Well, on his actual birthday, we decided to take him to a japanese steakhouse since he has newly acquired a taste for steak and likes the show they put on. Unfortunately, I forgot my camera, so no pictures of the birthday dinner. It was funny though when the chef asked if anyone was celebrating anything special and we told him it was Caden's 2nd birthday...he smiled and asked us if he picked out the restaurant :).
For his birthday, I stayed up most of the night before and made cupcakes for his entire class. I saved a few for us to have after his birthday dinner. Unfortunately, he wasn't too big on the cupcake...
So, then I stayed up late that night and made sugar cookies for his whole class, since I KNOW he loves sugar cookies. We get one every time we go to Publix.
Funny, by baking all of this stuff for his class, it made me feel like such a mommy!
We had his little party at a park near our house that Sunday. It was Disney Cars theme. Here's a picture of his fabulous cake made by none other than Sandy Stone (she did our wedding cake and his baseball cake last year)...amazing, but everything is edible!
Caden has developed a new love of pizza...which on one hand, we are thankful that he is expanding his food selection and then on the other hand...we wish it was something a little healthier for him than pizza...like broccoli or something. So, his wish was our command and we had pizza for his party...
Blowing out his birthday candles...or at least trying to...
We had so many friends come by to help us celebrate our big boy's birthday...
Anniston...
Bailey...
Swayze...
Caden was definitely more into the opening of presents this year...But then as soon as he opened them, he wanted them out of the box immediately so he could play with them!
Uncle Todd, Aunt Carly, Brody and Wade had to leave before the party since Wade was up all night with a fever, but they stopped by before they left to drop off Caden's present, roll some balls, and take some pictures with Mimi and Grammy...
And Nana sent up some clothes, toys and books for Caden's birthday...and here is what he wanted most out of the box...he kept taking them off, but wanted me to put them right back on him...
More pictures to come of some of his other favorite toys...a water table and an outdoor grilling playhouse from us...
