True Blue Two

Nathan is TWO! When I asked him what he wanted for his birthday dinner, he told me, "Meat and potatoes." That made me laugh and you'd better believe...he got it.Again our friends from across the street joined in the celebration but this time Xavier came over too. Nathan has a thing with strange men (not saying that you're strange Xavier...) and he lost it the second Xavier walked through the door. Willie is protecting him by shielding his eyes with his hand. Notice Will's tear-stained shoulder? It was quite dramatic.I probably should have been more compassionate but it was ridiculous how he carried on and I couldn't help but laugh.Nathan would try to close the eye that was closest to Xavier while still keeping his other eye open. I hope you didn't get a complex or anything Xavier. Sorry!It was a struggle to even get him to blow out his candles but eventually he did.Funny thing...he seemed to perk right up when we mentioned opening presents.The boys were so helpful in assisting Nathan in opening his gifts.He was happy to have his "dollar" from Grandma and Grandpa Kahumoku!Enjoying his candy bracelet!!After all the boys were snug in bed, Nathan was calling for "Dad!" (He knows who to call for results...) Willie goes up to check on him and shortly comes down carrying Nathan! He still wanted to play with his toys so we let him stay up a bit longer.It's probably the only time he'll ever play with his new toys (or any toys for that matter) by himself!Nathan is such a happy and cheerful fella (unless an unknown man enters the room) and we are so glad to have him in our family. Happy 2nd birthday Nathan. We love you!

Happy Birthday Nathan! I can't believe you are 2 already!! I've been really out of the birthday loop.

I love the picture of him with the candy bracelet! He has such a sweet face, even with one eye open and one eye closed.

I finally caught up on the blog. I always love to see the pictures. But---it always makes me want to be closer. (I know, I know, there's a house across the street.......) I love you all. Grandma T.

Your boys are getting so big! I miss seeing them grow up - it seems like they've all grown a mile since I last saw them! (Especially Nathan, he looks less like a baby every time!)
