Gunnar turned 2 on July 21st. This posting is a bit late, but fortunately the celebration was not!
We had a fun celebration for him - Grammy and Pop-pop came to visit, and all of our neighbor friends came by for cake and ice cream.
Erik and I constructed a cement mixer cake in honor of Gunnar's love of those trucks, and Gunnar had a blast with all of his new toys.
Gunnar was funny about the "birthday song" this year... the day before his birthday, we took a dump truck load of brownies to his class and sang to him.
He literally tried to crawl under the table! I'm not sure if it was from fear of not understanding what was going on or from the off-key sounds of Mom trying to sing, but by the next day, Gunnar was loving the attention. He started to realize that with the song came presents and cake, and by bedtime on his birthday, he was singing the birthday song to himself. Happy Birthday, Cheeks - We love you!
