Hayden Turns TWO!

Today my little man turned two!  It feels like he has been two for a while now, what with his vocabulary and communication skills so much more advanced than when Kylie turned two.  I just love it!  This week he finally started nodding to say yes, instead of grunting.  He is also repeating lots of words that you say to him, though he may not say them on his own.

We had a little family party for him tonight, and invited his only friend Sophia and her family over to celebrate with us.  Luckily Sophia is Kylie's friend too so they all get along together pretty well.  We had some pizza and then sang Happy Birthday and he blew out his candles all by himself!

I had to make sure to take the papers off of Hayden's cupcakes, because he would just down the whole thing.  I am pretty sure he ate at least three of them before I realized that he didn't know to throw that part away... oops!

We had a Big Hero 6 theme and decorated with streamers and white balloons that I put Baymax's face on.  The kids loved it and played Balloon volleyball all night long.

After cupcakes we opened presents.  As soon as Hayden saw his dinosaur he started roaring, and then as soon as he saw his Baymax plushie he gave it a big hug!  Yay!  I knew he would love his robot!

After presents we projected Big Hero 6 onto the wall and watched it while the kids played with their balloons.  Hayden ended up asking to go to bed before it was over, but I think he enjoyed his birthday party!  It was definitely fun and we enjoyed having Sophia and her family over to celebrate with us.
