Happy 2nd Birthday (Part 2)


Finally the actual BIRTHDAY! We started celebrating early with breakfast at Rainbow Grill. Dylan usually loves the blueberry pancakes, but this time wanted eggs and sausage. And boy, did he eat a lot! We ordered 1 egg and sausage, but I think he got 3 eggs with 3 sausage links! And he ate almost all of it, plus some of Jon's French Toast & my bran muffin with fruit! When we got home, Dylan had fun helping Jon wash the cars while playing with his toys.

After lunch and a short nap, Dylan opened some presents with us. He loved his new train set but wanted to eat his "machine cake", so we headed over to Grandpa and Grandma Meengs' to celebrate Dylan's, Mark's (July 1), and Grandma's (July 3) birthdays. Dylan loved playing with Chloe and Julia in the yard while the guys played Bag-O and Horseball. After a yummy supper of pizza burgers, Julia and Dylan told Grandma, "It's present time!" After opening presents, it was finally time to check out his cool "machine cake". He really just wanted to play with the machines, and after we sang to him, he dug right in! He couldn't even finish his cake because he was too excited to play with his new golf clubs.

Overall, it was great birthday! It is amazing to us that he is 2 already. It seems like just yesterday it was just the 2 of us, but at the same time it seems like he's been around forever. Dylan adds so much joy and laughter to our house. We love him tons and can't wait to see what he learns and does in the next year!

Here are some pictures...








Stay tuned... we'll do this again next week with the Westras when Aunt Amy & Uncle Reed come up to see us!
