Josiah’s 2nd Birthday Party!

This past Saturday we celebrated Josiah’s 2nd birthday with several friends and family members.  We had a great, but chaotic, time with two girls 6 years old and under, and eight boys 4 years old and under!  There was way too much food of the not-so-healthy type and Josiah got WAY too many presents.  Most of his gifts were trucks or tractors and the boys went wild over it!  We hardly even finished opening presents because Josiah was getting side tracked with all his awesome toys.  We are SO blessed to have so many great people who love us and will help us celebrate our little guy.

Whether it was the excitement of the evening or all the junk food, I don’t know, but Josiah had a very restless night of sleep and was exhausted the next day.  But at least he had a great time!  Our house now looks like a John Deere toy shop and he’s having  a blast playing with all of his gifts, so thank you to you all!

He got a little nervous about being the center of attention.

They all had a blast blowing their noise makers.  Josiah didn’t quite get it and just used his voice to make the noise!

 

Then came present opening and the mass chaos of excitement surrounding the tractors!

How fun! I'm so sad I missed it!! He does seem truly enamored by all the trucks, as do all the other boys :)
