That's right, our little Michael just had a birthday! He turned 2 this past Saturday, Oct 23rd. We celebrated on Friday late afternoon with a small pumpkin patch party. We then headed to a local pizza spot for dinner. It was a wet day that day but the kids did not seem to mind. They made pumpkin crafts, went on rides, enjoyed birthday cake, and even picked out a pumpkin of their own to take home. I have posted a few pictures from Michael's party for you.
I figured this post would be the perfect time to give an update on our little guy. Michael continues to have such a sweet little personality. He is so silly and loves to laugh and make others laugh too. He cracks himself up all the time. Michael plays so well by himself and really does not need to be entertained much. That being said, he likes to take off on his own quite a bit too. At a park you have a keep an eagle eye on this boy. Within seconds he will stray from the fun play structure equipment to the more exciting soccer fields where all the birds are hanging out!!!
