Jonah turned two yesterday!!! The day started with him discovering his new toddler-sized table and chair from me set up in the living room. The chair is a bit too tall for him so his feet dangle in the air, but he still likes it a lot.

In the afternoon we had guests over. Our party was originally just going to be a family gathering - uncle, aunt, and grandma. But instead twelve guests, including visitors from as far as Oklahoma and California came, and we had a barbecue in our backyard. Jonah had a fabulous time playing with his uncle. He loved the blueberry crumble with whipped cream my mom made in lieu of a birthday cake.

I had a hard time getting Jonah focused on unwrapping presents. He still doesn't get that phenomenon. But he so enjoyed his new gifts - especially the child-sized football and another ball he got from my friend Kyle and his uncle and aunt. He also got a Harley Davidson cap from our friend Mike's dad, fan of all things Harley. Jonah liked wearing the hat. Along with the balls, the other favorite was a wooden train set from my mom. In the middle of Jonah's bedtime routine, he had to get up and go check on the train set yet again. I'll put pictures from yesterday up soon.
