Happy Birthday TWO You!

Cadence is now TWO years old! We had quite the celebration!!


Amy helped Aunt Maria (her sister) make a Blue cake (Blue from Blue's Clues).

Cadence was excited about Blue, but didn't really enjoy tasting it (what mom is complaining that her kid doesn't like cake? - not me!).

We let him open his presents a bit early so some close friends and family could be there.

He waited so patiently to open his big box from his Smith Grandparents... in fact, he had a great time decorating it! Thanks for the box!

and what was inside??


He likes to sit on it, but we're still trying to teach him how to ride it by himself.

From his Baron grandparents he got...

...which his dad enjoyed just as much as he did!


His many great-grandparents sent cards and money, which was used to buy new clothes for our growing boy (now 35 1/2" tall and about 26 lbs). He had quite a few people call to sing "Happy Birthday" too! He never wanted to talk long (too busy playing with his new toys), but smiled each time he heard the birthday song!
We are grateful Cadence has so many family members to love him.
Tune in to the next post to find out what his parents got him...
