On April 7th, our precious little man turned 2! We've been having so much fun celebrating Eli's birthday, Easter, and having birthday parties, I have scarcely had time to post pictures. :) Taking one thing at a time, today I will share some of the pictures from Eli's actual birthday. It was a great day and we are so thankful for the chance to celebrate 2 years with our treasured and loved little 2 year old!
**Okay, all, I am going to pre-apologize for sideways pics. For some reason they loaded wrong. I will try to fix them soon, but I want to go ahead and post now since this is already a few weeks late! Please just turn your head sideways accordingly. :)
Birthday Breakfast
 |
| Mommy and Eli making muffins together...a special breakfast for a special birthday boy! |
 |
| Presents with breakfast, how awesome!! |
Bigbys
 |
| We went to a local coffee shop that has become a recent hangout of ours. It is fantastic because they have a corner with toys for little kids to play! We can sip some delightful bitter brew, read the paper, and Eli has a great time too...a win win! |
 |
| Mama and the Birthday Boy! |
Easter Egg Hunt
 |
| Since Eli's birthday was the Saturday before Easter this year, he got a special treat and got to hunt easter eggs on his bday. He definitely understood it better this year than last year and had a good time. |
 |
| The grand collection total...a whopping 5 eggs! That is more than double his age...not too bad. :) |
 |
| Ahh, discovering the delicious treasure inside!! |
 |
| After the egg hunt, we headed over to another church that puts on and Easter "Egg-stravaganza." Eli loved the petting zoo. |
Park
 |
| We discovered this new park right across the street from the Egg-stravaganza. What better than a stop at the park on a beautiful birthday-day! |
Cake
 |
| We made mini little 3-2-1 cakes on Eli's actual bday. |
Later we went to Dick's to play basketball and golf. Overall it was a great birthday!
2 year Check up
 |
| While this pic was actually a few days after, it will make this post. Here is a sweet one of my little 2 year old waiting for his 2 year old doctor's appointment. All went well and they said he is a healthy and happy boy. He is in the 65-70% for his height and the 35% for his weight. |
