Can You Believe He's Two?



My baby isn't a baby anymore! I love watching Porter grow and change, but it just happens too fast. Slow down time!!! My kids will be in school before I know it and then...lets not even think about anything past that!

Porters party was a little difficult for me to plan. I wanted family to come and celebrate with us more than anything - nothing else really mattered to me. Maybe that thought about distance making the heart grow fonder really is true. Being away has given me the opportunity to contemplate what family means to me.
We invited some friends from Alans work to celebrate with us. I made an extra sheet cake (top) just so we would have enough for everyone. The cars were really fun to make - but I am definitely an amateur cake maker! Porter may not have been quite sure what was going on when we were all singing to him, but he proudly blew out his candles very well. One little puff and the first candle was out, then another and the second was out!!
For his birthday we bought a wagon (more for mom and dad), and some tools just for porter. He was completely content! It was a nice laid back celebration. I'm just happy we have so many friends here in Georgia to help support us!

I can't believe that he is already two. He was just a baby when I saw him last!!
