We just finished celebrating Lukes second birthday. It was an extended celebration because it was Thursday before Easter we had to wait til the next weekend to have the party. We spent Easter weekend in Winkler with family. When we got back we gave him his birthday present from us- a tricycle. We had lots of fun putting it together with our little helpers.
This is the Fire Truck cake I made. I really like the way it turned out. It wasnt even that hard. Required a lot of icing though. I think I made 3.5 recipes of buttercream!.
The celebrations finally ended this weekend with a Fire Truck party Saturday morning. We had 7 boys between the ages of 3 and 18 months in the house. It was a lot of fun!
I found that this birthday was a lot easier to take than his first. Last year the memories were still too fresh from his birth and the first couple of weeks of his life. It was still on my mind this year but more in the terms of how thankful I am for how God has carried us through the past two years. It has been really crazy at times but he has been faithful!
So now that birthday season has ended we look forward to the birth of our neephew (niece or nephew) at the end of May and Naths sisters wedding at the end of June. The boys are the ring bearers!
