So this weekend we celebrated Boston's day of birth. His actual birthday was last week but since Todd is working mostly evening shifts there wasn't time to do a party then. On his actual birthday we let Bos open a couple presents (a little people airplane, and a penguin pillow pet). He loves his pillow and likes to play with his airplane when his big sister isn't hogging it. We still struggle with sharing most days. We even bought a cheesecake from the bakery to enjoy (I'm not going to lie Boston probably only had one bite of that).
As you can tell we had a cookie monster themed party.
We just stuck with a blue and cookie theme everywhere. Most stores don't have cookie monster decorations, and I never remember to order stuff online in time. We did find some cookie monster books to give out as party favors, also guests got a bag of chips ahoy mini cookies, and a bag of cotton candy (much thanks to my grandma's neighbor for making the cotton candy).
Boston was pretty excited for his party.
We had pizza for dinner (Boston's favorite).
This would be the 2nd child of mine that wasn't too thrilled with their birthday cake. Reese bawled the moment she stuck her finger in the frosting on her first birthday. Boston got frosting on his fingers and didn't like it too well either. He didn't even dig into the cake part.
It's his party and he can cry if he wants too...
Opening presents.
Helpful cousins.
We didn't worry too much about the mess he was making since he'll only be wearing this shirt once. Notice the blue frosting, pizza and root beer stains.
Modeling his new birthday shirt.
Showing off on his new 4-wheeler. He can barely touch with his toes, but he still pushes himself across the room. It was a great birthday!
