A Puppy Party!

We had Lincoln’s 2 year birthday party Saturday August 10th. We had his party out at Gateway Park. It was such a beautiful day but a little warm. That didn’t stop any of the kids from playing and having fun. Lincoln loves dogs (all animals in fact) so I thought it was perfect for a doggy theme. For food we had hot dogs, puppy chow served in dog bowls, fruit, chips and puppy cupcakes. His party was the same day as the Cedar Valley Trails festival. It worked out perfect because there was free face painting and balloon animals. I planned that well, ha :) Lincoln got so many fun gifts and has loved playing with all his new toys. He is a very well loved boy:)

Our 2 year old boy

*Lincoln is one of the busiest little boys I know

*He has such a fun imagination and loves to explore and just figure life out

*His speech is continuing to blossom and has new words everyday. He is finally mimicking us much more!

*Has a mind of his own and can still be super stubborn

*Books are still his new love. Night time is one of my most favorite times where we all cuddle up together and just read

*Loves to boss the dogs around now to tell them to go and go to bed!

*He has mastered climbing out of his crib at home so we took the front side off and now he just has a mesh rail on. We were shocked at how well that transition went. He stays in bed all night but does get up and pound on his door when he is ready to get up and play! Sometimes if we talk to him in his camera monitor to go back and lay down then he usually will.

*Lincoln continues to be a fabulous eater and seems to eat a lot more lately

*Still a very clumsy boy..there’s always some new bruise where we have no idea where it’s from!

*2 year molars are starting to finally peek!

*This boy just melts our hearts and makes us the happiest parents in the world. We love this two year old of ours :)
