As soon as Connor woke up, Cole and I headed in to his room with his Thomas balloon singing Happy Birthday. We had been talking about him having a birthday all week so I think he knew it was coming. After he had a minute to wake up there were smiles all over his face! He knew it was a special day. :)
We started the day with his favorite breakfast- pancakes.
After having some fun time playing with my 2 year old at home we headed to Mimi's pool for a swim. We ended the morning with a picnic lunch and then went back home for Connor to take a nap.
Later that evening Nana, Poppa, Aunt Amy, Kate, and Mimi all came over for burgers and cake. We wanted to have a small family celebration on Connor's actual birthday since his party was not until Saturday. I decided to let the kids sit at Connor's table for dinner. We weren't sure how it would turn out, but they did great!
After dinner we had cake and ice cream. Connor is still in love with Thomas the Train so I ordered a cake with Thomas on it and he LOVED it!

Having fun with his grandparents
He was not so sure about eating the cake at first. He kept offering everyone else bites of it until finally he decided it was ok to try.

Connor also was able to open some of his presents. He got so many fun new things!
Looking back at these pictures I still can't believe that my baby boy is 2!
Pictures from the party up next!
