Officially 2!

I still can’t believe it, but my youngest baby boy is already two! I feel as if these past two years have gone by the quickest. I really wish time would just slow down. I LOVE my kids more than anything, and I just enjoy them being little. Bradley is already getting into that big kid stage where he thinks he can talk back, and be a smart mouth. I do not look forward to the teen age years. I love the sweet, loving little boys that they are now.

Well anyway, for Dustin’s Birthday we went to our local pizza shop. It’s a nice quiet place with a back room for parties, or just whom ever wants to dine in. It also has some arcade games and a air hockey table (the older kids loved that). My mom, dad, oldest nephew, niece April, and Brad’s mom, dad, and Samantha came. Things probably would have been better under normal circumstances but we were in a hurry because Brad had a job interview at 3. Brad & I bought 3 pizza’s and pitchers of soda for everyone, and I had made Dustin his special Kitty cat cake that he wanted.

After cake, Dustin opened up his gifts which was SO funny! My favorite part was when I helped him open the card from my dad, Dustin’s pop-pop. I read the front of the card, and Dustin helped me open it to read the rest, when money fell out. Dustin went nuts and started screaming “mm-ney, mm-ney”. Everyone laughed at him. I never would have thought Dustin would freak over money like that lol.

After Dustin’s party was basically over, I realized I hadn’t had Brad video tape it. Everything went by so quickly, and I was so busy with the kids and everything going to I had forgotten. Now, I am so heart broken that I don’t have the video of him with his cake, and the cute & funny reactions while he opened his gifts. I also didn’t get anywhere near enough in the picture department. My oldest son was misbehaving, and that took a great deal of time away from Dustin. Brad was so angry, and it showed. He lost his cool, and it was just down and out right tense. GRRR!!!

I do hope to put Dustin’s special Birthday shirt on, and have a little photo shoot with him some time this week. Of course it has to be once his new “boo-boo” goes away. This morning while the older boys were getting ready for preschool Dustin had an accident. I have no clue what happened because I was in the process of getting Bradley dressed. Parker was running around with Dustin, and I heard a bang, then screaming. Dustin came right to me in a flash holding his nose and eyes just screaming. I held him and noticed he had a bloody nose. I asked him what happened and he said “door”. He had apparently tripped over a toy while running, and hit his face (right between the eyes) on the door’s hinge. Now my poor little guy has a perfectly round large red circle directly between his eyes. He acts as if nothing happened now, but he sure did give mommy a scare.

Well here are a few pictures from his Birthday. Not many, I know. Depressing to me because I can’t get those moments back. I really wish we would have remembered to video tape the party.

The cake I made. Dustin loves cats so that is what he asked for.

Looking at his candles.. I think he was getting tired.
