Today my little guy turned Number Two. And as every mother says, I honestly can't believe how the time has flown. Did he really look like this, just two years ago? What a boy you've become Owen! And though not quite as organized as his UNO birthday last year, today we celebrated our No.2 with a pencil cake: We colored with pencils and crayons, made a trip to the McDonald's playplace, and just hung around the house. And we discovered something new today. Miss Lucy didn't enjoy someone else hogging the camera spotlight. So she kept creeping into my photos. I guess it's time for a Lucy photo shoot.... Owen's yellow pants you'll recognize. But I wish I could take credit for his cute shirt. I can't! I got it for free a few years ago at a boutique giveaway and it's made by these cool people. Happy Birthday Owen. We're glad you're our No. 2! And in keeping with the theme, I leave you with The Dancing Pencil (just so you know what an idiot I am). From Halloween four years ago when our family was Back to School Night:
happy birthday Owen!! you must have had a wonderful, colourful 2 years in this world with such a creative momma, what a lucky boy you are! and dana, he's so handsome, you must be so proud of him :)
Adorable! And loving the birthday party theme--I saw someone a couple years ago who threw a Hawaiian Two-au for her daughter's second, and we loved that, but this one is so simple and clever that I love it even more! We'll have to get cracking if we want to think of something fun: by the time #3 gets here, I might not have enough brain cells left to plan anything very exciting for poor O, the forgotten middle child...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!! he's too cute! and little lucy is too. i have a lot of pictures with my #1 trying to get in there whenever i take someone else's picture. must be a #1 thing.
Happy Birthday to a such a handsome boy Owen!Wishing you a very awesome year to come! Mommy you look great in anything! The pencil costume and the cake is to die for:)
You are too much! The pencil cake is brilliant. Did you make it? Just say no! And then the shirt, fer reals! He's an adorable two year and Lucy is the perfect big sister. Little brothers should never get too much camera time. Enjoy that little guy, he'll be 3 before you know it!
Hi fun people and thanks for the Owen bday wishes! * yep, I actually did make the cake. And the frosting was soooo yummy; I felt sick last night from eating too much. * there's a link to the shirt in the post. I'm not sure if the company sells online (mine was actually a freebie - love those!) I'm sure there's a way to contact them on the site.
Wow. That is awesome. I'm going to have to start stealing your birthday themes. We keep doing Toy Story over and over again. It might be getting old. So come May do you mind if my Links has a little #2 pencil going on? By the way, I LOVE Owen's shirt. And the dancing, of course.
