Two 2-year-olds' birthday parties!

In July Jameston was invited to celebrate his buddy, Jackson's, birthday. The boys had fun playing in Jackson's new pool in the backyard, as seen in the following pictures.
"WHEE!"
They also had fun throwing and chasing balls in the yard after swimming!
They enjoyed eating yummy hot dogs and bar-b-q inside, and
they especially got a kick out of the special visit from Elmo. Well, Jackson, did for sure!Although Jameston loves Elmo on TV, he didn't having much to do with Elmo in real-life. He wouldn't go near him to hug him or sit on his lap. The most he would do was give Elmo a five (while hanging on for dear life to Brett)!]They boys ended the party with some delicious ice cream and cake! Thanks, Jackson, for inviting us :-)
And at the beginning of August, we headed up to Cache, OK, to celebrate our niece, Layne's, 2nd birthday. Sweet cousins holding hands!
Here our the cuties getting ready for the pool (and playing with the kitchen sets):JW was OBSESSED with the bead necklaces he found at Layne's house. He's not used to seeing those :-)
And Jameston's mommy was OBSESSED with taking pictures with her new dSLR camera that weekend (and ever since)! Here's a good one of Miss Layne:
We enjoyed a little bit of a "cool front" that evening, so the kiddos had a blast playing outdoor!
The birthday day!
Jameston playing hoops with Uncle Jared
Layne loved her new "Fairy Princess" backpack
These cousins could play for so long together...they also had fun reading to us :-)
Now we are gearing up for our little fella's birthday in less than a month. Can't believe it, but whether I am in denial or not, it's coming!
