A Celebration for Sam!



Sam's birthday celebrating started off with a bang when he opened his Mickey Mouse Clubhouse toy.  He shrieked "GOOFY!" when he opened it.  I loved his reaction to every gift.  





Elmo piggy bank, no way!! Of course he loved the present I bought after the fact for a dollar more than any other gift.






 He's got books, and cycles, and more Mickey Mouse crap than he knows what to do with.  
The first part of his birthday was sadly spent running errands for the diabetes walk.  He didn't seem to mind too much.  He is my little errand running buddy after all.


He couldn't wait to take that airplane off his cake and play with it.


We were in full Mickey-mode for the family party.


Sam was looking so grown up but then he popped that freaking binky in his mouth.


He was having a really good hair day too, I might add.


The Ross Family gave him this very appropriate Mickey sweatshirt.


He had tons of presents to open and was so excited.


Every boy needs a monster truck.


And a train.


And of course a lap top.



Everything was going great until we took the binky away to get a picture without it.  Sam has got the 2 year old tantrum form down!


My mom got him this giant Micky which he was initially terrified of.


He slowly warmed up to it and started squeezing it's nose.


Now they are best friends!


This is just some of the family members in attendance. 


"Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you...


Happy Birthday dear Sam,


Happy Birthday to you!"


Make a wish Sammy-Boy!!



I think he wished that he didn't have to take anymore pictures because he refused to look at the camera the rest of the night.  Sorry everyone if I missed you with Sam.  He was being two, what can I say!


He had a darling moment with Grandma Yvonna.


He was a total nut with Grandma Jackie.


And a little punk with Grandma Jeri!


Speaking of nuts, Jack and Sam are like two peas in a pod.


I had to tell these two my hair was on fire to get them to look at the camera.  That explains the deer in the headlights look.


I finally got some decent pictures around 10 p.m. 


Sam and his bro's

It was a great day, celebrating all things Sam.  I hope he had a great birthday. I sure love my little Sammy-Boy. My goal is to get rid of the binky by his next birthday!

I think we need to stop and talk about his fantastic hair day for his festivities. Like he just stepped out of the salon....

What a darling darling boy. Such a sweet little character. Makes me laugh, little rat.
