Hayden Turns the Big 2

Well my oldest is officially a two year old. I can't hardly believe it. It really has gone fast. Every year goes faster. While I don't post every picture I take, I'm so glad that I take so many. Its amazing to see the difference in my kids throughout one year. He amazes me more all the time. His language development is amazing. He is making sentences using 3 or more words now and knows his colors and basic shapes. He is counting and knows his family members even from far away. He loves to jump from the stairs, play with Sadie, and loves anything that is remotely related to a car. He loves to read still and looks forward to playdates with his friends. He is passionate and stubborn and independent but has a sweet and gentle side with his mom and sister. He is his own little person and everyday he makes me so proud. We had a party to celebrate and his friends and their parents and his Grandma Vickie and Grandpa John were able to come. He had a blast and even enjoyed a piece of cake this year. It was dairy, egg, and peanut free and actually tasted pretty good if you ask me. If you want the recipe let me know... And now, to the pictures.
