Chance's "Happy Day!"

Yesterday was Chance's Birthday! It was such a fun day! We woke up and got him out of his crib and said, "Chance, what day is it?" and he said "Happy Day!" We had some breakfast and we got Chance ready for a couple of fun hours with Grandma Bupbears Sandi. They took him to Toys R Us where they gave him a balloon and a hat and had him walk around and everyone told him Happy Birthday!
While Chance was gone we put up his big boy bed and rearanged his room. It turned out really cute! So we set up the video camera in his room so that we could see his expression when he walked in for the first time! It was so cute... He looked around and finally said "Wow!" and then he said "Tractor!"
Then we tried to get him to open presents. He didn't want to because he was pretty excited about his tractor. First he opened the matchbox cars that his daddy bought for him... we should have stopped buying after that! He didn't want anything else!
So Abby helped him open his presents. I'm glad someone was excited for them! He loved all of his presents. He was so excited. He just kept saying "Happy Day!"
Grampa and Bupbears Sandi came, Bo, Jen and Abby Came...
and Grandma and Grampa Bouy came to see him open his presents! Make sure to look in the background of this next picture at the quilt that Grandma Bouy made for Chance's big boy bed! It turned out so cute! Chance loved it.
We had some cake with everyone there! Everytime we asked Chance how old he was he would put up both pointer fingers and say "two." All in all it was a great day! We had so much fun and I really think Chance could tell it was a Happy Day and that it was HIS special day. I loved seeing him have such a fun time. He is just getting more and more fun each day and I love that little man!
We just wont bring up the first night in his big boy bed... this is supposed to be a happy post!

That sounds like a great party! You will have to let me know how the big boy bed goes so I can decide if I should try it yet with Bryson or not.

We thought it was going to go soo good because he went to sleep after like one minute of crying... then he woke up a few hours later and cried for a while, so he and daddy slept on the lazy boy for a couple hours and he slept in there again for a couple more hours... we will see how tonight goes!

Happy B-Day Chance! It sounds like he had a great day! They grow fast right?! It sees like just yesterday that you were pregnant with him! You are a a brave woman for putting him in a bed! How is it going now? I might chance it (no pun intended) when we move into our new house. MAYBE!!!

What a fun day! His room is so cute! I can't believe he's two already. Natalie, you're such a good mommy!

By the way, that's so fun you got together with all your friends! I haven't seen some of those people since high school. It's also very likely I won't see them for at least four more years. It's so crazy how life changes isn't it?

What a fun post to read! We love Chance over here in the Allred home. What fun pictures to look at, and his room looks darling. I love that quilt on his bed! Two has got to be my all time favorite age. It's the most difficult in many ways, but there are so many tender moments. Happy Birthday, little dude!

Who do I look like?
