Dumptrucks & Donuts

Tucker turned two on August 1st! He woke up on his birthday at Nie-Nie & Pappy’s house, because DW & I were headed home from our cruise that day.

I had major mom guilt over the whole thing, but Nie-Nie was so great and had a fun breakfast for him which made the morning that much more special. She was also sweet enough to text pictures right away!

That evening, we celebrated some more at dinner with Grammy & Pop and a trip to Toys R Us.

For his party, we planned a little breakfast on the Sunday morning after his birthday. The theme was “Dumptrucks & Donuts” because those are two of his most favorite things. We cooked a big breakfast and had all the family over before church to celebrate. I did minimal decorating, but had to do a little something to make it festive. :)

For his cake, we just had Krispy Kreme donuts. DW made an early morning run to get fresh ones.

When he went to blow out the candles, one of them fell off and brushed his arm. He screamed, I screamed- it was super scary, and thankfully he wasn’t burned badly. He had a little red mark, but I’m positive it was enough to make him scared of candles from here on out.

We opened presents last and he had a big time doing that. With every present he opened, he’d say, “WOOOOOWWW!!!!”

We sent our family home with mini-dumptrucks and “rocks” (chocolate covered peanuts).

It was a sweet morning celebrating our littlest love, and he racked up with all his favorite things…plenty of tractors and dump trucks!
