Late post about Charles 2nd Birthday!

So I did a pretty bad job this year with taking pictures of Charles Birthday! I guess because it was just the normal gathering of us, mom dad Sophia and Charles. We had all just gotten over being sick so I guess that was a plus, but my house still seemed to needed to be disinfected, so I guess I was happy with not taking pictures, although it did "look" clean! Ok, so we woke up that morning and sang Charles happy birthday when we woke him, I think at that exact moment he realized something was special about that day and pushed his limits to see what he could get away with! Ya know the normal reaction to a little kid on a day he knows is special! After waking him we made blueberry waffles his favorite breakfast item! Over all a very normal day until before supper when he got to open presents, but again just getting over being sick he slept all day and didn't completely wake up until after his presents were open, so opening presents wasn't half as fun! Then ate supper and cake, David had class that night so he logged onto class while I called Grandpa Anderson and Grandma Backstrom for Charles to get wished a Happy Birthday!

While it was around here that I Think the long nap and cake and ice cream started to kick in! He was literally running laps in our family room and jumping all around! Then while I was trying to find him to talk to Grandpa Anderson he was running around slapping himself in the face and screaming! Pretty sure we must have over done his cake! Lesson learned!!! haha, but overall he seemed to enjoy his brithday and his favorite  gift from my mom was a tool set! Which I thought would be his favorite! So that was Charles BIG Birthday! I know, I over did myself this year! lol, but we think by next year he will enjoy his birthday more, and his birthday will be more for him then for us.  But I have a few random pictures from then that I will add to this post!


So Charles one day decided to see how many boxes he could fit in! Here is the first box!



A different view to show you how tiny that box really is!



Haha here was the next box! Think he will fit!?


Sophs didn't think soo!


SILLY BOY!


He thought he was pretty funny!


That same day he tried walking around with daddy's shoes on!


He managed to walk half way across the room, which was farther then I thought he would get without falling!


That is where he ended!


Finding Nemo Time! That is Charles and Sophia's favorite show! I don't know why, I think it is because we have fish. They never actually watch the whole thing through, which is fine with me, but get super excited when it first comes on!





This was the day after Charlies 2nd Birthday in his room with his new tool kit!


His cool toy that has the ABC's on it! It sings the ABC's and has each letter that you press and it says what it is. 




random day outside


Charlie pointing at the bird that doesn't seem to want to leave! It has four birds and we watched them all fly away from the nest, and either another bird just like it came back or the same one is there! Although David thinks one failed to launch! lol but not sure...


See looks the same as when we first moved in right!? Its pretty crazy, I think there are more eggs in there, that mama is there all day and night again! (or another, i'm not entirely sure!)



Charles getting a closer look and Sophs copying!




my sweet girl!


Charles has discovered Markers! ever since he always points at the table and says color color? Sophs on the other hand wants to throw them and taste them!



Like his beautiful drawing!? On the paper and his arm!



Sophs layed down in the HUGE load of laundry I was trying to fold! Yes kiddos are always very helpful! 


Charlies birthday sticker from auntie Spring! We only waited like a week after his birthday for him to open it!
