As cliche as it sounds, it does seem like just yesterday. At this time two years ago we were actually all at the hospital anxiously awaiting his arrival. He is officially two at 11:23 pm!Just one year ago...
I'm not exactly sure of his stats, but we go to see the doctor on Monday for his two year old check up. I will update the blog again then! The party is the fun part anyway...right? Here are the many pictures from today's special event.
The decor...We (I say we...my mom planned most of this as I wasn't sure how much I would be able to do with a brand new baby. I just help set up) went with the baseball theme.
The spread
All the yummy snacks...
Baseball pops (white chocolate covered oreos)
Cracker jacks
Sunflower seeds
Popcorn
The cake (cupcakes)...made by Teresa (Cody's mom)
We also had baseball favorites: hot dogs and nachos (not pictured!) Thanks to Dada for grilling them up!The guests...Having a newborn we decided to have a "family only" party, but I think it was just the right size.
Danica (Matt's girlfriend) and Matt (Cody's brother)
Lala (Cody's mom) and Poppy (Cody's dad)
Gramps (Hudson's great grandpa) and Nanny (Hudson's great-grandma)

Hudson LOVED us all singing Happy Birthday to him. He loves to be the center of attention and this was just perfect for him! Especially since we have had a little girl sneak in that has been the center of attention here lately.
He also loved the Twizzlers! So much that he didn't even want to try the cupcake. I hate to tell him that he missed out there. They were yummy!
Poppy trying to convince him how good the cupcakes are.
Hudson telling him Twizzlers are better!
You never can be too safe with Twizzlers!
Outdoor fun...
We love our little boy SO much and can't wait to see what this next year will bring!
