The littlest guy turned two over the weekend. These two years have definitely gone by fast! As any mom can relate, one minute you're gazing upon your tiny, newborn bundle of joy and then you blink and they've become this walking, talking, active little person.
We celebrated Benjamin's birthday on two separate days. First, there was some present opening...
Then there was much playing with his new things...
The Fisher Price Garage was a big hit...
After a brief trip to the playground, on account of rain, the little guy got to pick out a cake. He, of course, chose an ice cream cake...
He ate one and a half pieces...
Before our outing, we did the Ceremonial Turning Around of the Car Seat (you have to wait until they're two, now!)...
He seems to like his new perspective on things.
Benjamin also spent some quality time talking to his turtle, while his older brothers cleaned out her tank (he LOVES Maybe)...
The best part of his birthday adventure was two days later, when the whole family spent the afternoon at Patterson Fruit Farm for their Family Fall Fest. Benjamin LOVES to be outside, so we thought he'd really enjoy the enormous outdoor play area at the Fruit Farm.
Waiting for tractor-pulled wagon ride out to the playground...
First up was pumpkin painting...
Then there was much to explore, including corn mazes (one kid-size, one for bigger kids), things to ride, playing in the sandbox, sliding down the 50 ft. slide (with big brother), climbing in the tree fort and building with hay...
On behalf of Benjamin, thank you for all the birthday wishes!!!
