Seahawks!

We took Chad to his second ever Seahawks game on Saturday. The only other Hawks game he has been to, he was about 6 weeks old. He loved it! He kept yelling "go seahawks!" even after we were home and he was in bed, it was 10:45 and he was in bed yelling "go seahawks". He was really well behaved as usual at the game and had a blast!

Chad's 2 year Birthday Bash

Chad's latest obsession is hotwheels cars, I think after his birthday he has PLENTY!
Aunt Kristine made some amazing handmade, one of a kind decorations for his party!

Blowing out the candle on his Mickey Mouse Club House cake!

Everyone singing to him made him a little uncomfortable.

96 degrees is mighty hot for an outdoor bbq! Notice the sweat!

The Mickey Mouse Club House Cake I made for my little man!

On August 15th 2010 our little boy turned 2 years old. I can't even describe how quickly the last two years have gone by. I never knew how precious the years are until they have all of a sudden disappeard and my baby is no more, and this little boy is running around me shoving rocks and cars in his pockets and watching football and baseball and hockey with his daddy. I know every parent says that their child is smarter than most and that they are truly the best there is, but I know in our case, it's true! ;) We have hit the jackpot with this little boy we are honored to call our son. I hope the next two years don't go by nearly as fast!

I realize I have been HORRIBLE about keeping our blog loaded with new pics of our little man, I can't believe he will be 2 on Sunday... I promise to post more frequently. He is talking so much, he can pretty much say any word you ask him to, or at least attempt it. He picks up on everything, and is so smart (yes, I know every mommy says that, but with my kiddo it's true!) ;) We love him so much and can't believe the little person he has become. Thank you again to my sister Heather for taking amazing pictures for us to cherish forever.

Spring/Summer fun!

Mariners game, 5/2/10 watching our friend Doug Fister pitch!

On Sunday we had a great family outing to the Mariners game to watch our friend Doug pitch against the Rangers! Doug pitched great! Chad loved watching the game and yelling "basehaball!" He was so good during the game, cheering, clapping and yelling "go Dougie!" He finally zonked out in the 9th inning!

Chad loves his Slide!

"weeeeeee"
when he gets to this point he always says "stuck!"

Chad's visit to the lake!

Chad met a new friend at the lake, he would run up and say "Hi Duck!" then the duck would get closer, and he would run away and say "Bye Duck!" The duck had no fear of him! I was a little worried he would get nibbled! When the duck would flap his wings Chad would yell "Oh NO!" He had a lot of fun!
Taking in the scenery!
