Willie is 2!

It's hard to believe that just 2 short years ago I was pacing the living room in the middle of the night trying to decide how long to wait before heading to the hospital to have Will! I think I did pretty good since I had him within one hour of arriving at the hospital! And a few months before that, finding out thru ultrasound that we were going to have a boy (and Robbie arguing with the tech saying it wasn't possible!) Boy, has he changed our life! He is independent and brave, busy and sturdy, and gives the best little boy hugs on the planet. I remember thinking that the girls were so fragile at this age. Not so with Will. He likes to wrestle and jump off of high places. He likes to make gun noises, although I have no idea where he has actually heard a gun to know what it does... he loves cars and motorcycles, pretty much anything that requires keys. Along with all of that boy craziness, he has been known to apply blue eyeshadow now and then when he sneaks into the girls makeup and he enjoys a good manicure when I am doing the girls nails... (I really don't like to hear him scream when I say no to the nails... it comes off when he plays in the dirt!)
In honor of the birthday boy, here are some pictures of the fun we had here in Texas with Grandpa Bill, Grandma Lori and Aunt Andi!

Happy Birthday Will!

He looks so cute in the pictures and so grown up.

Hope ya'll are doing well and enjoying the weather here in Texas. It would be so much more enjoyable if it would just make up its mind. Hot or Cold, pick one already. :)
