A day in the life of Oliver: Two

I have just been informed that I haven't written a blog in a month. It may have something to do with the fact that I have been either extremely busy or in extreme pain (yes, I know, life could get worse) alternatively for the past month. That is on top of the fact that my sweet precious baby boy son has decided that sleep is optional at best.

Speaking of the kid, he turned two last week!! On the 18th of January, my baby became a bigger baby and without much fanfare, just a pizza party, two cakes, a theme park (of sorts), a big party with what seemed like 436 toddlers, more gifts than we have room for and only a couple of ponies. Oliver now has a complex about presents, he believes all wrapped items are now "mine". What do you expect when Christmas happens two weeks before two separate parties for your second birthday? Also, I wonder if this is some kind of trend. Maybe next year we will have THREE parties!!

Almost everyone that Oliver loves was in attendance at one of the two parties. His dearest Auntie Britt and Uncle B were in Scotland but sent a "super" gift of a Super Oliver Cape!!! While it took a few tries, Oliver just had to have it on for his birthday with his friends and proceeded to run around the house in it. She skyped in for the event and actually WAS in attendance around the same time Oliver was born on the 18th. It meant a lot for that to happen. And, Oliver's grandparents in Dallas couldn't make the party for personal reasons but sent Oliver's very first remote control car. I proceeded to accidently run over his toes with it, causing somewhat of an RC complex in my son. He will never be able to go to Radio Shack thanks to me. We missed all who weren't there, and enjoyed all of our friends who made it!

Here are some photos if you happen to be one that couldn't make it!
