K's Birthday Part 2

We celebrated Kellen's birthday a few days early, so when the actual day rolled around, we decided to have a little ice cream party with two of Kellen's friends, Gavin and Olivia (or as Kellen calls her, ee-ya). Kellen LOVED his strawberry ice cream cone and is still talking today about his "special treat".

These are pics of Kellen enjoying one of his birthday presents from mom and dad, a wagon! This wagon has it all- cup holder, compartment for his toys, and a seat belt! Certainly not like how they used to make 'em! (or so I am told)

Deuces WILD







We celebrated Mr. Kellen's 2nd Birthday with family this weekend and lucked out with some beautiful weather. Em and I got the festivities started by making limited edition birthday tee-shirts to commemorate the day. Kellen got his own special tee, which elicited a couple 'happy birthday!''s from strangers.
We packed a cooler with lunches, drinks and some treats (animal crackers are awesome!) and headed to the Bronx Zoo for the day. Kellen enjoyed seeing all the animals with one minor exception: the sea lion got a little too close for his comfort.
Our perfect day was topped off with BBQ, cake and presents back at our house. We did some really good eating for dinner (to be expected!) and Emilie stayed up late with Zach, Jill and me (not going to bed until 11 o'clock!!!). Kellen now has a nice set of wheels in the new wagon his Mom and Dad got him. It'll be perfect for some pumpkin picking in the next week.
