Happy Birthday Oliver!

I seriously cannot believe that my baby is 2! And what a great birthday he had! I had a whole day of fun planned, so we had to wake up early to take Spencer to work so we could have the car for the day. We woke Oliver up (singing Happy Birthday, of course) and buckled him into his car seat. He wasn't very happy to be awake let alone in the cold car, but I came prepared. I gave him a present! We bought him a new Blue's Clue's DVD to play in the car (yes, we have a DVD player in the car to save our sanity, otherwise, it would be constant screaming every time we got it). I really think he was more excited to open it than to watch it though.We got home, had breakfast and lounged around for a few hours. Deanna and her boys and Jessica came over at lunch time with chicken nuggets and fries for lunch - Oliver's favorite! Then, we got into the car and headed to Thanksgiving Point to the Museum of Ancient Life. It is such an awesome museum! Mostly dinosaur fossil and such. Oliver loved it from the second we walked in the door, saying "dinos!"

He was really excited until I said that one was going to get him. Oops! He got over it as soon as we moved away though...

Then, I gave Oliver the camera. Most of the photos turned out like this.

There were a couple of good ones in there though.

After the museum, we went to the Ice Cream Shop at TP. I asked Oliver if he wanted some ice cream (what's a birthday without ice cream?) and he said, "No, cake."

Luckily, there was a bakery and deli right next to the ice cream shop. We got the biggest piece of chocolate cake they had!

He definitely enjoyed that cake. He ate almost half of that giant piece!

He fell asleep in the car on the way home and stayed napping for over an hour when we got home. That's saying a lot. He never naps, so he must have been worn out - I know I was! Oliver's birthday party is going to be on Saturday and Grandma and Papa's house. I'll post pictures sometime after that. It's going to be another fun day!
