After posing for a picture with his brothers in their pajamas, we got the day started with a few of his favorite things: his family, pancakes, and his most favorite thing ever, BACON! We met his Grandparents, Great Grandpa, and Aunt Emily at Cracker Barrel for breakfast where he ate not only his entire order of bacon, but some of Emily's as well.
His birthday fell on a Friday, which was a school day for James, so after breakfast we headed back home to get ready for school. Charlie took a nap while James did some learning, and then we all headed to Community Park in New Albany.
The boys loved it. Charlie's favorite was the slide.
After going down, he'd run over to the steps, climb them as fast as he could, and go down again. I think he did this loop about 25 times - he was panting pretty hard by the time he decided to move on to something else.
He did a little swinging
And actually played nicely with (or at least next to) his brother James for awhile.
Matthew met us there, and we grabbed another of Charlie's favorites (pizza!) on the way home for dinner. Pizza was followed by white ice cream...
...And some present opening. He kept saying "ooooh!" - it was so adorable. James was happy to lend a hand with some of the tricky wrapping paper :)
The day ended with a bath.
It's pretty obvious, but just in case you're wondering what he's doing in the bottom left picture, he's pretending to be a puppy ghost.
Happy 2nd Birthday, Charles Norman!
