Just over a week ago we celebrated Ty's 2nd Birthday! He is getting so big and Shane and I can't believe that our little baby boy is now a BIG 2 year old! We had a great evening with family. The Rushing's and Dustin's came to help us celebrate.As maybe some of you know I enjoy making cakes for my kids birthdays. Last year for Ty's 1st birthday I didn't make a cake because I was too indecisive about when we should have his party and long story short I bought the cake last minute at Wal-Mart and the sweet lady in the bakery wrote "Happy Birthday TY." So this year I was gonna make a cake! Next step decision time. For the last few months Ty has been alternating between Nemo and Cars. He loves cars and has Shane's old matchbox cars that he plays with endlessly...he even sleeps with them! Also he really loves fish and loves Nemo...so here was my problem. Nemo or Cars? Cars or Nemo?? Well a great wise woman told me to go with the one that had the best decorations! So that is what I did...kinda. I came up with a great idea for a Nemo cake and I just happened to find great decorations to go with it! So the night before I stayed up till about 2am working on that boys cake! (If I was making cakes for the twins...I don't think I would have gone to bed!) So the party was Nemo and thanks to his Aunts/Uncles/Cousins his presents were Cars!! He was so very excited! It was a great Birthday! What more does a 2 year old need huh?
He didn't care about blowing out his candle...he
wanted Nemo!!
Ty is such a sweet, funny, fun loving little boy and here is my tribute to my little boy...
* His talk is not refined and understandable but it sure is cute to listen to his words. Some examples-- "bunny" = funny, "Nanuuuu" = Andrew, "Yahee" = Alli, "Ma Cars" = My cars, "babin" = Open. He can say a few words really well like "mess" which is not a good one to hear! Not because he has a stinky diaper but because he has made a mess somewhere and it is now your job to find it and clean it!
* He loves following Alli and Andrew around! In fact the favorite game in the house is "monster!" Ty is always the monster (he does a good job of it I might add) and Alli and Andrew run around being chased by their little brother!
* He loves his Daddy and loves to watch sports with him!
* He is the best snuggler! He gives you tons of wet slobbery kisses and gives lots of hugs!
* On the other side he loves to hit! He hits and says "ah bunny!!!" Not so funny to his siblings whom we have to remind daily that they are 5 and he is only 2!!
* He is such a spirited little boy and we love having him in our family. There is not a day that goes by that we don't laugh at his silliness or benefit from his sweet hugs!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TY!!!
Note: If you are wondering why...Shane just loves his hair and wont let me cut it off!

He is just adorable...well worth all of that time on the cake. It looked amazing. It was great chatting with you today...we do need to have a 311 reunion.
We love Ty too! Even when he makes messes => Good job on the cake. It was amazing.
What a cute boy! Thanks for sharing his special day with us - the party was great and so was dinner!
I forgot to give a special shout out to Scott! Dinner was great!
Happy birthday Ty! I can't believe he's two! Crazy how fast time goes!
Great job on the cake. Jon makes the cakes in our family and did a fish themed one for Brooklyn's first birthday! Happy Birthday TY!
So cute. Was the cake worth it? Every time I make one for my kids, the mess and stress make me question why I bother...the store bought cakes taste gross though, so that is how i console myself as I clean frosting off the counters for days and days... :) what is this talk of a 311 reunion? i am game! :)
Cute cake for a cute little boy. Our Reese just turned two as well, it makes me sad they grow too fast.
That last picture of Ty is so dang sweet! I just want to bite his little cheek. Happy late b-day Ty. We love you!!
Happy Birthday Ty - he's such a cute little boy...we need to have him over to play again.
I just looked at the cake upclose -I am way impressed.
I just found a great way to keep in touch with you! I can't believe Ty is already 2. Of course, Natalie goes in nursery next month. Your blog is so cute. Keep in touch!
Love the cake! Happy Birthday Ty!! Do you still keep in touch with Hannah?
holy cow julie! lets get posting again!
Hey there! Thanks for the Birthday wishes! I do have to say, life is getting better as I am getting older. I think it's my reward for hanging in there when I could have given up so long ago. I feel better now than I did at 25, life is good at 30 something... and uh... you're not that far behind me sister! ;-) So since we're not too far away, maybe we could bribe Nikola into coming up here and we could all hang out in Couer D'Alene fora day or two.. what do you think? Maybe and early celebration before school starts?
