Happy Birthday, Colin!


Happy 2nd Birthday, Colin Matthew!!!
We celebrated Colin's birthday at Gymboree this year. It was a wonderful party. We felt so blessed by the out pouring of family and friends that came to celebrate our sweet boy. Colin had a blast playing, dancing, and running around with his friends and family. There are a ton of pics so bare with me, but I wanted to capture as many moments as possible . . . he had so much fun, I don't want to forget the look on his face!




Colin and his friends Alyssa, he LOVES her :>)




Bubbles! I love these pics :)




The adults even had some fun . . . Oh, POPS!






The birthday boy in the middle of the parachute, he loved this!!!








Getting ready for cupcakes . . .



Happy Birthday to you!


We didn't even have to coach him to blow out the candle, he acted like he had been doing that for years. He is so big!





Colin had Mickey Mouse cupcakes, but his favorite part was the candy Mickeys on top :)



Presents!!!
Colin wanted to get into those as soon as he saw them, so we took a break from playing to unwrap.
Thank you everyone for the very thoughtful gifts, there were many Mickey and Buzz & Woody toys and books!






On Colin's actual birthday, we had a low key family dinner at CiCi's pizza, one of Colin's favorite things to eat :) He once again had the blowing the candle out down pat! He wanted to do over and over again!!!





Sean and I can't believe how fast these 2 years have gone by. It feels like we just brought him home from the hospital. Colin has made our family into a family, he blesses us daily. He is smart and funny, he is sweet and kind, he worries about other people's (animals) feels, he loves to laugh, he 100% boy, running and jumping and playing from the time he wakes up til the time he goes to bed, he is a daddy's boy (there bond is the most precious thing in the world, Colin's face lights up when his daddy comes home or even comes in the room), he is a fast learner, and so many more things. Colin loves Mickey, Buzz & Woody, his paci, and his Bubbas (Bubba and Other Bubba, as he calls them). He sleeps with Bubbas, Buzz & Woody, and Mickey. He snuggles with them and rubs Bubba's ear on his face or pulls Bubba's fur through his fingers :) He is a thinker and super independent. He says and does the funniest things. I am amazed daily at my son! God knew that we needed him and he needed us, we are a perfect match!
Happy Birthday to the biggest blessing in my life, my son, Colin Matthew!

Wow! What a post, Sheena. It brought tears to my eyes. Colin had a special birthday including 4 Grandparents and 5 Great-Grandparents in attendance. That is special. I love all the pictures.
