Reid Turns 2!!

TWO?!?  Since Reid was/is an Easter baby we had a good ol' fashioned Easter Egg Hunt at our house for his birthday.  We invited a few friends, all whom have kids born within weeks of both Connor and Reid.

 The little kids ready for their hunt!
 And the big kids lined up ready for their turn!
Uncle Jason volunteered to help get Reid dressed before the party.  Uh...that didn't exactly go as planned.  Reid's expression here is just as silly as his clothes!!
 Way to go, Uncle Jason!!
 MeMaw eating with the boys
 The bunny cake mom and I made.  Mom made this same cake for me when I was a baby!
 Can't have a party without the peeps!

 The bunny cup for the utensils.
 Blowing out the candles.  You can see Connor doing the "blowing" motion but was told he could not help!

The best attempt at a family picture
 Reid looks as if he's liking the cake, but instead opts for the...
 PEEP!  I think the kids liked those more than the cake!
 Showing me that he is TWO!
 Here are a few (failed) attempts at getting 8 kids under the age of 4 to put on a mask and all smile at the camera.  Take One...
 Take Two...
 Take Three...
And forget it.  I'm outta here!
 Waiting to open the presents
 Reid always gravitates toward trucks & tractors wherever we go.  He can never have enough of those!
Trying to ride his tricycle
You can see Josh holding Connor back because he wanted sooo badly to show Reid how to ride.
 Big brother telling him exactly what to do
Finally!!
 Loving on his new pillow pet
 Showing off the cool, LOUD piano given to him by none other than...
 This guy! Uncle Jason always wins the award for the coolest, loudest gifts!
 After the party.  Going...
 Going...
 Gone!
Turning 2 is a lot of hard work.  Thanks to everyone who came out to celebrate with us.  And a big thanks to Paw Paw, Papa Jud and Uncle Jason for all the setup and tear down and to Mimi for, well, everything!

Two year old check up coming up next!
