Nick is TWO!

Nicholas turned two on the 16th, although is party was on the 15th. He had a blast at his party! I tried hard and wanted to do a Clifford the Big Red Dog theme, but I fell short. We had his big Clifford dog for the start of decorations, and I made Jello Jigglers in the shape of doggie bones, that were served in a big doggie bowl. That's where it ends, though, sad to say. I knew I was not creative enough to pull off making a Clifford cake, and I could not find a store anywhere that could make one. So, we ended up buying a regular white sheet cake decorated in red, and I wrote "Happy Birthday Nick" in red icing. (I'll post pics later!) It didn't look like I was expecting it to, but it really tasted good, and Nick really enjoyed digging into his THREE pieces!

The birthday boy got lots of goodies. His favorite gift was from us. We bought him a big boy bicycle. Even now, he does not want it outside, so we have a bicycle indoors. He can't figure out quite how to peddle, which helps since it's still inside, but he is so focused on it, I don't think it will be long before he gets that bike moving all around the house!

It's hard to believe that my baby boy is already two years old. Where has the time gone?
