Happy Birthday Big Boy!

Happy Birthday Celebration at School

A certain someone is turning 2 today!  Mommy and daddy couldn't be more proud of our little guy.  A lot has happened in the last year. 

Mommy finally stopped nursing.

Our first trip to the beach

Our big move.

Adam learned to use the potty.

Then moved into his big boy bed.

We went from a few words to sentences like, "No want Jesus!" (In the middle of a silent church.)

We can't wait to see what next year has to offer us...let the new challenges start, we're ready for them and all the fun we have in store a long with them.

The Little Things

Yesterday we went to our neighbors for a Super Bowl party.  We had such a good time meeting new people and getting to know our new neighbors.  It really was a blast.  Adam was his typical self and was the complete life of the party, flirting with all the women and winning the hearts of some.  It amazes me how he can really play up a room. 

I think the two biggest highlights of the evening for me were how proud he was to use the potty at a strangers house.  He was so proud of himself that he was running up to people he had never spoken to and yelling, yes I mean yelling, "POO! POO!" because he went poo poo in the potty.  Good thing this was a very kid friendly party, otherwise I might have been mortified. 

The other highlight was as we were saying our goodbyes for the evening to walk the few houses home, per our usual, I asked Adam to say good night to his new "friends" and to thank the host for having us.  Well upon making his way to his latest older woman fling, he gave her a huge hug.  She proceeded to ask for a kiss on the cheek because really what woman wants one on the lips from a 2 year old other than his mommy.  Well to her surprise, he grabbed her face, turned it towards her and planted a nice big, sloppy kiss on her lips.  Boy did that get a rise out of the other women int he room. 

I think I'm going to be in trouble in a few years...
