Super "Star" Day

It's official. We had a day of ZERO, that's right, ZERO accidents. We've had a number of days in a row now with only one accident or little mini-drips here and there; but, today we had NO accidents, not even at nap. What's that mean to Collin? Well, it meant ice cream before bed. What's that mean to Mommy? That she's super-proud.


It meant that she caved before dinner too and let him have a snack, something she never does. And, she even went all Suzy Homemaker about it and used a cookie cutter to cut stars out of the peanut butter bread to show him what a star she thinks he is. He was so impressed with his "star snack" that he kept playing with it instead of eating it.


So, tomorrow is Collin's big day: his birthday! We are so excited to celebrate with him. Is there anything more adorable than asking a two-year old to show you how old they are by holding up their chubby little fingers? Collin just cannot seem to do it! Grandparents stay tuned; there will be plenty, plenty, plenty of photos!
By the way, we are getting his two-year-old professional photos taken this weekend and I'm crossing my fingers that he'll bust out that famous ham-and-cheese smile that I love so much (the one you see ALL the time here), squinty-eyes and all. Then, we'll see, maybe, just maybe, about a hair cut.

Collin is my birthday buddy :)
He's turning two, and I'll be turning 26. Right? ;)
I remember Alex putting one finger from each hand next to each other to show that she was two.
