Hard to believe that our little Samuel turned TWO on Thursday, August 19th! Both his birthday day and his birthday party (on Saturday) was lots of fun! We love Samuel and are so proud of the sweet, fun & special boy he is! Sammy is our little treasure from heaven.
On Sammy's birthday, Andrew met us for a picnic lunch & some playtime at a park. Mamoe, Aunty Jill & Sammy's cousins met us there too. Below is Sammy's first birthday present from his Mamoe & Grandad - a Geo Trax train set! Sammy loves trains and was so excited to play with this, he forgot all about the playground. :)
That afternoon we took Samuel to Toys R Us to pick out his birthday presents from us. He loved running all throughout the store looking at all the toys. And what did he pick out? More trains of course! (We got him a couple expansions for his new Geo Trax set, and a big remote control thomas the train!)
We decided against the Barbie Convertible... but he sure did love sitting in it!
Then we took Sammy out for a birthday dinner. Here he is with his birthday dessert!
On Saturday we had all of the family over for a Mickey Mouse themed birthday party! 
The kids had fun designing their own t-shirts with puffy paint
And everyone decorated their own Mickey Mouse sugar cookies
Jillian made the most delicious cupcakes and individual Mickey Mouse birthday cake for Samuel! She is so talented!
Here's Sammy trying to blow out the candle on his cake. It took him a lot of tries, but he finally succeeded! Unlike his 1st birthday where he barely touched the cake at all, this time Sammy devoured his little cake, starting with Mickey's chocolate ears!
Sammy got lots of fun presents. He wanted to stop to play with each one before opening the next! Here he is with his new toy vaccuum. He LOVES this new toy! (I love it too; I hope it will make vaccuuming for me easier now, as he always insists on having a turn every time I try to vaccuum. Now he has his OWN vaccuum! We'll see how it goes?)
And Sammy also loves his new Cars tricycle - with pedals! (He can't quite reach them yet, but that doesn't stop him from riding it all throughout the house & the back yard!)
Last, but not least, here's the whole birthday party gang, with their Mickey ears on! Samuel is sooooo loved his all his family!

What a fabulous party...love the Mickey ears and cake. I also love how Sammy reacted so similar to many of the same things Evan did. What fun it is to have little men the same age. We are going to get to share in so many of life's adventures together. Love you friends and Happy, Happy 2nd Birthday to Samuel!
