Barrett Family Fun: Tynan's 2nd Birthday!

I can't believe that my little boy is already 2, where oh where did the last year go. I love seeing the child excitement in him over any and everything. Some of his favorites this year include the following.

Movies: Chipwrecked, Finding Nemo, and Alpha and Omega

Food: Chicken Nuggets and Ice cream

Drink: Milk, Milk, and more Milk!

Activities: Playing with cars, choo choos, balls, reading/looking at books, arts and crafts projects, playing outside, anything messy or dirty, playgrounds (especially slides).

Other Important Info: Tynan is in love with buses, especially school buses. Every morning Jeff has to make sure that they see the kids getting on the school bus before they can go into daycare, this proved very challenging during winter/spring break. Tynan became a big brother this year and is doing a really good job at it. He is very helpful, he will always pick up an item if you ask him, gives great hugs and kisses, and learning many new words this year.

I am very fortunate that I was able to celebrate Tynan's birthday with him again this year, below you will find out how we spent the day.

I love birthdays, I am always trying to find new ways to make them unique and special. This is what I did to Tynan's door before I went to bed.

Tynan loved the balloon surprise, but wasn't too sure of the crepe paper.

Finally he decided to break through.

After breaking free, he thought it was really fun to play with the balloons and run back and forth through his door.

Jeff was still home so Tynan was able to open his presents this morning. He had a pile of presents and moved all of the small ones to go right for the big present on the bottom of the pile, yep that's my boy!

Couldn't get a 2 year picture without a school bus in it.

After presents and saying goodbye to daddy for work. Easton and I took Tynan to the Children's museum to celebrate and have some fun.

Of course in a shopping cart with all that food Tynan would find an apple, he loves apples.

Look how serious he is riding on the fake city bus, but a bus is a bus.

Now this is Tynan's heaven, driving the bus, he was so excited and was such a good boy waiting for his turn. He even left the bus and returned many times since the line was so long at times.

Water / bug play

Easton just hanging out letting brother have a good day.

Tynan was eating a chocolate chip muffin and got mad that I broke it in pieces so during a little fit he had he ended up rubbing it all over his face.

Another favorite activity feeding the piggy bank (too bad it wasn't his)

Ahoy!

Such concentration. I was very impressed that he let us get through the entire birthday song before trying to blow out the candles. Then as soon as the song was over he started to blow them out without being told. I was impressed since we really haven't seen a lot of birthday parties.
