Liam ist zwei Jahre alt!

It really feels like his birthday is still going on, because that's how we like to celebrate, but Liam officially hit the big 0-2 Friday 24 Feb and did so in style.  We kept the celebration low-key and had a family dinner Friday night, complete with homemade carrot cake (same as last year -- well, not THE same cake... that would be disgusting), and we rounded out the evening by watching one of Liam's new Kung Fu Panda movies and playing with his new Kung Fu Panda wrestler.

On Saturday we had some friends over for dinner, more birthday cake, and then a Beer Pong Tournament in honor of the young man.  Unfortunately, Liam was too tired to play, but we sure made him proud!

Well, not I, as I supremely sucked.

Birthday morning at playgroup, with some fabulous
Army mommies and kiddos!

"I've never seen an empty balloon. How interesting."

"Okay, I can do this.  No pressure..."

"Woo!  I can make a balloon!"

Morning after the bday -- rocking it out on a fab little hand-me-down
from Uncle Mike and Aunt Ryanne

Two years and one day makes for a tired little man!

We weren't able to capture his eating of the cake on video this year (remember this bit of awesomeness?), mainly because we were having too much fun eating it with him.  But here's a video of some of the festivities.  He's so grown up now!
