Our New 2-Year Old

Silas turned two years old last Tuesday. It's so hard to believe that he is already 2! We had a wonderful day of celebrating him.

Silas woke up to some birthday decorations and a few gifts.

 One of his favorite gifts was this dump truck from Great Grandma Kapusta. It has buttons that make the back go up and down and that make the truck move forward and backward. 

 I made these monkey cupcakes for dessert. Silas thought they were the best thing ever and has been talking about monkey cupcakes quite often since his birthday.

 We didn't do a whole lot during the day of Silas' birthday. I took the boys on one of our big shopping trip outings to Omaha. That is eventful enough for me! In the late afternoons for the past week and a half we have had parent/child swimming lessons. We usually get home around 6:00pm and give the boys quick baths before eating supper. That is why Sy is in his jammies for the rest of these pics. At swimming lessons that night, everyone sang "Happy Birthday" to Silas. He felt pretty special!


 Silas thought his monkey cupcake was pretty tasty!

I think Silas enjoyed his day. He kept saying "birthday" all day long and was in a fantastic mood the whole day. He got to open a few gifts from family after each meal and was excited about them. From us, he got a new carseat - a Britax Frontier highback harness booster seat. Thankfully, he is at an age that he is satisfied with not getting a "fun" gift from us. But, he has been very excited about his new carseat that matches Jonah's seat. 

We are so thankful for our new two-year-old boy! We love you, Silas! The Lord was good in giving you to us!
