So I know I say this all the time but seriously, where DOES the time go?? I had to stop from ordering 1st Birthday supplies and remind myself that Josiah was indeed turning TWO this June 25th. Wasn't he just born a few weeks ago?? In some ways it seems like that and in some ways it seems like he's always been here because I can barely remember life without him:-) He is such a funny and sweet little boy and Seth and I comment often at how incredibly blessed we feel that God gave him to us to raise. He was so excited about it being his birthday and we planned a froggie themed party because his BFF Froggie was in on the planning:-) He has recently taken to Barney and Elmo also but Froggie remains his fave. He also is old enough now to understand birthday parties and that a party means CAKE! Or in our case, puck-cakes (cupcakes). I have to say a HUGE thank you to Cindy and Vanessa who helped with the food since I pulled a genius move and scheduled his party for the day after we got back from vacation. I did take the easy route and order the puck-cakes from Sam's along with 6 dozen buns for the BBQ that I made and froze before we left. Don't judge me too harshly, I really intended to make his birthday cake but in the interest of maintaining sanity, I went with the "let the experts do their thing" route this year. We were lucky that most of our family and friends were able to make it to the party and we had B-E-A-utiful weather that allowed us to be outside! Here are a few pictures and a video from the day. Our little baby is two...*sniff*...seriously, where does the time go?
