I can't believe it has been 8 years since a beautiful little 6lb; 13oz baby boy joined our family! Time goes by WAY too fast! I remember being so scared when the nurses whisk him away from us in the delivery room and then there were all sorts of crazy jibber-jabber going on. I knew something was wrong. It wasn't long till the doctor informed us that our little man was having a hard time breathing and that needed to be transferred to a children's hospital - while I stayed put.
It was a rough start for this handsome young man, but that didn’t last long. Within no time started growing and developing just like the other kids. I am now proud to say that I am the mother of one of the sweetest boys with a tender heart; he has a love for life and family. He TRIES to be the comedian of the family, but he has a couple of rivals in this area - come to think of it, maybe this is just a boy trait. He loves his Momma. He is very dependable, and always tries to do his best. If I ever need anything done I know I can count on Boy 2. He is one of the smartest kids I know. He is my favorite Boy 2. ;o)
As many of you know when your birthday rolls around in our house you get to pick what you want for breakfast. Boy 2 picked Silver Dollar Pancakes, crispy bacon, an egg cooked over medium and Crystal Light Fruit Punch...really. He picked Crystal Light Fruit Punch OVER the chocolate milk I had bought special just for him. Go figure.
After breakfast we opened gifts!
Not long after that it was party time! Boy 2 had a 'sports themed' birthday party!
Yeah, I made that.
As guest were arriving a balloon war broke out!
The kids made their own 'dogs'.
After the kids filled their belly's we headed out to play a few games. The first game was 'PIG', you know the basketball game - followed by golfing (in grass, which was VERY hard), baseball pitch, soccer score, hula hooping and more....
Group shot!
Boy 2 not too sure about his 'sparlking' cake.
A birthday party at our house is not complete with a piñata!
Happy Birthday sweet boy! I love you more!
