CREW IS TWO + DOGGONE CUTE

(12/20/2018)

I cannot believe that our sweet baby is officially two!!  He has brought so much happiness into our life + constantly keeps us laughing.  He is so full of life + energy.  We did a puppy theme because there is nothing Crew loves more than puppies.  I swear it would have made his whole life if we would have gotten him a real dog - I don't think Nic will ever give into it.  And if I'm being totally honest, I don 't think I could ever really be talked into it.  

We celebrated with family + kept it pretty low key.  Its hard with it being right before Christmas.  Everyone is so busy during the holidays.  I wish I would have taken more pictures that day.  I used to be so much better at that.  Although it always feels like so much more to do - and adds a lot of stress.. I need to be better at it because I do enjoy looking back on the pictures. 

We served his favorite foods.  "Wunch" is what he calls sandwiches.  I made jello dog bones (cutting out shapes into jello is actually an art - who knew?!). I made some caramel "bapples" + I had a friend make some homemade Oreo cookies - talk about GOOD!  I made 3 different recipes once they were gone + have finally found a decent + easy recipe that are a close second to her's. 

I think Crew ended up with about close to 10 new dogs.  Grandpa Harry got him a little red strider bike + he is already cruising around on that thing like a pro.  It amazes me how good he is already.  I think he will be a natural at a lot of the things he ends up trying.  

We love our Crew boy + couldn't imagine life without him ( although a once pregnant Whitney who had just found out he was actually a boy + not a girl like the dr was thinking - called Nic and told him she hated his sperm haha!) I'm so glad he was a little boy - because nobody could ever fill his shoes!

Happy 2nd birthday Crew Curtis Evans
