Ohhh Twoooodles!

This past Saturday our sweet baby boy turned 2. Still can't believe two years have already passed since he was born. It has went so fast! We celebrated with a Mickey Mouse party, one of his favorites, with some family and friends. It was a good time and we were able to stay outside for most of the party until it started sprinkling!

Some things I love about my sweet boy..

How easy he laughs. I love his laugh, and I hear it so much throughout each and every day. I love that he is so happy and easy going!

I love that he is so much in love with balls. Baseball and basketball have recently been his two favorites, although I think baseball is by far the top choice. It is not uncommon for Cavin to request a baseball shirt in the morning when getting dressed, and pajama's and blankets to sleep with need to have balls on them as well! We spend a lot of time during the day playing ball, basketball, playing catch, golfing, or hitting the baseball when we are outside.

His second love is choo choo trains. We are big fans of Chuggington at our house, and Cavin was so excited to get Chuggington choo choo trains for his birthday! He wouldn't even share with his Grandma when we first set up his track! He would rather put them away than share! Thankfully he is sharing them better now!

I love to watch how he tries to keep up with his big brother, even to the extent of following him to time out! It has made him grow up so much quicker I am sure, but I love how much he loves his brother and wants to be just like him. (In typical big brother fashion I think it annoys Rance sometimes!)

I love that he is all boy. He is all about running and jumping and wrestling with his dad and big brother, and he loves to be outside.

I love that he is generous with giving his mommy kisses-at least most of the time!

I love that he loves books. He asks to read books almost everyday and we will sit together and read 8-16 books in a sitting. 

I love that every time he hears the word "pray," he folds his hands together. It melts my heart. He is even starting to say prayers on his own.

I love that he is ornery and mischievous, I see so much of my Grandpa Tuley's personality in him, which warms my heart.

It really is bittersweet to watch him grow up into a little boy, learning to do all things little boys should. Just hard on mom that it all goes so fast! I am so thankful for the blessing of our Cavin Luke, he has brought much, much joy into our lives.

Happy Second Birthday my sweet boy!
