Happy 2nd Birthday, Sebastian!!!

Technically he turned 2 yesterday evening, but we deferred celebrating until today since it was Good Friday!

I did get a picture of him playing at the park on his actual birthday while Stephen was at soccer.

 Then Saturday morning we sang to him in his room when we heard him wake up.

He went down to open gifts, which he thought was great fun. Anastasia wrapped a his favorite matchbox car. He didn't mind the re-gift. ;)


 Lito and Lita got him this cool little house with locks, keys, and doorbells on each side.

 And he got a bowling set from us (as well as a much-needed new car seat!).

 Then it was time for bacon and cake breakfast and more singing!


 Pawpaw and Manah got him this cool wagon. He was thrilled again, of course.

It being Holy Saturday, the kids also made the crown of jewels for Jesus and dyed eggs at Paw paw and Manah's house. But I guess I thought I had taken enough pictures for the morning because I failed to take any pictures of that!


Sebastian, you are such a sweet boy and so eager to be big like your siblings. You look up to them and love them so much. You are so eager to participate in family prayers, and it is so sweet to hear you saying the words with us. You are very proud of yourself when you do that (and we are pretty proud too!). You are quick to say please and thank you and give hugs and kisses. You keep insisting on sitting at the big table instead of your high chair. But mommy isn't giving in so easily. I don't like extra messes to clean up! You have been hitting when you get upset at someone, but you do a good job sitting in your time out chair for a bit and then giving a hug and saying sorry when you are ready.
You are speaking really well in sentences and are so careful to enunciate. In fact, you often repeat the last consonant of a word several times. Ex: "I want-t-t-t some, Momma."
We are so thankful for our sweet Sebastian!!!
