Dear Adam

Our little man, you are two today. We can't believe that it has gone that fast and these last two years have been the funnest in our lives so far! We have loved to watch you grow and learn! Here are a few things that we love best about you!

We Love...

that you readily hand out hugs and kisses

that Dad is your best friend and that you ask for him all day everyday

how sensitive and caring you are about others

that you weigh 36 pounds and are built like a rock

that you love airplanes so much that you stop anything and everything you're doing to look up and find them.

that you love animals so much

that you toot and think it's hilarious

when you want us to read book after book to you

how much you love to color

your special giggle when you are getting into trouble or running from us

that you politely knock on your door for us to let you out when you wake up

when you scream hysterically when we turn in any direction other than the two routes to either grandparents houses

that you are such a good eater and sleeper

that you care about others when they are sad or upset

that you insist on helping with the laundry or dishes

when you steal our spots when we get up to get something

your shy face

that you try to get our attention to make funny faces to make us laugh

that you constantly want us to build you forts out of blankets

that you love slides, swings, and trampolines

that you love to rough house

that all you want is to be outside

that you pretend to be blind with your squinty eyes and run into us

when you make us rub your feet

when you get mom's glasses for her out of the bathroom on saturday mornings when you think its time for us to get up

that you can be so incredibly stubborn

We love that you are such a good little boy!!!

Tonight we had a little party with our families over, it was great even though we were squished inside our little apartment. Adam came away with so many awesome gifts I think he will be set until Christmas!



A birthday dinner of hotdogs, yum!



Adam was too busy playing and I had to help him open his presents to keep his attention



I just want to gobble up his cute face, he was so excited when he saw Matt bringing in his cake and candles



We do know how to count, Adam loves blowing out candles so much we just put a couple extra on there.

Happy Birthday Adam!!

That picture of him smiling when the cake is coming out is so adorable. I love it. I am glad it turned out well. I can't believe he is two! Wow!

Adam is so dang cute! Plus I love when little boys are built solid....they seem so much more boyish (if that makes sense). Happy birthday Adam!

P.S. Jordan just lives in Eden in my parents house.

What a cute idea. You are a great mom to love him being stubborn. I can't believe he is two. It will be so fun for him to have a new baby. You are getting closer, hang in there!!
