Look who turned 2!

Hard to believe that little Jack is 2! What's even harder to believe is that Patrick is almost 6 months! Time really does go fast.
For Jack's birthday we had a small party last weekend with Grandma and Papa and my friend and her son came over for pizza and cake. Jack likes Curious George these days so the theme was Curious George and I made a cake with the monkey face on it. I drew it freehand and thought it came out pretty good! :) Jack actually didn't cry when we sang Happy Birthday to him! He got lots of nice gifts, cards, money from everyone - so thank you all! For his birthday on Tuesday I took him to Chick-fil-A for lunch where he only wanted to eat french fries. Then we went out to dinner and he only ate bread and green beans! Crazy appetite these toddlers have. For his birthday "cake" I made him a big pumpkin muffin. He LOVES pumpkin. I have more pictures from his birthday and just from the past month that I will be sending out.


Another milestone is Patrick starting cereal! Cute picture below of his first taste. He still doesn't quite get the whole eating from a spoon but he'll get there. He's definitely a bigger eater than Jack ever was. Patrick also has his 2 bottom teeth poking up! AND it won't be long before he's crawling. He rolls all over the place and pushes way up on his knees, so crawling is just around the corner. He really loves his big brother too. He loves to watch him play and dance and just laughs and laughs, it's the best thing to see :)



They both have their next check-ups in a couple weeks. I'm curious to see how much they've grown.

Yey, an updated blog! Awesome cake, Shelby. I can't believe that you made it yourself, very impressive. You must use some kind of 'special' tips that allow you to decorate cakes. You'll have to let me know. The last 2 years have gone by quickly, it's strange that Jack is already 2, he'll soon be out of his toddler stage. Patrick is as cute as ever!
