Karston is 2!!!

Well it has happened. My baby turned 2 this last week. I can't believe how quickly time flies. It truly does not feel like he should be 2 already. Karston is starting into his terrible two's which to be honest hasn't been all that horrible yet. He has his moments, but for the most part he is still a VERY good boy. Here are some facts about this 2 year old:
1. He still loves to play with your ears except he only does this now when he is tired.
2. He loves to help mom clean or really help with whatever she is doing.
3. He loves to dance.
4. He loves to learn. He is now doing sign language and gets very proud of himself when he learns a new sign.
5. He loves to build with blocks.
6. He is my little professor always studying and trying to figure out how EVERYTHING works. Much like his dad!
7. He has the cutest smile, and the sweetest little giggle.
8. He loves to eat especially healthy stuff that both mom and dad don't like. He will walk around with a stalk of lettuce in his mouth for his afternoon snack. Nothing on it just plain lettuce! He especially LOVES his chocolate milk in the morning.
9. He loves doing things with his dad and grandpa's. Especially when it comes to doing outside stuff like mowing the lawn, using an air compressor or whatever!
10. He likes to snuggle at night.
11. He always looks out for his mom. Especially when I am not feeling well. He brings me a garbage can and imitates what you do in it (even though I am not puky sick), rubs my back
and my feet, and tells me he loves me all the time!
12. He loves electronics, and puzzles, and he LOVES LOVES LOVES doing his ABC'S and 123's.
13. I can't even begin to describe his love and passion for 1 thing and that would be MICKEY MOUSE! We would be lost without the infamous Mickey Mouse, which brings us to his birthday party!

These were our decorations. My friend Erin helped me make the poster Mickey Mouse heads because I can't draw at all! So Thank you Erin I appreciate your help! We wrote a poem that went along with his pictures from the past year which said:
"When I was 1 I had lots of fun! I played in the sand, talked on the phone, I played in my puddle, and LOVED family huddles! I played in the leaves... I camped in the trees. I fell in the Tub, MAN I am a stud! I played in the snow with mom and dad. I hope no one finds out how much fun I had. I watched Mickey Mouse and played in the park. I destroyed the house from noon until dark! Who knew this life could be SOOOOOO fun... LOOK OUT 2 cause HERE I COME! If you could see the picture the words went to it would make a lot more sense. Just know that what we said described each picture VERY well!




All of my cute friends minus Brooklyn, and Brody who weren't too interested in being photographed! There was Nina, Tippy, Kaecen, Karston enjoying a yummy Mickey Mouse cup cake!

Karston's personal cake! Thanks Erin and Kelli for your help on that! I as always was running a little behind so they helped frost the cake! I did however put the candles on if that counts!!!

All my mickey mouse cupcakes! We had chocolate, white, and purple cake!!!Purple was supposed to be red actually, but ended up with purple so oh well!


It was a great party and Karston had A LOT of fun! We just have to work on sharing the new toys now!!! We love you so much Karston. Our lives have been richly blessed since you became a part of it. I am so grateful to be able to stay home with you every day and see every new thing you do or discover. You bring such a sweet spirit to our home and we miss you so much when for some reason or another your not there. Thanks for always taking such good care of your momma. I love you with all my heart and can't wait to see what new adventures your 2nd year will bring for you, me, daddy and Baby Jayden!!!!! Love you baby boy! I hope you had a very HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
