Bradys 2nd Birthday

Brady turned 2 on May 31. We decided to celebrate on Memorial Day.  Since he was born on Memorial Day it seemed appropriate. Grammy and Papa came up and helped us party.  Brady LOVES Mickey Mouse.  He won't sit down and watch movies, but he loves Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.  He also has a Mickey book that he loves to read in bed at night.  He thinks he is actually reading it. Then we went to the park and let him play on his favorite playground.  He loves going down the slide and swinging.  He always says, "Wheeee."  For dinner we had Pizza, his favorite.  Then we opened presents. Brady is a very meticulous present opener.  He would open one piece and then hand it to me to put in the garbage.  It was so funny! Sydney and Tyler made cards and gave it to him.  They also went around the playroom and gave him their old toys that they don't want anymore.  I'm glad they love their little brother so much.

It's a good thing we celebrated early because Brady's actual birthday was super busy.  And he was SUPER cranky! We always start birthdays with donuts for breakfast.  Brady got a little upset because he didn't get 2 donuts.  :)  Then we took Sydney and Tyler to school and I sat down with him and held him while we watched Mickey Mouse Clubhouse and read his Mickey book.  I had to run some errands after we picked Tyler up from school and I decided to go and pick up McDonalds Happy Meals up and take it to Sydney's school for lunch. The boys LOVED having lunch with Sydney.  After lunch the boys were able to go out and play with Sydney at recess.  Then it was nap time! I think that was his favorite part of the day.  That night Sydney had an open house and Polynesian performance at school. Afterwards he opened cards.  He loved opening all the cards and did it just like the presents. One piece at a time.

Some things I want to remember about Brady at 2 is:

He is a very happy child.
He thinks he is hilarious. There are many days he will wake up laughing and laughing.

He loves Tyler and Sydney.  He loves playing with them, sitting by them, and generally just being around them.

He loves to run around and play.  He does not like to hold hands when we are going for walks.  He also doesn't like the stroller. He wants to be out running around like his siblings.

Brady also loves his naps.  He doesn't like to be woken up and if he doesn't get his full nap, he gets a little cranky!

He LOVES food.  He likes to have something in both hands for him to eat.  He is a good eater, but he likes breads and sweets the most.  He likes to drink chocolate milk.  His favorite food is Pizza.  Whenever we go to Costco he yells, "pizza pizza." Even if we don't get pizza, he yells it.

Brady loves nursery, but doesn't like Sacrament meeting.  We are usually out in the hall with him for most of the first hour.
