Happy birthday Sam!

On Sunday we celebrated Sam's 2nd birthday! Honestly, where does time go? We still remember where we were when he got the text he was born and then in less than an hour of being born we got to see the little cutie! Love at first sight!
So we told Trevor we were going to Sam's party and he ran over to get the phone. Well, two phones to be exact. Not sure if he was calling Sam or someone else but he had a nice conversation with someone!
Sam had his party at a lake by their house. The weather perfect and we all had a lot of fun. Both sets of Sam's grandparents, Sara, Trevor, Aunt Nicci and her boys Adam and Cole, Aunt Nicki and Uncle Paul and their kiddos Brennan and Lola were all there! Lots of kids and luckily a lot of adult hands to ensure a good time was had by all.
Trevor wasn't so sure of the water like everyone else. If you can see, he's actually hanging on to Mommy's dress....you know, to protect her from the water ;)
Sam didn't stop moving once. Luckily we have a quick camera to capture the birthday boy in action!
Uncle Jim was the one who finally helped get T-rev into the water! And after that it was no holds bar for our little guy!
Pretty fun!
Splish-splash!
I'm going to get you wet!
Trevor even liked to jump off the dock - even if someone wasn't there to catch him. What a little daredevil! At least Grandma Jeanne was on the deck to catch him!
Adam and Cole and Uncle Paul:
Aunt Nicci with Brennan and Lola:
And squirt guns - how fun!!
Trevor gave the birthday boy a birthday squeeze and the funniest thing happened. They tipped over into the water. We have strong squeezers in our family!
After we ate and had some more lake time the kids got to play a bit on the playground. Not the best picture but posting it to remember that Trevor was wearing the outfit Sam wore on his 1st birthday! Yes, it's a bit tighter than when Sam wore it a year prior (they are 3 months difference in age) but still cute as ever!
After playtime we headed over to Jim and Annie's to sing 'happy birthday' and enjoy some cake.
Make that some Toy Story cake because Sam is all about Buzz! Happy birthday Sam! Hope all of your wishes come true!
Trevor sure liked the cake! Funny note here is that T is only wearing his bib because Sam is wearing his. If no one else is wearing a bib he refuses to put one on! Oh and don't try to give him kiddie utensils either - he only uses big people's forks and spoons.
Probably one of Sam's favorite gifts was the Buzz Lightyear pajamas! How cool are those!! He had to put them right on and still had them on when we left.
How did we know it was time to leave? When Mommy found Trevor kind of whining by the back door and doing the sign for bed. He was a tired boy who fell asleep before Mommy even backed out of their driveway :)

  1. Nice pics Sara, enjoyed seeing Trevor, Brian and you even though it was a short visit. Love those Buz Lightyear pjs on Sam. Glad you got to see Gr Grandma Hillins once again and were able to connect w/her even though you have only been able to see her a couple times a year. Sending hugs to Trevor without him falling down. love you all. Aunt Carolyn
