Happy Birthday, Big Boy!

7am~pretty impressed with his new stroller! Upon arrival to the kitchen, he noticed the stroller had a present in it! ...and a pom-pom!

Why not have a pit-stop to open up the first gift?

What's it going to be?

GASP~a new baby!

(Do you know how HARD it was to find a 'boyish' baby?)

Books! Lucky boy! He sure does like to 'read'!

As you all know by now...you have to make sure the new cars line up nicely on the couch :)

Ready for his birthday breakfast of french toast, orange, and grapes!

And now...off to the park! What a beautiful day for the park!

On his way up the fun slide...which he goes on over, and over...and over again!

There's nothing like putting your face on a dirty platform that hundreds of kids run on each day!

Buddies! Carter celebrated his 2nd birthday yesterday!

Too cool for school.

So sweet!

A not-so-happy-that-he's-being-held-back-from-playing birthday boy!

After a fun time at the park, it was lunchtime....and nap-time. The trip to the park helped out with that :) Upon waking up....his 'party' began!

Pretty excited that Paige has arrived!

Getting the party started!

What kid doesn't love a balloon?

"Oooh, is that cake for ME?"

"Let me at it!!!"

"Candles!"

"Mmm, I could eat more cake!"

Showing off his cars to Grandpa

"Ooooh, more books!"

Movin' on...such a strong boy :)

Ready to open again...with his trusty assistant by his side. What a help to get him started. He was even pointing at where he'd like her to help out when needed :)

This was right before the biggest "WOW" you've ever heard! Followed by a "brrm", since it was a semi-truck/trailer.

Cruisin' again...this time, with baby!

...and now that's it's time for bed, one last ride...pant-less!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY sweet peanut. What a great day! Thanks again to everyone! Better rest up for more birthday fun with Daddy!
