Happy Birthday Johnny!

Hard to believe my little guy is 2 already.  He's learned so much and surprises me all the time.  He's got a fantastic little personality and probably has the best laugh ever.  David turned his car seat around this weekend so now he's forward facing,  it's a whole new world for him now.  Now we're letting him have chocolate and peanut butter and there's been no adverse effects.  We waited a while on those just because David and I have had our own allergic pasts and we'd like our kids to not go through that.  He really likes peanut butter sandwiches, but we need to make them more bite sized since he'll cram a quarter sandwich into his face and then choke on it.  We busted out the m&m's this last weekend during his birthday party.  Johnny parked himself next to the candy dish so I had to move it and give him his own little stash to munch on.  He's still got the drool factor so I didn't want him to drool all over the m&m's that everyone was eating.  I made Minion cupcakes that turned out really well, thank you again Pinterest.  He really liked his presents.  Grandma Claudia and her cousin Marsha were there as well as some of our Preston friends.  Johnny really loves his Uncle Drew, cried really hard when it was time for Uncle Drew to leave.  But it was 7:30 pm and they really did need to go with bedtime approaching.  We'll just have to have them babysit some time in the near future, we're due for a date night.  Now that the birthdays are done we've got other stuff to focus on.  Check up's for the kids are coming up.  Holiday will be getting her costume for her dance recital this weekend, the recital is in June.  This time of year gets busy for the dance studio with costumes, portraits, ticket sales, combined classes, dress rehearsal and finally the recital.  Holiday's Pre-K graduation will be in June.  I think the kids might do some little song or something for the 'ceremony'.  She's all signed up for summer camp through the same place that's been doing her Pre-K.  The same place will be doing her before/after school care when Kindergarten starts in September.
