Celebrating Grady, the two year old!

This year, we decided to take Grady's birthday party out of the house.  He is one busy boy and he needed one active party to celebrate turning two.  We headed to a little gym for the party with a few friends.  I liked this party because it fit Grady's personality but it felt a little funny to keep it so simple on my end.  BUT I loved not having the house preparation and I really got to enjoy the party with Grady and Layla!! 

And Grady had a blast so that was great.  He was one busy and happy boy.  Perfect!

  Present time!  This fun latch board was made by my friend Stephanie and her husband Adam.

My favorite part of the day, parachute time!

 

A lot of times when Grady plays with the bigger kids, he ends up being "assigned" to play the lion or bear in pretend play games.  I think it is so funny when he embraces this role :)

Grady's shirt was simple to make, just a bit time-consuming to sew around the letters and number.  Hobby Lobby actually had little shirts without pockets on the front.  Those plain white shirts are tough to find for little boys.  The front of Grady's shirt said, "T-W-O."

Grady was pretty cute with his birthday cupcake.  He smiled and looked around at everyone singing during the happy birthday song and then he blew out both candles at once.  And he didn't touch the candles!  Sweet!

More birthday fun!
