Birthday Bash

Malcom turned 2 this week! And along with his birthday black eye, he got three shots at the doctors office where we learned that he is, in fact, as large and in charge as he looks. At almost 32 lbs. and 36 1/4 inches tall, he falls in the 85% range for his weight, 90% for height, and of course his head is in the 97th percentile:) But seriously, Malcom is the best thing I can think of. He is funny and sweet and weird and entertaining. And on top of all that he is scrumptious. Nothing beats Malcom in the morning, and nothing is quite so terrifying as Malcom in public. He is known for his frantic prancing, deep voice when talking about anything that excites him, his obsession with movies, and saying "cool, nice" as if it were one word instead of two. He's smarter than he looks, but wouldn't perform to save his life. And for such a brute, you wouldn't believe how gentle he is with babies. This big-headed boy with lips to match is the light of my life. I love you Malcom. Everyday.

Sunday started off the festivities of birthday week. My fam came over for an Elmo party which was a huge success aside from the crappy cake Walmart gave us (at least it was free due to the mix up). Woody and Buzz were the best things to ever happen to Mac, and birthday candles just happen to be among his favorite topics of conversation. The pinata took some serious effort to break open, but I think he thoroughly enjoyed scarfing it's spoils. It was a good day.



The celebrations continued with a pool party/canyon trip for Kinsey and Pa's birthdays on Wednesday. What could top swimming and roasting wieners in good company? Happy birthday to all and to all a good night!

I've never seen a larger 2-year-old! (or more handsome) When I saw your post I was like, "Oh yeah, He's only 2." Happy Birthday Malc! Still can't tell that there's a baby on board! I'm ready to hold a teeny girl!

I love your comments Shayna, I can't believe Malc is 2! I really hope some day we can all hang out again.... I loved your 4th of July pics, and you don't have to try to be a FAB mom you are!! Seriously, who else makes everything GREEN on St. Patricks day for their kids. You're the best :)

I'm so glad you're posting again. And yet, I can't believe Malcom is only 2! Time goes by to fast. What a fabulous party! Wish we could have been there.

Malcom sounds strangely like Liam. in fact if I were writing about liam, i'd use most of the same wording you used.

that said, i therefore know just how much you love that little guy, and how entertaining he is.
