Dylan is 2! We had his party the night before his actual birthday, at the park. The kids played on the playground, had pizza, played some more, and had cake and ice cream. For the cake, I made football-shaped cake balls, which Dylan just called "football cakes!" He talked about his party for a solid week before it happened, and he really hasn't stopped talking about it since. Now he says, "Me football party - again?!" Before his birthday, he announced that he would have a balloon at his party. And when asked if he would like to have a bicycle helmet for his birthday, he said yes and then added emphatically, "And knee pads." You see, his big sister has knee pads that match her helmet. We were surprised by just how much he enjoyed his party, being only two years old. He really seemed to understand that the party was for him, and he had his own opinion about what a party should consist of (balloons!). He knew there would be cake, we would sing Happy Birthday, and that he should blow out the candles. He only talked about a birthday gift if asked, so that part was a new concept, but otherwise he already had the whole party thing all figured out. He had so much fun playing at with his friends and eating his football cakes and ice cream. It was fun!
