TWO

My baby is two. We started the celebration on Monday, the only day this week not interrupted by work, school, scouts, primary, temple, etc. We took the kids to the zoo . . . it was Easton's 1st time. He really liked looking at all the animals. The bear walked in and out of a cave and every time it came out Easton would say "peekaboo". He also really liked a little owl and tried to play peekaboo with it, too. We all had fun. After Easton's nap we went to Grandma & Grandpa's house for more partying, cake, ice cream and presents. He loved it all. He even blew out his candles all by himself (something we couldn't say about Lauren until she was 4). Today we pulled Logan out of school for an hour and went to Burger King (so Easton could have it his way) for lunch and playing and opening presents. Because he's so proficient at blowing out candles, we put more candles in his leftover cake today and he blew them out again. Tonight at dinner we had popeye pancakes, one of Easton's favorites, and he asked for candles. So, he had candles on his pancakes tonight, then again on his ice cream after dinner. He might be let down tomorrow when I don't put candles in everything, turn out the lights and sing Happy Birthday like we did 3 times today.

Here's Easton with his new birthday jammies on, pretending to be asleep! We love him.
