Well, well, well, I am finally going to catch up even if takes me the whole day:) Plus he will be 3 soon and I don't want to have to post last year's b-day and this years in the same post. haha.
Rhyder turned 2, and he is obsessed with Caillou. I attempted to do a Caillou cake and we invited the fam over. My grandparents made it this year and we were happy they could come. Thanks all.
The gang.
Rhyder and his dancing Mickey Mouse. I remember when these first came out they were like almost $200.00 around Christmas time. I got so lucky and found it on clearance for $20.00!! I was so excited. He absolutely loved it. I can't believe the technology involved with toys now. They come out with the coolest things.
Okay, so he is not the most adorable little guy ever?! I am in such big trouble;)
Blowing out the Birthday candles, is a hard task for two year old, right. It ended up being lets blow spit instead of air, so we decided to have the helpful older brother come to his aid.
After cake. Must a been some good cake.
Each year we throw a party for the kids, which sometimes is just cake and ice cream and presents. They always get to pick an activity as well. The zoo was doing their promotion with the Dinosaurs so we decided to go check it out. It was soooo hot, but still fun.
The Dinosaurs were actually pretty cool, but the scared Rhyder to death. I swear I am the worst parent, I could not help but laugh that he was so scared. Rhyder is usually never scared of anything and I mean anything.
The misters, Lleyton loved them ... Rhyder not so much.
People always think they are twins. I have never been able to figure out why. I guess they could be confused for twins when I look at this picture. Rhyder is a big kid for his age and Lleyton is little and skinny. When they're sitting down they look like the same size I guess. Add the baseball caps and yea, I guess I can kinda see it.
Good golly, has anyone ever seen a giraffe eat? This was sooo cool. I had no idea their tongues are super long and black. Their food is caged, they literally stick their tongue in and get it that way. Had no idea. LOOK AT THAT TONGUE, CRAZY!
Lleyton at the big windy mister at the end. Seriously, I think he would have stayed there all day.
Rhyder's premier choice was the large marble ball with the water. We did the train ride, saw dinosaurs and lots of animals and his absolute favorite part was this thing ... really?? I think University Mall has one of these, maybe next year we'll just take him there. Haha.
When we had to leave and remove him from the ball, it was not pretty.
Oh Rhyder, how much I love you, you could never possibly know. Even when you are really naughty, I can't help but want to hold you and tell you it's okay. I don't, but it doesn't mean I don't want to. I want you to grow up a happy healthy kid. You are so funny and literally always make me laugh. You are a non-stop talker, which is adorable. You are adventurous and have no fear. You love playing with your brother and I am so glad you are mine. Mwah. Love you!
