Happy 2nd Birthday Atreyu!

We had quite the weekend. We celebrated Atreyu's 2nd birthday (which I can't believe has already come and gone) and Jesse and I worked hard planting grass in the backyard. On Atreyu's birthday, we had cinnamon rolls for breakfast, he watched a little Toy Story and then he and I went outside. I raked the backyard and in between playing he would come help me. When Jesse woke up, he took Atreyu for a four-wheeler ride and then Atreyu also got a ride with Papa. Papa also took him in the skid steer when he loaded hay. He was able to play outside almost all weekend and he loved it.

Atreyu opened a couple presents on his birthday and then the rest the next day when we had a mini party with Papa, Grandma, Josh and Kim. We gave him tractor bedding for a big boy bed (which he is now sleeping in pretty well), Jesse's old toy barn, a silo, tractors and farm animals. He loved it all!

He was so excited about his new toys that he hardly touched his cake. I made him a tractor cake which turned out pretty good but not the way I envisioned it. All he really cared about though were the tractors so everything worked out. Kim's birthday was the next day so the party was partly for her as well. Atreyu helped her open her gift.

Last week I ordered some fleece fabric to make Atreyu a tractor blanket that didn't have to stay on the bed. The fabric came today and I got the blanket all made. Atreyu was getting upset with me because he wanted to play with it before I was finished. Here he is enjoying his new blanket with some tractors.

We had a very busy weekend but it was so fun to celebrate our little boy's birthday. We love him so much and are so grateful he is a part of our family.
