'Mom, I'm tryin' to open some presents here...please stop with all the pictures!'
New toys!! Yea!
This is the first birthday cake that I have not made for my kids. The guilt was a little overwhelming at first but the ease of planning the party without having to worry about the cake was wonderful! I plan on ordering them from now on. There is a lady locally that makes these wonderful cakes for only $15! I could not pass that up.
As we were singing to Gage, he decided to dip into the frosting!
Gage couldn't consume his cake and ice cream fast enough!
We bought this really fun water slide last year and pulled it out today for the first time this year. It was 90 degrees today so it was perfect for some water fun. Gage got right in there with the big kids and loved every minute of it! (Michelle F., I hope the summer photos aren't depressing for you. I remember when you posted summer photos when we were freezing here in SD and I about cried thinking this weather would NEVER come!)
Ahhhh, there's nothing like falling into a pool of freezing cold water!
Gage was so wiped out that he actually fell asleep standing up!
Turning 2 is exhausting!

the picture of you smiling at him dipping into the frosting...you look more beautiful than ever! maybe it's just that i haven't seen you in TO DANG LONG...but wow, you are a knock-out. motherhood has done good things to you.
the sleeping photos-priceless! how fitting...there are days i could fall asleep standing up too. he looks so done in.
what a great family celebration. i hear you on the cake thing. i haven't done the purchased route but part of me wonders why not? does it mean we're less of a mom if we admit we just don't have the time or amazing talent in this area...i'm sure many boughten cakes are in our future.
What a fun day! Who knew that turning 2 was so exhausting?!?!
My kids used to love Elmo...glad to see that he is still around.
The water slide looks like a fun time for the kids.
The picture of him sleeping is priceless..what a sweetie!
What fun! That waterslide looks wonderful! That is the thing I miss about the country, room for all the fun stuff! We should get together for supper soon!
I want to come over and use that slide! :-D
What a fun birthday party. BTW, I usually get Alex's b-day cake from the bakery.
Happy 2nd birthday Gage. Looks like you had a great day!!
Precious sleeping picture. Hang on to that one!
Great pictures! Looks like he had a ball turning two!
Happy Birthday, Gage!
The slide really looks like fun--I've looked at those in the store and wondered how cool they really are!
awesome bd!! ya.. I too caved on the cake.. I used to make my own too... but it's too much stress and work to jam in! I now BUY their cakes!! what a stress reliever! I love the one of Gage asleep standing.. I'm sure there are days that I could do the same...
it's great when they fall asleep so nicely after such a busy day!!!
