Even though the official day occurred last Sunday, we finally got to formally recognize Oliver's big day with a party full of food, family, friends and fun. The little guy had an absolute blast running around with the bigger kids, opening up some fabulous presents and of course partaking in a healthy helping of cake and ice cream. It was so great to get everyone together and enjoy each other's company, as well as see how Oliver has progressed in recent months. A few months ago, if you had him at a big event with a lot of people in a small space, he would have clung to his Mom or Dad most, if not all, of the time. But now the boy is 2 and is growing up so fast! He was more than happy to tool around, back and forth, chase the big kids up and down the stairs, check out his trains, read some books, you name it. All these people are here? No big deal, this is my house anyway! He was thrilled to open his many gifts from such generous friends and family, the unwrapping skill has been quickly mastered by the little dude. From Thomas to Elmo to Bert, with many wicked clothes and books in between, Oliver loved his presents and enjoyed being the centre of attention. Isabelle took an unusual back seat but didn't mind because she spent most of the night either goofing around with her new best pal Uncle Matt or zipping around with Sarah and Logan. Oliver sends special thanks to everyone that thought of him with phone calls, cards and gifts, we have such a wonderful group of friends and family that are beyond compare. Thank you so much!
