Turning Two

My baby Lincoln turned TWO today!  Lincoln's current favorite cartoon has been The Dinosaur Train. He is always carrying around at least one of his dinosaurs and constantly roaring at everyone. On Friday we took him to the Smithsonian Museum in DC to see all the dinosaur fossils and he loved it! He would repeatedly shout "ah-saur! ah-saur!" which is his way of saying dinosaur. Today Chris and I took the kids to the park to celebrate a little and let them burn off some of that energy. (Is there ever nice weather on the East Coast!?!) He was so red and drenched in sweat but he had a blast running around! Ella is also a little adventure seeker and she was climbing up on everything. Once he got a little worn out, we sang to him and gave him his cake. He loved the dinosaur cake, once again shouting "ah-saur! ah-saur!" I also made some yummy fossil cupcakes and a little birthday banner for him. On our drive home both kids knocked out, and there is nothing more I'd like to do than take a long nap too!

 

"ah-saur!"
