So, my baby boy is two! We had such an awesome day today. It was so much more fun this year than last because he is FULLY aware that it's his birthday and just loved all the excitement. Andy took today off so we could all go to the Children's Museum together. We have a family pass, so Quinn and I try to go once a week. We love that place so much, and it's been really fun to watch Quinn's development in seeing how he can do more and more every time we go. Andy hasn't been with us since July, so we loved showing him our favorite spots--the train displays, the Rube Goldberg ball machine, the construction zone, and the carousel room. Then we went out for dinner tonight and had cake and more presents at home. I can't say enough about what a fun day it was to spend together as a family, happy to celebrate the birth of our little guy and the one who brings incredible joy to us every day. :) I love this age so much, and I'm really looking forward to all the new adventures next year holds for us!
Here's the newly two year old! He wore a special button all day that said, "I'm 2 Years Old Today!" He thought it was so neat and kept holding on to it, as if it would fall off if he didn't. :)
Here he's trying to hold up two fingers to show how old he is. Unfortunately, he doesn't yet have the ability to single out just a few fingers to hold up, but Andy thought it was funny to ask him to try anyway! ;)
Seeing how excited he was to open his musical card, you can imagine how exciting it was to open the rest of his presents!
Admiring his mini-cake (again, a store-bought one!) and desperately wanting to dig in with both hands!
It was great to have Andy at the museum too because someone could take pictures for us! Here we are taking turns going down the "Yule Slide".
Apparently, being two has made Quinn much braver because before today, he emphatically said NO when I asked him if he'd like to ride the carousel, even though he loved watching it. Today, however, he rode with Daddy and had a blast.
And here Quinn and I stand by a train in one of our favorite spots.

What cute birthday posts! He obviously had a great time on both days. The three of you always look like you are having so much fun together! His smile always brings one to my face, too. =o)
What a fun b-day and day spent together as a family. I love these pictures. You are just the cutest family. :)
Such fun pictures! 2 is most definitely a milestone :-) I can't believe how big he's getting...and cuter and cuter by the minute, too ;-)
