Birthday Boy Beckham!!

Our big boy Beckham is now officially 2 years old!! He is growing up way way way too fast and I hate it. However, we just HAD to have a big celebration for the occasion! After checking out rental prices for bouncy house...we opted just to buy. We got a great deal on this fabulous bouncy house and our kids absolutely LOVE it!! It fits right in our play area without getting in the way of our tv, couch or entrance!! PERFECT!!
It even has a ball pit...the kids favorite feature :)
The little slide is fun too!
Beckham LOVES choo choo trains lately so we had a train themed party!


Here is Beckham taking refuge in the ball pit...
I made a choo choo train cake...of course.
We were so grateful to Matthew, Courtney, Charlotte, Edward and Harry for coming to Beckham's party.
They all had a blast in the bouncy house...I can tell this thing is going to come in handy during the cold, wintery months :)
Harry was so smiley and patient and just darling the whole time.
Don't look too close...it looks much better from far away...haha!
Beckham loved opening his presents; while Jane and Charlotte loved helping him! He got so many wonderful BOY toys. They have kept him sooooo entertained, every day!!! Thanks to everyone who was so sweet to think of Beckham on his big day and for all the presents and birthday wishes!!
Here are a few fun facts about Beckham on his second birthday...
*He is amazingly smart! He can speak in 3-4 word sentences and loves to count with Jane.
*He is a fabulous singer! He has amazing pitch and recognizes nearly all Disney songs...thanks to
Jane.
*He has such a creative imagination. He love to play make believe with Jane. Their most recent favorite is- Jane will be the princess and Beckham is the night in shining armor who rescues her from the dragons :)
*He weighs only 8 pounds less than Jane. He is our BIG BIG boy, indeed!
*Beckham is such a sweetheart. He loves to cuddle, hug and give great big kisses which his momma just can't get enough of:)
*Though he occasionally likes to dress up with Jane...Beckham truly loves cars, trucks, trains and anything with wheels.
* He can recognize the big airplanes that constantly fly over our house every time he hears one :)
*Though he can talk REALLY well his communication of choice when angry is to simply scream at the very top of his lungs as LOUD as he can...it drives us crazy :)
* He is my very best helper. He will grab things for me, put things away, recycle items for me, grab Jane's shoes for her, throw things in the garbage cans, close doors, help clean up and he LOVES to help me with the laundry!!

We love our Beckham and are so proud of him!!
