Jackson, You're Two!

It's a bittersweet day around here, because my baby is turning two! Technically he won't be two until 9:44 PM, so I guess I still have a few hours left with a one year old. It's so amazing how quickly time passes. I remember all those nights awake when he was a  newborn thinking, oh I can't wait till he's older so that he'll sleep. I knew then that I would wish for that time back, and boy do I. I am so thankful to have a happy, healthy little boy who is blossoming into such a wonderful BIG boy. 

So Jackson, what are you doing at two years old you may ask?

You are running all over the place. 

You can throw a ball sidearm better than any pitcher I've ever seen

You love the water and all things outdoors

Eating is one of you least favorite things right now, but you're finally getting into eating chicken nuggets

You love playing with trains, trucks and balls

You have this amazing personality and ability to make people laugh

You love your family, especially your Daddy and Grandparents

You give great hugs and even better kisses



You say words like:
ball
awww baby
bananer
boon (balloon)
Momma
Daddy
Mimi
Bobby (Poppy)
Nana
Bapa
shoes
go

Just in the last few days you've said multiple sentences like
"Uh oh boon go up der" Translation: (Uh oh the balloon went up there)
"Uh oh I got a boo boo"
"Uh oh you go get it choo choo" (wanting me to go get his train)

Notice everything starts with uh oh :-)

For any of you who know Jackson, you know that he is stubborn little boy who only talks when he wants to, so sentences are a huge thing for us!

I'm sure missing all those wonderful things that happened the last two years, but so excited about the next several years. Thank you God for blessing me with an awesome little boy! 
I LOVE YOU SWEET RED HEAD!

A Penguin Birthday Party

 
My boy is turning two! He actually won't be two for another 13 days, but we had his party a few days early to do it with my nephew who turned 6.
 

Jackson got a golf cart from his Mimi and Poppy

We got a huge bounce house

And a slip and slide
 

Jackon's party table with the best rice crispy treats ever (dipped in almond bark)


Blowing out his candles
 
 

An Easter egg pinata we forgot to use on Easter

 

MMMM Smarties
 

Letting his balloons go

 
 

My nephew Michael

We had a really low key party. We just let the kids run around and do whatever they wanted and have fun! Jackson had a great time. I'm so thankful for everyone who came out to make his party so special.
