Happy 2nd Birthday Andrew!

We had a great time celebrating Andrew’s birthday with family and friends.  We had a race car theme birthday since Andrew LOVES cars!  Aarons parents came up from Wenatchee and spent the weekend with us, as well as all my family came to his party.

One of my friends makes cakes and she made Andrew’s cake in trade for some scrapbooking I will do for her.  I thought it turned out great!

We bought Andrew a car mat for his birthday and he was so excited when he saw it!  He gotten woken up from his nap and was not happy about it.  He came downstairs and needed a snuggle. He then wanted a drink, so we got off the couch to get one and he was throwing a fit about something.  He walked onto the mat, looked down and saw the cars and the mat and it from throwing a fit to “wow, cars” all at once.  It was so funny to see the instant change in his behavior once he saw the cars.  He and Aaron decided to try it out before the party.

I also made goodie bags for all the kids.  The kids loved them!

Andrew and his birthday cupcake.  He actually tried blowing out his candles, he needed a little help from dad though.  He thought they were so good that he had two cupcakes.  I figured, why not, it’s your birthday.

Present time!  Andrew got some really great presents.  He is definitely spoiled by all!  He had the unwrapping part down.  We didn’t even have to tell him to take the paper off, he just started ripping.

We opened all the presents so everyone could play with them and Aaron and Tyler got started on putting the bike together from Grandpa and Grandma Wright.  They barely got it together before Andrew climbed on.  When Andrew wasn’t riding it, Tyler had to hide it so he could put the decals on it.
