Happy Birthday You!

I mean ME! I turned the big 2 today and boy was I excited! I woke up saying "Happy Birthday You" because my parents keep singing "...happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you..." I also have a book called Happy Birthday Baby and I've been reading that lots lately. In fact I told mom this morning that we needed to go to the store to get streamers, balloons and party hats because that's what they had in the book.
We had a small party today with just Mom, Dad, Zeke, Nana and Papa. (On Saturday more family will be coming over.) We had my favorite Chinese Food for dinner, then we had birthday cake (sugar free of course) and then we opened presents. I would have been happy having everyone sing for me and blowing out the candle all night. (The video is probably the 10th time we did it. Even after we ate the cake I wanted to blow out the candle some more.) I kept asking dad to light the candle again and again and again!
Here are some picture highlights. I got some really great presents including lots of balloons (I've been into those lately ever since "Santa Claus" gave me one at the dentist's office), a school bus with letters and numbers, books, a blanket, a couple of cars, and probably the best (although I'm not sure because Dad needs to put it together still): a real tricycle equipped with a Mountain Dew helmet thanks to my Ma and Pa! Those pictures will have to come later because before we could play, it was bedtime. I sure can get used to this birthday thing!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY JONAH! Balloons, streamers, cake, presents, my goodness life is good. you and I have a lot in common...love for balloons and blowing out candles. Before I go to a birthday party mom always lets me blow out a candle at home because she didn't like how sad I looked when I didn't get to blow the candle out at the party.
