Our Baby Turns Two

On January 15th we celebrated two birthdays....Matt's and Jason's. Matt got his birthday cake (cheesecake) Thursday night for caregroup and Jason got his monkey cake Friday night after dinner. Initially I couldn't decide what cake to make for him but when I saw the monkey cake my decision was easy....he's such a little monkey as he climbs and scales everything.

So here is the finished product.
Opening a few presents.

A big train book....he loves trains.

A present bigger than him...a very large tonka recycling truck. Carson is very much in love with this toy.

We went to Outback for an early dinner, releasing me from cooking and cleaning up....it was much easier to leave the mess at Outback. After dinner, the staff brought our cake out with candles and sang "Happy Birthday" to Jason. He was happy initially but then a little unsure of the entire event....but very excited to blow out the candles.

The final present we gave him was....well, take a look below.

He was a little apprehensive but has developed a liking for his new friend; however, the monkey can be found most nights in Madison's bed....she's really liking this toy.
