Happy Birthday, Arthur!

Arthur is two!

The day began with birthday doughnuts.


For his birthday this year, Arthur got a basketball hoop, a toy car garage, some beautiful blocks from Mina and James, and a large illustrated book of animals.   
 



 
Everyone was sick today so we didn't do a big trip to the zoo or to the beach, as we'd considered, but we did take Arthur to the park and then let him choose what he wanted for lunch (he emphatically chose tacos). 

A birthday animal parade.  I copied this idea from the blog Oh Happy Day and Arthur loved it, he was particularly excited about the "gorilla in a hat."  (His favorite animals are gorillas and turtles.)


   

I also made a special hat for Boo.


We had dinner at home, followed by birthday cake.



When Arthur's enjoying himself he's fond of shouting "I'm having fun!" or singing out, "I'm so happy!" Here he is talking about his birthday and his cake.


 
Witty, perceptive, affectionate, joyful, and smart - you're only two years old and already you're a full and fully wonderful person.  Happy Birthday!
