Happy Birthday Brody!!

Gramma and Grandpa Summers got him a four wheeler just like daddy's
This is what he ended up looking like, all wrapped up in balloons and playing with the broom!
he loved hitting the pinata, he didn't love taking turns!
His new tricycle from Aunt Bobbie Lyn, Uncle Paul, Anna and Joseph
I love the look on his face when he saw this panda bear so cute

Chris, Brooke and Lexi got him a Thomas the train set, they did too much!

Brody was so excited to see Kaitlyn that he took her a balloon, isn't that precious

Here are the finished products



It seems like every time I post anything I am talking about how fast time is going by. Today is no exception! My little boy is 2 years old today. I could really cry writing this! Two years ago we were welcoming the most precious gift we could ever have asked for! He was bound and determined to make his entrance one that we would never forget. We got to Parkwest at 6 a.m. to be induced. My water was broken at 7:30 I got the epidural at 10:30 and began pushing at 3 p.m. We took a little break to rest and started again at 4:30. By 5:45 we decided to do the c-section and at 6:09 p.m Brody Clark Summers was born, life as we knew it changed forever!
I must say that before Brody arrived, I always knew I wanted to be a mommy. I have enjoyed the last 2 years so much and I am looking forward to see what the rest of our lives are going to be like with our little gift from God.
Friday I decided to take a personal day and stay at home with Brody. I have to work late tonight, (open house) and I wanted some extra time off. We made birthday cakes all day, as you can see above. He loved helping me so much. He is such a little helper. I got him to pour the dry mix in and he did so well that I thought I would let him pour the butter in too! Well let's just say that I am still finding little spots of butter all over my counter and floors(ha!) Saturday was the big day so we filled treat bags and the pinata with candy and made sure everything was packed to go to the community building (which is across the road from our house so if I happened to forget anything it's very convenient to run back home) Adam set up tables and chairs for me and I decorated for the big party. Adam and Brody went to get the pizzas (which I didn't order enough of, sorry) while I got everything just how I wanted it. He had a blast, Although I think he liked the balloons better than the gifts.(notice the picture above)
Thanks everyone who came to help us celebrate this day!!

P.S. I also wanted to say Happy Birthday Nikki, it will always be easy for me to remember your big day too!!
