2 years old!

We had a fantastic day celebrating William's birthday. I had to work the night before his birthday and slept most of the day. But that evening we let him open one present, his tricycle! It was love at first sight. He played with it until the sun went down. And when it was time for him to go inside, he was very upset and kept crying for his bike. On the day after, June 30th, William woke up and the first thing he wanted to do was "go outside, my bike." William and I ate breakfast together while Sean was at school. After that we cuddled in my bed watching William's favorite show, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. We got ready for the day and as William commanded, we played on his new bike. He doesn't know how too peddle, but he just uses his feet to push himself where he wants to go. Sean eventually got home and went to meet up with my cousin, Julie, at the Museum of Natural Curiosity. Sean put the new bike in the car to take with us to my moms and William went ballistic, "my bike! My bike!!!" He eventually calmed down after we told him he could ride it at grandma's house. 

When we got to the museum, William was mesmerized. We immediately went and played on the jungle gym where there was literally 3 stories of a play fortress. Funny thing to note, there was a toddler area and he was not impressed. He went straight to the big kid's play fortress. William climbed all around it. He found a slide that he love and I even managed to carry him up 2 flights of a rope course (16 weeks pregnant and he is 30+ pounds)! He enjoyed driving the small train and feeding the block monster. We then went to the cool water works area where William splashed and played until he was soaked and content. Sean had fun building the water ducts with William. At the end we took him to the ark where there was a swimming place and William didn't hesitate to jump right in the cold water. He screamed and cried when we had to leave. 

After the museum we went to my moms and had a BBQ. We gave her a cute little card announcing that she will be having a new granddaughter. We made a cool tractor cake for William. He loved it so much. After he blew out the candles, he only wanted to play with his tractors from the cake. He would not eat cake, and he would not open gifts. We finally forced him to open more presents where he found more cars and Legos etc. He was very happy. When we got home, all he wanted was to play with his tractors. It took us quite a while to get him in the bath and ready for bed. We read him his new book and he went to sleep with his tractors. I love him so much. It is so crazy that he is 2. My life wouldn't be complete without him. Happy birthday my sweet, sweet son, William. I love you always and forever.
