The other monumental even from last week was my baby's birthday!!! Brayden is now 2! Even though we were without electricity most of the day he still had a fabulous day! He played with his friends all morning.
He was so tired when he came in for lunch that he fell asleep at the table.
After his nap, he played with his friends more. The sweetest thing happened that day. Our neighbors from across the street brought over a Hostess cupcake with two candles in it and sang to him. He was so happy! This small gesture was really touching because they didn't have to but they wanted to make sure he got to celebrate his birthday since the original plans were ruined. Never mind the scarf on his head. It was totally his idea. I think it's cute in a Pirates of the Caribbean kinda way.
His friends brought over a gift for him too. He's sitting on it.
That evening we went to Applebee's for dinner. It was probably the worst meal ever because they didn't have much there. But, Dwayne was happy because he watched a little TV.
He also got some cool big boy toys from his mommy and daddy. He has a NBA kiddie basketball goal, a hot wheels race car track with extra cars, and a baseball and bat. He is such a boy! Oh yeah, daddy purchased a cake for him but didn't think about getting candles so we have a big candle off to the side for him to blow out. Bootleg!!!
I have to end this post with a few pictures of him over the last two years.
He used to hate bathtime with a passion. Now, you can't get him out of the tub.
