Two Year Old

Micah is finally 2! I really shouldn't say finally, because I do really miss having my little one year old.  I am very excited for what this second year will bring our family and little Micah.  Matt and I celebrated Micah's birthday by going to the zoo.  We had a great time looking at all the animals.  I think Micah's favorite was the giraffes.  Following the zoo, we headed over to our favorite lunch spot, Chipotle.  After a long day we were all tired and remember that Micah didn't have a birthday cake or treat to celebrate with.  So I quickly whipped up some chocolate chip cookies (SIMPLY) and Micah enjoyed his very own chocolate chip cookie.

We celebrated his birthday with some close family and friends the following Saturday.  It was very low key, and I think Micah definitely appreciated that. Anyone who knows Micah, knows his favorite toy is a little tiger/lion toy.  So instead of trying to attempt to make it myself I had it made on his birthday cake.  I think it turned out pretty cute.

Micah was not a fan of that cake!  In fact, he screamed when we put it on his tray. 

We later found out it was simply the frosting on his hands he disliked so much.  Last night, we gave some leftover cake to him after dinner without the frosting, and he loved it!  He just doesn't like to get messy I guess. Overall, I say Micah had a great 1st year and we're looking forward to an even better 2nd one!
