Happy Birthday to my Little Lovebug! And (yea!) to me being a mom for 2 years!
 |
| 1 + 1 = 2!!! |
 |
| Our handsome 2 year old! |
We celebrated all week long, starting with his birthday on Wednesday!
We spent the morning at Alley Pond Environmental Center (part of his summer program).
 |
| Taking a nature walk |
 |
| Using a bug stamp to make art |
 |
| Benny and the Bearded Dragon |
Following Alley Pond, we went to our summer playgroup center (CUMC Playgroup in Middle Village) where I made cupcakes and everyone sang Happy Birthday!
 |
| Cupcakes for my prince |
 |
| 2 candles! |
 |
| Yum! |
 |
| Musical Instrument time! |
That night, we took him to Chuck E. Cheese, because, as quoted by a friend "nothing says 'Welcome to Toddlerhood' like facetime with a giant rat!"
 |
| Birthday icing kiss! |
When we got home our Little Lovebug found a birthday surprise all set out for him!
 |
| Duffy the Disney Bear! |
 |
| Love at first snuggle |
On Saturday morning we set up for the party - as you can see - we had a farm theme!
 |
| Party favors |
 |
| Shrine to my Lovebug - banner, pictures, cake |
 |
| Napkins and Plates |
 |
| He LOVES balloons! |
 |
| Pull-String Pinata |
 |
| Tables with bouncy castle in the corner |
My idea for my Little Lovebug's party was to rent out a petting zoo, but because we live in Queens, NY, they were incredibly hard to find and the places on Long Island wanted a fortune to come in! So we invited our friends to come to the Queens Zoo in Flushing with us instead! It was a misty afternoon, but we still had an amazing time!

After the zoo, we headed back to our church, where were were having our Little Lovebug's party!
 |
| Yummy food! Mostly catered from Stop and Shop, who always does an amazing job! |
 |
| Pasta made by grandmommy and macaroni and cheese made by my aunt |
 |
| My favorite - chicken courdon blue, pot stickers, quesadillas and mozzarella sticks |
 |
| We borrowed the bouncy castle from my aunt and besides my Little Lovebug, it was the star of the party |
 |
| Pinata time |
 |
| I made the farm cake and cupcakes |
 |
| Make a wish... |
 |
| And blow!!! |
 |
| Must be yummy! |
 |
| Super dirty piggies!!! |
