X-Man Turns Two

Blog world, I'm not sure where the summer went, but I am still here. A very special little boy turns two this week, so I had to give him a shout-out. Xavier is so funny and sweet, and I think one of the smartest kids on the block. A little balloon action to start...

Okay, crazy story about the balloons. About two minutes after they were tied to his jeans, they came undone -- the balloons, not his jeans. They floated up into the trees beyond reach. I kid you not, here are the pictures to prove it.

And here is where the story gets crazier. Dad, determined to get them back, goes to his car to get an UMBRELLA to attempt to hook the strings by throwing it up into the trees. I wish I had captured him doing that, but I had zero faith (like, are you off your rocker? There's no way in H-E-double hockey sticks you are going to get those down). We couldn't believe our eyes. It freckin' worked. Two of them popped, but he did it!



Quick change of clothes...



Happy birthday, dearest X! Thanks to you and your super parents, always.
