Joey is TWO

 Joey turned two today.  TWO.

We started his birthday with a special breakfast of pancakes with blue & green sprinkles on top.  I think pancakes with sprinkles is our new tradition because we did that for Charlie too.  Unfortunately I couldn't find any candles, but maybe that was a good thing.

Charlie and I sang Happy Birthday to Joey and he loved it.

For lunch we went to Arctic Circle with Uncle Trent.  We love that play place.

Joey gave ME a birthday present this afternoon...he actually took a nap!  He stopped napping once we moved so this was a big deal.  It's a good thing he got some extra rest because we were having a little family dinner that night.

It was so great having a FAMILY party.  What a treat to be near family again.  We had a big hot dog bar (thanks Shannon for doing that for Jonas-it left an impression on us), watermelon, chips, snow cones & cupcakes.  Joey honestly had cheetos, a cupcake & snow cone for dinner.  I'm cringing at the thought of it, but hey, only on your birthday, right?

Having two "Brittany's" in the family isn't confusing at all ;)

Not everyone is pictured in these photos, but I appreciate everyone for coming.

 Joey got some really great gifts.  New toys are so exciting!  Charlie "helped" Joey open all of his presents and blow out the candles.  It's rough being the little brother.

 

Nana made chocolate cupcakes with chocolate frosting and a matchbox truck on top.  Is that perfect or what?

 Can you tell he liked it?

 Happy Birthday!!!  

We love you, Joey!!!
