Happy Birthday John! We had a fun filled day! First we went to the doctor’s office (the picture below is of John and Jenna in the waiting room of the doctor’s office) to have his 2 year check up (complete with shots–ow). After that we decided to go to the mall and try the Kiddie Kandids thing. They had a big wait, so we had to do some shopping, go have lunch, and then have his picture taken. John was great all through the mall and we had a fun time–until we went back to Kiddie Kandids and some strange lady tried to get John to smile. I got a really great grumpy shot and one serious one. The smile attempts did NOT work, no matter what the lady says about those being cute smiles. I know what a cute smile is, and he wasn’t doing it.

Anyway, later last night we had his Birthday dinner of hot dogs and macaroni and cheese, then had his “party” with presents and cake and ice cream (Thanks, Julene, for decorating the cake!). His favorite present was undoubtably the three matchbook cars that Julene had on the cake. He wouldn’t go to bed without them, and he’s been playing with them all day so far. I don’t know why I bother getting him other toys–he’s happy with a couple of little cars (two for each hand, to be more specific).

We’re happy to have such a darling boy in our family, and he had a fun Birthday. For more pictures of his birthday celebration, Click Here
