Happy Birthday to Nate!

Our little munchkin turned two today!

Nate's day started pretty well - Blueberry waffles on his Birthday Plate. I tried to get him to wear his hat, but that didn't turn out so well.

Then, his mean ol' mommy decided to schedule his 2 yr check up on his actual birthday...I figured, there were no shots due, could it really be that bad? Well, he did not enjoy it...he had to have his finger pricked to check his Iron (which is - not suprisingly - low, considering he has decided to become a vegetarian), the purple band-aid they put on afterwards made it even worse, and then they had the nerve to check his hearing and vision...he was not happy about any of it. But, he survived it all and we treated him to a smoothie afterwards to make it up to him. His birthday party is on Saturday, but we still felt like we wanted to do something fun since today was his actual his bday (yes, we know he wouldn't have known the difference) so we decided to take him to Chuck E Cheese for dinner. This was his first time so it was like toddler heaven to him - lights, music, games, kids, pizza, prizes - he ran from one thing to the next the whole time we were there. He liked riding the little rides, and he even tried skeeball (that was a little dangerous) but his favorite was hitting the moles - he thought that was hysterical. Somehow we managed to not bring the camera along, so all I have are some shots taken with the phone...here is Nate and Barney:

Happy Birthday to our little Nate the Great!
