Knox Turns Two

The big day arrived and Knox was ready for it. I sang happy birthday to him when I got him out of bed and he ran to the kitchen screaming "CAKE". I had been working on his soccer ball cake the night before and I guess he was waiting in anticipation. He still had cereal and had to wait until his party; poor thing.

His party was at the park with friends and he had so much fun. They played on the playground, had a soccer ball "game", and ate hamburgers, watermelon, and cake. I don't think Knox ate anything but cake. He had great fun wearing his party hat and digging in.

I can't believe he is already two. It seems like just a few months ago that I brought him home all bundled up in his swaddle. He has grown into such a little person with a big personality. He loves people, especially girls, and he really enjoys animals. He has also entered a boy phase of loving sports, particularly soccer, basketball, and baseball. I don't know if you can count tackling daddy, but he likes that too. He still enjoys books and loves the outdoors. I wonder what he will enjoy a year from now.
