Guess who's 2?...

RYKEN is! I really can't believe that I am the mom of a 2 year old. Our little guy turned 2 on the 24th. (i know i am bad and haven't had a chance to blog bout it, so sue me. : ) ) I was pretty sad that we weren't going to be able to really have a party for him this year like we did last year but with our new little one and other family stuff going on it wasn't able to happen. So instead we just got together with our great friends Kameron,Gina, Porter and Anastyn Lee. It was all kinda last minute but we went to Jeepers for a little fun for the boys and some pizza too. And it turned out to be a pretty fun time.
Here is the happy little 2 year old! The daddy's took the boys on the little roller coaster there. Boy does that thing go faster than I expected. (us moms took the boys first,and laughed the whole time cause we weren't expecting it to be so fast. )


Ryken's face when he was on the roller coaster with me. : ) He really seemed to like it, I was kinda surprised. Ryken and Porter using a little team work to make some baskets and smash some silly spiders. : )And of course the big boys had to have a little fun too. They got to play on the little bumper cars while we watched and laughed along with them.

After we hung out there for a few hours we made our way over to Justin's parents house and had a little cake there and Ryken got to open a few presents too.

He was being shy when we sang to him, but he sure was excited to blow out the candle once we got done singing. : )

The next day we decided to do a little something at home for him too. It was just our little family of 4 that day. And he opened up more presents from us and also had some more cake.

Once again so happy for himself after he blew out the candle on his very plain but very yummy birthday cake at home. : ) We didn't really get to take a family picture that day but we got the second best thing... Justin and I each got our picture taken with 2 of the cutest little boys we know!

Ryken turned 2 and Cy was 2 weeks old that day. : ) Kind of a fun day!

We also got to spend some time up in Woodruff with Grandma and Grandpa Baker and had another birthday celebration up there for him too. So all in all I guess he had a pretty great birthday even if we didn't plan out an actual birthday party for him.

That was a fun day! And ever since every time Porter sees a birthday cake or a balloon he says "Ryen's Birfday?" haha. Those boys are just way too cute together!! I guess Porter and Ryken are pretty cute together too! haha.

I would say that was a great birthday!! He looks so adorable, especially in that first picture with his big grin. Yes, the more cake, the better. I think he is starting to look more like his Dad as he gets older. Happy Birthday Ryken!!
