messyart: My littlest man turned 2!!!

So we celebrated a birthday this weekend. My littlest man turned 2, which makes me happy because i love this age :)

( i know, i say that about every age, but i guess i just love it all)

But it also makes me sad because he is growing up so fast! Too fast . *sigh* His real birthday was tuesday before the weekend. In true mumma style we celebreated from tuesday to sunday! He didn't understant at first, but very quickly realised that everyime someone sang him Happy Birthday, it was usually followed with the presentation of a gift of some sort. So then he spent the next few day singing himself Happy Birthday and then turning to us with an expectant look on his face. It was kinda super cute.

He opened his gifts from the kids in bed. They had made up thoughtful little gifts from toys and treasures from their room, and had each made him their own card. So sweet. This little man just has no idea how very loved he is .

Then we made him some blue pancakes with sprinkles on top. (The blue was an accident, the sprinkles turned them blue! ) And we blew up balloons and had them scattered over the lounge , cause he loves balloons. That was his actual Bday celebrations.

The Mr. and i had planned to have his room finished for his birthday. Somehow, things just didnt work out, but although it may not be finished, we did get alot done. We were making him a reading bed out of an old pallet, i'll share some pics of that soon.

But heres some pillows my dear friend made for his reading bed...

And a hanging decoration she made for him last year that we only finally got to hanging up! (Just don't mind the ugly table cloth/curtain behind it. We still have no proper window fittings!)

And these are some little canvas's i made.

Today we celebrated his birthday with family and friends.

We had lots of food and lots of fun. Although not everyone could be there, as my sister was overseas, mum was working to cover for her and my brother was fishing ( nice one, Jamil ;P ).

This was the set up before everyone came :)
