Two Years Old!

Davis and Blair turned two on November 4th. I can't believe we have two two year olds. That's definitely something I never imagined.

We had a fun little birthday party with Grandma and Grandpa Davis, Uncle Morgan, Grandma and Grandpa Erickson, Aunt Miranda, Uncle Jared, Aunt Mandy, Sam and Alex, and Adam, Abril and Sienna. The kids loved it.

That morning my mom came to help me frost the cakes. Those things take longer than they look like they would. (Okay, maybe not if you're not challenged, but it took me forever.) Blair and Davis were so excited for their cakes. To this day when they say hear "cake", they say "Blair purse cake, Davis dinosaur cake." It's pretty funny.

After high council that night, Spence stopped and got balloons, which we a hit for many days. And we had a great little party.

Davis got a bunch of matchbox cars and a mat to drive them on. Blair got a new baby and a bunch of baby stuff including a potty which she loves. We gave them an easel too. After opening the million fun presents from everyone else, we almost forgot we even had it. The kids got the cutest little build a bears from Grandma and Grandpa Davis which the kids have named Grandma and Grandpa because they push the hands and Grandma and Grandpa talk to them. They got new books from Uncle Morgan. Adam and Abril gave Davis the cutest little car that drives by itself and Blair got a fun dress up set which has been put to good use on a daily basis. Grandma and Grandpa Erickson gave them a blow up house-like thing that is filled with balls. Spence is totally not a fan of this toy in our small little house, but we get it out every now and then and the kids love it every time. The red-headed Erickson's gave the kids cute little art aprons. They were spoiled for sure. It got a little crazy opening presents with both of the kids, but they had a good time.

Here are their stats at 2 years old:

Davis:
Height: 35 in, 65th percentile
Weight: 27 lbs 2 oz, 35th percentile
Head Circumference: 19.75 in, 80th percentile

Blair:
Height: 35.5 in, 92nd percentile
Weight: 27 lbs 14 oz, 65th percentile
Head Circumference: 19.4 in, 80th percentile

The kids are so much fun at this age. I can't believe they are my little babies. There are so many things that are a lot easier now that they're older, and so many things that are a lot harder. Each stage has had it's fun things and it's challenges, but we've loved it all. Spence tells everyone that only the luckiest people get twins and now we're both hoping for two again next time...
