Birthday Part 3

The afternoon part of Rhodes' birthday was spent playing in the pool. Kenadie and Rhodes had a great time playing in the water together while Drew was cooking our yummy supper.

Family Time

We were so excited to have Brett, Cathy, and Kenadie come spend the weekend with us. Rhodes and Kenadie always have such a great time playing together, when they are together we get a little glimpse of what it would be like to have twins......very tiring! We had such a great time celebrating Rhodes' birthday with them.

Birthday Part 2

What better way to celebrate your 2nd birthday than to have lunch at Taco Bueno! Bueno is a family favorite so we felt it would be the perfect place for a birthday lunch. Brett and Cathy were also wanting Bueno since they don't have one in Alabama.

Birthday Part 1

The birthday festivities took place all day for this special little 2 year old. The birthday morning started off with a breakfast full of fruit and waffles. After fueling up on food it was off to paint. Kenadie and Rhodes painted pictures frames that will hold a picture of the two of them together from this weekend.


Let the painting begin. They were really good painters and didn't make too much of a mess.

Got a little paint on his chest and mouth.

The Cake

The most important part of the birthday party is the yummy cake. Rhodes loves the Backyardigans so we thought it would be an appropriate cake theme for his 2nd birthday. The cake not only looked great but tasted great too.

Happy 2nd Birthday!

We just celebrated Rhodes' 2nd birthday. We feel like rock star parents for picking out this awesome tricycle for him. He has spent every free second on it and loves it! We had a great weekend celebrating and playing with Brett, Cathy, and Kenadie and were sad to see them leave and head back home. The little cousins had a blast playing together.

Happy Birthday Daddy!

Happy Birthday Daddy! We celebrated by eating at Crazy Hibachi. We were unsure of how Rhodes would behave since he is going through a not wanting to sit quietly stage right now. The chefs were so entertaining and the fire kept his attention until food was put on his plate. He even ate sushi (avocado roll) for the first time and loved it. It was a wonderful time as a family celebrating the life of a sweet daddy.

Dog Kennel

Rhodes loved getting in and out of the dog kennel at GiGi and PaPa's house. He was constantly in and out of it having the best time.



snack time is better when you are inside the dog kennel

Sprinkler Fun


Since the temperature has been beyond hot we haven't been able to play outside much. The grass needed to be watered and this little guy needed to run off some energy. He had a great time playing with his new sprinkler toy.
