Daniel's Birthday

It's hard to believe little Daniel is already two years old. Last week was his birthday and it was a beautiful day outside, so we went to the park. He enjoyed exploring and running around with his brothers. It was also the first day of spring break, so they kids were really excited to play.

We all decided to go out for lunch for Daniel's birthday. We hardly ever go out to eat, so this was a rare treat. We went to Fricker's since kids eat free and it also looked fairly empty. Unfortunately, Daniel was in a weird mood and he was not all that great at the restaurant. I'd really like to be able to go out to a decent restaurant and enjoy it, but the kids never want to cooperate. I guess that is why we don't go out; well that and it costs $50 to go anywhere with our family.

I stopped at Meijer and picked up a really cool CAT truck for Daniel's birthday present. He loves it! It has Lego blocks that go with it and stack on to the truck in various places. The other boys also really like the truck, too. It is a nice one that you can also sit on and ride it. It's almost a week later and Daniel is still playing with it, so it must be a winner.

I made brownies instead of cake since everyone always wants brownies. We also had peanut butter ice cream and the kids were the quietest they ever had been all day when I dished that out. Daniel sure is growing fast and is just adorable. I hope you had a happy birthday, D!
