Aaaron's 2nd birthday celebration!

My mom, dad, Amy, Brett, and Claire all came to Chicago to help us celebrate Aaron's 2nd birthday. We had fun filled weekend that included a trip to Chuck E. Cheese, dinner out at the restaurant that Aaron calls his favorite (along with "Old McDonalds" aka McDonalds and Chuck E. Cheese), Smoke Daddy, followed by cake and gifts, and a trip to Pump It Up!

Here are some pics of the cake and presents. Sorry they are all out of order!

A big thanks to Brett for sharing his second birthday cake with us! Brett won a birthday cake on the radio on his birthday, but he already had a birthday cake, so he brought the second one to share with Aaron and the rest of us!


Oops- we didn't have any candles except this "1" candle from Aaron's first birthday!

Do you think that Aaron liked the cake?






Aaron got some really cute monkey stuff (toothbrush holder, soap dispenser, cup, trash can, rug, etc.) for his bathroom. Here he is holding the shower curtain hooks!

Here is the toothbrush holder that got broken right after this photo! Will have to pick up another one of those!

Claire is modeling the gardening/rain books that they got for Aaron.




Brett and Aaron are modeling their England soccer shirts that Karen & Steve sent them for their birthdays. Love em'



Aaron loved the grow kit that Amy and the kids gave him.
