Happy Birthday Bobo!!!

Today is my baby's birthday. Bo is two years old. I just can't believe it. Don't get me wrong, he acts like a two year old a lot of the time. But time just goes so fast. (and sometimes painfully slow--like when you are sleep deprived).

We celebrated his birthday last weekend (pics below). So that might explain why he seriously does not think it is his birthday today. I greeted him this morning with a perky, "Happy Birthday Bobo!!" He responded with "happy birthday Jack, Jack." I corrected him and said it is his birthday today, not Jack's birthday. But all day he has insisted that it is Jack's birthday.

Here is Bo with his older cousin (by 11 days) Jack. Jack, Jack to us!

They love each other so much. They crack each other up!


We had a party for him on Saturday. It was only an hour and not many big siblings were there. Just a lot of two years olds eating cake, ice cream and playing hard. My mother-in-law makes the kids their special birthday cakes. She made this awesome dinosaur cake. Bo was so sweet and when his friends got there, he would immediately motion for them to come see the cool cake.



Bo tried to greet most of his friends with a big "Bo hug." Most weren't as enthusiastic as him. He can always get some lovin' from Mary Elizabeth (gee gee).

Uncle Rob with some of the kids! Ridge, Charly, Bo and Rhody all want to be with Rob.

Bo is so lucky to have 2 cousins that are just his age. Jack and Ridge and Bo are the babies of the family. The are definitely going to keep us busy. They are all precious!

Mommy and Daddy with our Bo!

Here is Bo kissing Nana. He does this often--usually he quickly washes it off and goes back in for another one. Yesterday was Mom's birthday. She is still a little bitter that Bo wasn't born on her birthday.

Cute pic of Jenny and Kylie. Bo has always adored Kylie. It has been an unrequited love. She is smiling here but don't let that fool you. When Bo comes at her, she quickly grunts and pushes him away. I think it will make him a stronger man in the end!

We love you sweet Bo!

Happy Birthday, Bo! We love you...and can't wait to be part of the family (we are betting that Kylie will come around in the end, too!). Kylie just makes Bo work a little harder for her good lovin'. That's my girl! Hope the next 2 years are as fun as the first 2 years have been!

Sweet Bo-
The Howell girls all adore you and we are sad that mommy had a "senior" moment and forgot the fun festivities. We will make it up to you. You are just about the cutest little boy we have seen a long long time!!- Grace and Emma
