happy second birthday

Dare is T.W.O. !!

His cake, thanks to the confectioners at our local Parson's Bakery!

And, opening and unwrapping presents was so much easier and exciting for him now than at Christmastime!

We took him to the "Living Planet Aquarium" in Draper.  A place we have been wanting to visit for awhile now, so I was determined to make it happen on his birthday!  I took half a day off, picked him up from Andrea at 1 pm, and off the Baily Family went to visit the animals! 

He was so tired after the visit to the Aquarium, he almost instantly fell asleep on our drive home! But! NOT without his new "baseAball mit and baseAball"  one in each hand!  

We told him to blow out the candles, and I was fully expecting to have to explain and help with what "blow" meant. But, no, without any prompting, he completely understood, and here are the photos to show!
What a 2 year old GEM!  .
Happy Birthday Dare!
