Clayton turned 2 today. It was sad and unnerving at the same time. Sad because my baby is 2! Unnerving because in 2 months I'll have another baby, the time has gone by so fast. Today we went to Wingers with my parents for lunch for Clay's birthday. We had a coupon for a free kids meal for his birthday. Well Clay got a HUGE piece of ice cream pie too and then they tried to put a chicken hat on his head and he was so mad! He didn't even care that he got dessert, he just wanted to color. Lizzie meanwhile was pouting because she wanted to get sung to and have the chicken hat.
We celebrated Clay's birthday on Tuesday the 2nd. James' parents where here so we moved our little celebration so they could participate. Clayton loves the movie "Cars" and Lightning McQueen, so that's the kind of cake I did for him. I was a little lazy this time around (lets chalk it up to being 8 months pregnant shall we) and just got a cake topper from a bakery and made the cake myself. I really didn't want to try to sculpt a car out of cake at this point. Clay loved it and once he saw it he was systematically going from person to person to see if he could get on the table to the cake.

Then the singing and candles. Clay didn't want any of it, he wanted that McQueen car off the cake. My Dad moved the cake out of reach since Clay was getting close to the candles and that made Clay so mad he didn't even try to blow out the candles. Lizzie of course was more than happy to help.
Clay enjoyed the cake and ice cream and asked for "more" several times. He's talking a lot now.
He enjoyed the presents. He got distracted easily though and now I'm thinking I probably bought him too much for Christmas again this year. Oh well we'll open presents in shifts if we have to. He did enjoy trying to get the paper off the presents though and Lizzie of course was the willing helper here too.
He had a wonderful birthday and was spoiled rotten! Lizzie and Clay have been fighting over the toys since Tuesday so it's been an interesting week.
