Bennett is 2!!!

Our sweet boy turned 2 yesterday!  I cannot believe it...he's still my baby, right?!  We sure do love our hilarious, crazy, spirited boy and all of the laughter and joy he brings to our family.  

He loves to play dress up!  

His sweet smile!  He loves to sit on the counter and help cook!

Waking him up on his birthday morning!  He ALWAYS wakes up so happy!

Donuts and presents!

Love that sweet face!



Graham helping him open presents!


Paw Patrol of course!








He spent his birthday morning at his soccer class!  He goes on Mondays from 9:45-10:15 to a class for 2-3 year olds in our park.  It's PERFECT for him!  He listens and follows instructions so well!




Stretching!







Waking him up after his nap.  I have to wake him up most days!  He naps from 1-4:15 ish.

Wearing his new police costume he got for his birthday!

Out to dinner at Lupe's for his birthday!

Love the cheesy grin!  He was a happy boy with lots of queso!

They sang to him and put this huge sombrero on!  He was pretty stoic because he was working so hard on keeping it on and holding his head up!


There's a smile!

And sopapillas for dessert!


Glueing at school this morning!

And we took cupcakes to share with his class for his birthday!




Playing outside!


I love that his teachers sent me these pictures from today!

Doing what he does best...climbing!

We go to the dr for his 2 year check up on Thursday.  I'm expecting him to still be off the charts numbers wise!  We had such a sweet day celebrating our big 2 year old!

Weekend Wrap-up

What a fun and busy weekend we had!  Our special treat was that Nana and Bop came into town to see us!  We went to the Baylor v. Rice football game on Friday night, had Graham's first soccer game on Saturday morning, and celebrated Bennett and Nana's birthdays!

Dinner at Mia's on Friday evening before the game!

Walking into the stadium

It was hot!

Ready to cheer for the Bears!

It was a beautiful evening, just hot!

Sweet friends that loved sitting together at the game!


He always knew when to cheer and clap!


Real life with Steph!  5 kids, almost 6, between us...trying to corral all of them at the game!
So thankful for these sweet friends!

Ready to cheer for Bubba at his soccer game!

I love #6!


He was excited to play!




He was sure that I took a picture of both the front and the back of his uniform!

My big boy!

Time for cake and presents!

Birthday buddies!





He loved the cake!  And I wish I had gotten his reaction on video when he opened a new trash truck from Nana and Bop!

We gave Nana and Bop hugs and kisses as we went to church this morning and they headed back to Waco!

Bennett and Madison!
It was our Sunday to volunteer in Bennett's room during worship hour.  It's always fun, and it definitely makes you appreciate the workers who are in there every single week!

We have a fun and busy week ahead starting with celebrating our big 2 year old all day tomorrow!!
