The Birthday Celebrations...

We had such fun celebrating Connor's 2nd birthday. The weekend before his birthday we went to the North Carolina Museum of Trains. Connor loves trains so you can imagine his excitement at seeing a huge electric train set up in the middle of a field. We watched the trains go around the track for awhile then headed over to the train for the hour-long ride we would be taking.

Both Connor and Andrew had a blast hanging out the 'windows' and watching the scenery go by!

On the day of his birthday, Connor woke up from his nap and opened the mail. He was so excited to find birthday cards!

He was SO excited about his cards that he wanted to hang them up on our front door.

Then, he wanted some alone time so he could read the cards himself.

That night we had cake - carrot cake with cream cheese icing. Yum!

Then, he opened his gifts!

He loved them!

During the festivities, Tayza was banished outside and Andrew looked on longingly...

Happy 2nd Birthday Connor!
