Alex's 2nd Birthday

Capping our two weeks of birthday celebrations - Alex's 2nd Birthday!  Happy birthday is his favorite song, and it has been the song he requests we sing to him before bed for about 6 months.  So very exciting to truly sing it to him for his birthday! 

I was going to be gone most of his actual birthday for a friend's baby shower in upstate New York, so we had a big celebration the day before!  We started the day with a trip to the beach with Aunt Carrie and Tyler.  She brought a special breakfast and Alex's very own balloon.

Then that evening we had Alex's dinner and opened the last of the presents.  He was very excited to have his own presents and practiced the word "Mine!" a lot :)

Michael had a lot of fun celebrating with the boys on the actual day, taking them to Chipolte.

Happy birthday Alex!!

Alex very excited about his Elmo card.

Alex was convinced for months he had a fire truck shirt, and would ask for it every morning (we didn't have one).  So we got one for him for his birthday.  He hasn't taken it off since!

Nathan tried to touch one of Alex's truck, he gathered them all up and screamed "mine!"

Nathan very excited about his plant mobile (we found one of Nathan's presents in with Alex's :)

Alex is obsessed with ants, so Michael got him an ant farm!
