Deji Turns Two!

Last Thursday was Deji's birthday. I can't believe he is two already. Sometimes it seems like he has been with us a lot longer than two years. I remember the morning we drove to the hospital to deliver him, it was cold and snowy. I kept asking Ryan to slow down, even though he was only going about 30 on the highway. We are full into the terrific twos. He wants his way and now. We have many melt downs, but I just remind myself that this is only a season, it to shall pass. I took cupcakes for his toddler classroom and he started full time in the two year old room on the 17th. He loves the two year old room, he likes being a big boy. We had a party for him with just family. Jen, Rick and the boys came down to help us celebrate. It was a fun time. We did the monkey theme for him since he loves his sock monkey and one of his favorite books is the Five Silly Monkeys. I even made his cake to look like a monkey. I was very proud of my attempt. I need to start practicing for Femi's Spider Man cake.
