Austin's 2nd Birthday :)

This past weekend we celebrated Austin's 2nd Birthday, which brought the bittersweet realization that my baby isn't a baby anymore :(  I know some people still consider 2 years old to be a baby, but he is so grown up lately.  I literally dropped him off at daycare as an infant one day, and the next he was spitting out three word sentences.  He is playing with the older kids, and doing a pretty good job of keeping up!  He is my little jokester and has such a unique personality that will keep you laughing for hours.  I love this little guy so much!!  He loves monkeys, so my friend Lisa and I created a monkey birthday party pack (which can be purchased here at our Etsy shop).  It turned out awesome and everyone had a great time.  I wasn't able to take as many photos as I wanted, I guess because I was the hostess, lol.  Now I realize why you hire a photographer for your wedding, as opposed to taking the photos yourself....it's hard to participate all at once.  Austin wasn't too keen on hitting the piñata, but it didn't take Alex long to step up and give it a good whack.  Oh my goodness, how could I forget, Austin had a special guest too....AUNT NATALIE!!! She flew in from NY and surprised us!! Well more me than anyone else, but it was great to have her there and spend some good quality time with the kiddos.  Austin got some great gifts and we are so thankful to have such great family and friends that love us as much as they do.  The pics I could take are posted below.  Check out Austin's t-shirt, LOVE IT!! My little monkey boy.....
