes, etc. Again, he really seemed to enjoy the wrapping paper... which worked out well for Jack, who enjoyed the airplane!

On Sunday night, Randy, Jack, and I took G to Chuck E Cheese's for the first time so that he could do something special on his "real" birthday. He seemed to be in heaven there, running around playing the games without even putting tokens in them. He was pretty good at ski ball, but Randy was the real winner, hitting a jackpot of 380 tickets on some kind of lottery game. That earned us a 10" inflatable air guitar and some fake vampire teeth so we all left happy. :)
