First, I’ll start with the Easter prep. We dyed eggs and, of course, made a mess.

Then it was time to celebrate Miles’ bday. We had a small family-only party (Our goal is to avoid having a big party for as long as we possibly can).

Miles finally understood the art of opening presents. He was squealing in delight and having an absolute ball.

He got very protective of his birthday cake because Uncle Michael kept tormenting him.

I will admit – I was quite proud of my cake. It was yummy and it looked good (100% homemade)

Miles enjoyed licking the beater.

Then on Sunday we hunted Easter eggs. Miles LOVED it. Since the Easter bunny came during nap time, for a few days after Easter he thought there would be eggs to hunt after every nap. Oops. The Easter bunny hid the eggs in some funny places.

But Miles found every one of them!

Lyla found the whole process extremely interesting.

But she eventually woke up and we got some good pictures of her.

On Miles’ actual birthday we opened a few more presents and had cupcakes. He even blew out one candle on his own!!

Both Miles and Lyla was lucky enough to have their 2 year and 2 month well-visits on Miles’ bday (I know – I’m a bad mommy for making miles go to the doctor on his birthday). Both were in the 50th percentile in height and weight. Too bad that’s not going to last with their genes!
