Happy #2... (and #4)

Yesterday was Tryg's 2nd Birthday. He requested a "Buzz Lightyear" themed party with Lemon Cake of course. Being the good mom that I am....I was happy to oblige :). Okay...maybe he didn't actually ask for those things but I'm pretty sure that's what he wanted.
He had plenty of helpers... Brandon and Melanie get the prize for "favorite present"....a mini buzz lightyear with chopping arm action. Tryg has a way of saying..."to infinity and beyond" in this 2 year old gibberish language. He kind of makes some sounds that resemble "to infinity" and then you hear a clearer version of "AND BEYOND!....whoooosh" So cute! Of course Superman is "BAME" and Luke is "GAGA" who knows how he comes up with those but.... we know what he means :). On to the cake. I was kind of stressed about this one. I know I could just slap some frosting and some sprinkles on his cake and he wouldn't care..but it's just not in me :). Free-handing a Buzz lightyear on top of a cake using nothing but frosting was a bit tougher than I anticipated but I think it turned out okay. At least he knew who it was. Taste testing the frosting.... one of the perks of being the birthday boy.

Oh how time flies...
Happy Birthday Tryg!
