My Cohen Turns 2!!!!

Where does the time go? I can't believe my baby is 2 today. He is such a blessing in our lives and I feel so blessed to be his mommy. The day started out with having a sleep over at Grandma and Grandpa Bowers house. Including watching Frosty last night and Mickey Mouse pancakes for breakfast. Then came a super fun date with his best friend- his DAD. Steve took Cohen on a carousel ride and then rented a car stroller and let him "drive" around the mall. They had lunch and then Steve took him to Target and let him pick out a truck and his musical birthday card.
Cohen came home after his sleep over to like 20+ balloons and thought that they were totally awesome- In the pictures below you can see he has one in each hand standing next to his big 2 balloon.
He had a party tonight including Grandma and Grandpa Bowers, Rob, Holly and their kids and Heather and Danny. It was quite the wild crowd. It started off with yummy pizza. Followed by breaking open a basketball pinata which Cohen actually didn't like until the candy came out (he was crying because they were breaking his ball). He had a sports ball themed party which he loves balls- any kind and he can name them all for you too. Then it was present time. He is so tired by this point because he decided not to nap today. So he was cranky at the beginning of opening presents until he realized all the fun things he was getting. We got him a table and chairs for his room. He got a hand made quilt and book from Grandma and Grandpa Brough. Coloring stuff and puzzles from my parents and Rob and Holly, games from my sister and brother-in-law. He got lots of cards from other family members. Then it ended with cake and ice cream. My mom made this awesome football cake and basketball and baseball cupcakes- they were soooo cute and soooo yummy. Cohen had a great birthday. Thanks so much to everyone who made his day special. We love you sweet boy- you are such a joy in our lives!!!

Happy Birthday!!! What a good idea to let him pick out his own toy! I'll have to remember that.
