These past 2 years have gone by WAY to fast!! He is so much fun I am so grateful that he is my son. He is adventurous, and smart, and witty, and so very sweet, any time I yell out "ouch" he says to me "whats wrong mommy? What did you step on?" and if I'm ever crying which doesn't happen often only like once a day :) j/k anyway when I do cry he runs up to me rubs my back and says "whats wrong mommy, What you need" He is so loving and I appreciate him so much!! . He loves to "nuggle". Every night and naptime he will always ask "Mommy will you nuggle me?" It is so hard to say no to his sweet little voice. He also loves to give "slobbery kisses" to his brothers. Every night he wants to get up on their bed and tackle them and say "slobbery kisses"and try to kiss them as they scream "NOOO, Benne get off" haha he thinks it's so funny. He also loves to sing and Shake his booty. His favorite song to sing and dance to is 22 by Taylor Sift its so cute to hear him sing along and dance. Here are a few of his favorite things.

Oh I just LOVE tis kid so much!!

We had a small birthday party with a few kids from church. We had a good time. I think I forgot how simple you have to make 2 year old birthday parties because some of the games I planned were a little hard for them oops. it was still fun though.

We had a Monsters University Theme Birthday party. We got him the movie for his birthday and good thing he liked it because I had already planned his whole party! 
The Mike and Sully Birthday banner
GAMES:
Drop the Monster eyeball in the cup

Find Mike and Sully
We also played "don't drop the Monsters eye" With a pingpong ball on a spoon
and
Build your own monster I'm a little upset that I forgot to take pictures of all of the monsters because I spent hours on them, Each kid got to build a felt monster and take it home with them. Didn't work out to well they weren't very excited about it. Oh well you live and learn right.

I can't believe I just saw this post. I got out of the habit of checking your blog since you never post! Bennet's birthday party was adorable. You are such an amazing party planner. I seriously cannot believe that he is so big already. I can't wait to see you in a month!!
