Graidy Turns Two!

November 17, 2010 Graidy woke up and decided he was a 2 year old. He was super ornery and decided to get into everything and anything, not take a nap, and make is Mama cry at McDonald's when he wouldn't get in his car seat. You would think he didn't know it was his birthday! Since he didn't take a nap that day he almost fell asleep on his way to his own party (go figure) but by 6:00 he was running around the club house having a blast with his friends and cousins. I'm so blessed to have this little guy in my life and I can't believe how fast 2 years goes by. Believe it or not but his 2nd birthday wasn't all that emotional for me, I'm happy he is 2 and growing up :)

This year he had a carnival themed party and I think it turned out way cute!
My Mom made the banner and I have to say it is my favorite thing of the whole party!

For the food we did hot dogs, nochos, and all the fixins!
I made a photo booth but wasn't very proactive about getting everyones picture in it but here are a few that turned out way cute!
He got spoiled as usual:

The party was a blast I got from one of the kids "This is the best party ever!" and an other said "I'm not going to be able to sleep tonight!". I loved this party and I love even more that its all over! For the invite and most of the decorations I used a scrapbook kit by Jennifer Barrett and Shalin Studio you find it at Sweet Shoppe Studio. I got a lot of my ideas from Kara's Party Ideas, I visit this blog just about every day.

Couple of New Things:
He tells everyone whose things are whos "That's Brett's hat!" "That's Mama's drink!" "Mine, Graidy's!" For example yesterday my Aunt Sues was patting him on the bum and he yelled at her "Mine, Graidy's spank you!" and swatted her had away. Almost everything is Graidy's and he'll let you know it.

He only calls Brett "Dad or Daddy" on really rare occasions most of the time he is just Brett. Brett got him calling me Kiley yesterday so we'll see how this goes.

He likes to pretend he is a baby, and when we are out he will pass back and forth between us saying "Mama hold you." then to "Brett hold you."

He says "That's amazing" and "Excuse me" and he can form pretty much a whole sentence. He can count to 10 and sing his ABC's to about H. He also sings the "Clean Up" song when I clean the house. He's a pretty smart little bugger and I love him!
