Happy Birthday DAVID HYRUM!



HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY David Hyrum! Last night we celebrated this cute little boy (my big baby as I like to call him) with a family dinner, presents, and cake. In the picture he is opening Aunt Amber's gift of a dump truck and front loader- they were a big hit. The"eccavator" (excavator) cake was made by yours truly and both David and Gabe kept telling me how 'cool' it was. "cool mommy, cool". If any of you remember last year's birthday, I made a dump truck for him. Not a lot has changed in the past
year as far as his interests go, he can just verbalize them better now.

Some things I love about DH:

-He plays really well by himself or with other children, including Gabe.
- He is gentle with the baby and loves to give Mac hugs and kisses
- He still likes me to carry him around
- David loves to be active: jumping on the bed, hopping like a frog, running outside, playing on the playground etc.
-He has a growing sense of right and wrong. If other children are doing something he knows is wrong he'll let them know it. "No do dat Gabey"
-He refers to his older brother as "Gabey"
-He is a good little 'cleaner-upper'
-Even when he is mad at something I did, like take a toy away, he still lets me be the one to comfort and hug him.
- For the past 4 weeks when we have picked him up from nursery, his leaders have sung his praises for being so good.

Thanks for being such a great little boy and being part of our family David Hyrum
