Today was Benjamin's 2nd birthday. We can't believe how fast he has grown! He is definitely ready to be a big boy. He is so funny and makes us laugh every day. When he woke up this morning, he came into our room, pointed at us and yelled "Monkey"! It's a game we play with him. We'll point and him and yell, "Monkey!" and he'll yell it back. He loved having today be his special day. Yesterday he had a birth family birthday party and had fun with his birthmother Randi. He was so cute and gave her lots of hugs and cuddles. She gave him some really cute clothes, some books and a tracker with animals that he loves!

Today we had a birthday party with his grandparents in Boise. Of course he loves all the attention that comes with his grandparents! Unfortunately he had a big crash right before dinner and has a big goose egg on his forehead. Poor kid! The crash was all forgotten once it was time for presents. He was extremely spoiled. He got a bowling game, a bunch of clothes, a light saber, a sprinkler toy, a sleeping bag, a puzzle, and the cutest apron a friend made for him for us. We also got him the Leap Frog alphabet toy for the refrigerator. Overall, he is a spoiled little guy! Britton was really excited for all of Benjamin's toys and thought Benjamin's birthday was pretty great too. He was very good at letting Benjamin open his own presents and letting it be his day. It's hard to believe that Benjamin is two. We sure love that little guy!
