Our Little Mister is quite a character, with enough joy, energy and SASS to fill a football field.
Or several.
I had the opportunity to celebrate my sweet Little Summer Baby during his half birthday party at preschool last week. He was so excited!
Being sung to by the Happy Birthday Bear…
And eating his birthday cookies…
(Made from scratch, I’ll have you know. Best.Mom.Ever.)
(And.Oh.So.Humble.)
He’s such a hoot.
Here are a few favorite videos of our Little Mister Man. Suffice to say, I am going to be SO SO SAD when he finally figures out how to pronounce his Ls. Type in “wright” to watch.
(Reading that title you may think I’m just speaking in hyperbole, but no. Oh no. I speak the truth! But more on that later…)
It was BIRTHDAY BASH time for our summer babies!
So what better way to celebrate then to go wild and crazy with a bunch of family and friends at the Little Gym (a.k.a. The Happy Place for our Little Monkeys)?!?
We set the kids loose and they ran, jumped, slid, flipped, flopped, and SO SO much more!
As if that wasn’t enough entertainment, we even provided our Little Party-Goers with THREE firetrucks to look at outside!
(Am I an Over-Achiever or what?!?)
Okay, so we didn’t actually orchestrate that part. As it so happened, the fire department had been called in because some smoke was noticed at the animal hospital next door.
No biggie, right? Just a possible fire only a few feet away from a room FULL of small children.
Whatev.
Undeterred, we lined up the kiddos and headed for the party room.
We were just about to serve a whole lotta pizza and cake to the crowd, and THEN guess what happened…?
We were told to evacuate.
Crap.
Like any good (panicking) Party Planner I quickly tried to come up with a Plan B. But what the heck could I do for a Plan B?!? All of the kids were hungry and suffering from low blood sugar, it was way hot to eat outside on the sidewalk, and my Little Miss and Mister hadn’t even blown out their candles yet! This was going to be a disaster.
But then, glory of all glories, a fire fighter came back in and told us that everything was under control and we did NOT, in fact, have to evacuate. Hallelujah!
Time to eat cake.
Phew.
What a day…what a party! It was nuts. And dramatic. And awesome.
I have no clue where the time has gone, but today our
Little Mister turns TWO years old!
The Little Mister brings so much joy to our family,
with a smile that could light up any room.
He still loves a good cuddle and can be so very sweet.
(Particularly when “baboos,” chocolate, and books are involved.)
But don’t let his sweetness and charm fool you.
The boy has a feisty streak all his own.
With seemingly boundless energy, our Little Mister is one very active (and precocious!) little dude.
Sandboxes and monkey bars beware. You’ve met your match.
And like his Big Sis, he’s a total goofball (with quite the fashion sense),
who loves to make people laugh.
(Tutus are a particular favorite these days, but nothing makes him happier
than his nightly “naked time!” races and wrestling matches with the Little Miss.)
Following in the footsteps of his Mommy, our Little Mister Middle Child
LOVES spending time with his Big Sis and Little Bro.
(Truth be told, he’s a bit lost when he can’t be sidekick to the Little Miss.)
He loves his Daddy too (just listen to his squeals when Daddy comes home!),
and is such a chip off the ole’ block.
I can’t believe what a Big Boy my Little Mister has become.
He FILLS our lives with so much happiness
(and mess, and band-aids, and time-outs, and LAUGHTER).
We treasure our TWO YEAR OLD Little Mister!
