Happy Birthday Levi!

Last weekend we celebrated Levi's 2nd, birthday.  Today is his actual birthday so I thought today would be the perfect day to blog about his party.  Well to start with nothing was going right, first Avery was sick, Levi had a cough, and then Avery gave me whatever it was that she had.  At first I didn't know how I was going to pull it off.  But I did, and I think everyone especially Levi had a good time.

First we opened gifts.  Levi is definitely turning into the typical little kid, tearing the paper open and before he even see's whats inside moving onto the next.  But after a few gifts he started rubbing his eyes and it looked like he was gonna fall asleep before he could finish.  It was really too cute.  

After a little play time with his new toys there was a knock at the door.

ELMO!  Elmo heard it was Levi's birthday and stopped in to say Happy Birthday!

Poor Elmo he must have had a rough journey to our house, he looks a little run down. ;)  And I'm afraid it didn't get much better for Elmo, all the kids were afraid of  him!

  

Avery held Elmo at gunpoint to make sure he behaved himself.

Levi watched as big sissy sat with Elmo but he still wasn't convinced.

Nope, baby Marshall wasn't liking Elmo either.

Ian proved to all the little's that it was okay, see Elmo is nice.

Vera even took at turn.

That all just wasn't enough for Levi, he was not happy that Elmo showed up to crash his party.  So we sent Elmo packing, back to Sesame Street for you Elmo.

On to happier things like cake!  Levi got a great view of his cake from Papa.

All he wanted was the toy on top.

Good food, good cake, great friends & family to celebrate our little man's 2nd birthday, what more could you ask for.

I guess a few more licks of frosting when you think no one is watching.

Whew, until next year.....
