Today I have been looking through pictures of Lane's 2nd year trying to decide which pictures I want to print for his scrap book. There are so many I just don't know how I will ever choose! So I decided to start with his 2nd birthday. April 2, 2011!
We started off the day (well actually the day before) by going to Gentry to drive through the safari! Lane has been to the Tulsa zoo, but he was pretty little so we thought this would be a fun adventure for his 2nd birthday. He loved all the animals. Lane was so excited because A) he loves animals! and B) he got to "drive" daddy's car. Wow only 2 and already driving. Ahhhhh! We had so much fn driving around seeing all the animals, and after that we even got out of the car to pet some animals. I think Lane's favorite animals were the little baby spider monkeys that wore diapers. Lane thought that was pretty funny! 
The next day we headed off for his birthday party at one of his favorite places. Boingo Bouce! Boingo bouce is this big building that has giant bounce houses, slides, ect.. inside! If you have ever watched little kids try to bounce on these things its pretty funny. Lane was so excited, he couldnt wait to have the whole place to himself (someone is a LITTLE spoiled! can you tell?) Our theme that we had decided on was Thomas the train. He used to be one of our favorite things that is until we discovered Mickey Mouse clubhouse. Anyway we had all our family come to help celebrate his big day. It was wonderful! On the way home Lane looked at me and colby and said thank you momma and daddy for taking me to boing bounce! aweeeeee how precious is he!
After all the fun we had bouncing, we went to party room to have birthday cake and open presents. Colby and I knew we wanted to get Lane something special for his birthday. We just didnt really know exactly what to get him. Well one day I decided that he was big enough for a car to drive all on his own. I know a lot of kids dont get something like this until they are older, but we had total faith that Lane could handle it. One day we took him to toys r us and let him look at all the cars. Well of course he picked out the yellow camero! Which was sooooo cute I was already sold on getting it for him until I saw the price. Then the camero was out! So sadly we left toys r us without a purchase. A couple of days later I got on amazon.com and discovered the cutest thing. I knew Lane would love it! We got it ordered, colby put it together, and on his birthday this was the surprise that he got! Lightning McQueen! He LOVES driving his very own car around!
