Happy Birthday, Travis!

Sunday was Travis's 2nd birthday!

 

Travis dressed for the festivities in his favorite Elmo shirt.

 

 

He enjoyed opening all of his presents. He needed Dad's help at first, but

quickly caught on and after he'd open one present, he'd say, "Another one!"



He must have gotten a little upset at the loud singing

and flaming cupcake in his face....

 

because the poor little guy burst into tears!

But, he quickly recovered after he got to eat the cupcake

and take off the Spiderman ring.

 

Travis isn't really into Spiderman, but when you send your

husband and oldest son out for birthday cupcakes you

get Spiderman.

Later that evening...........

 

we set out for the swimming pool for our church's Praise Kids Swim Party. They had reserved the pool and everyone brought snacks. It was wonderful! The water felt so good!! I got in and didn't leave til the last minute so I didn't get any pictures. I think Thomas is part fish. He was turning flips off the diving board! Everyone had a great time, except for Travis. He wasn't sure whether or not he liked swimming. But, he did smile once or twice and I think he may actually have laughed once.

On a sad note...............

today I LOST the diamond out of my engagement ring! It is GONE! I don't even know where to look. It is hopeless. I am thankful that I didn't lose the entire ring. I guess the diamond can (eventually) be replaced. But I really love my ring. David picked it out himself- it's part of a set with the wedding band- when he was in Hawaii. I know a lot of women's husbands buy them bigger diamonds as time goes on, but I don't want a different ring. I'll always love the one he picked out for me!
