Who is 2?!?!

 I'm only a week late posting this, but I still can't believe my little man is 2 years old! What a stud. He amazes me everyday with how much he says and how fast he learns.
(Here's one of the pictures from my Dad)
We had a fun party for him on Saturday last week with his grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. Luckily my dad had his camera out, because I think I only took 2 pictures the whole time! William was spoiled by everyone, and scored some pretty sweet presents. He opened Leo and Adam's present first, a Lightning McQueen Pillow Pet, and I think he could've been happy with just that! Even after opening some of his other presents he'd go back to grab it and make sure it didn't get too far. He got some fun puzzles, books, airplanes, a Toy Story shirt, diggers, Mr. Potato Head, and a remote control bulldozer. Life doesn't get much better than that! His family knows him well. A few weeks ago I let him choose between a few cake pans: a firetruck, and airplane, and a dump truck. He didn't hesitate at all as he reached for the airplane. It was fun to make him a special cake, and I impressed myself with my frosting cursive! Danny picked up some balloons, even though William's been pretty afraid of them in the past, but they were a hit. He and his cousins LOVED running around with them. We are glad to be past that fear...
After the party his cousin Thomas, Uncle Spencer, and Grandpa Young stayed to swim. His cute little friend was able to come, too!
He has so many people who love him, and it was great to have them all together with us to celebrate our favorite little man! 
The next day, Sunday, and his actual birthday, we had a little table and chairs (thank you IKEA) that we got for him on a fun rug all set up for him with a couple of presents from us on it. We decided it would be fun for him to have his own little spot to sit and play. I think he loves that the chairs are just his height. He always pats the other one and says, "Mommy, sit!" Unfortunately they are not that strong. Especially in my enlarged state!
Here he is his birthday morning, playing with some of his new toys, and of course, Buzz and Woody!
