The next day we had Solomon's birthday party. He turned the big TWO! It's really hard for me to believe it. I bought one of those inflatable jumpy things from my cousin, so the kids had a blast jumping around in it. 
The pictures above are actually from the week or so before when we blew it up. I don't have his bday pics ready yet. Next time any of you come to Wichita, bring your kids over and we'll pull it out. Kids just love those. My mom and sister did a lovely job with his cake. They made two paw prints as we had a Chocolate Lab themed party. Coco, our dog, and Solomon are best buds. Again, I'll post pics later on. Solomon got lots of great stuff and has been playing with it all non-stop. For instance, one of our friends thought it would be funny to buy him a recorder.... enough said.. see below..
He also got lots of great clothes. We bought him a toy airplane since he is obsessed/mesmorized by them right now! My parents got him a super cool red tricycle.
His real birthday was on Tuesday, so we took cupcakes to his school and snapped a few pictures there. He downed his cupcake before the others had even begun, so he was a little miffed that they didn't really want to share theirs with him. :) I think he takes after mommy. I mean, don't be shy... just eat it! Again, pics to come.
This past weekend, we went to Lawrence for the KU football game. It was a lot of fun. My brother-in-law/SIL watched him throughout the game which was awesome as our tickets were elsewhere. They said he had a great time. I think that's true b/c he crashed hard in the car on the way home and was a nightmare for about an hour after we got home!
We took him for his 2-year check up on Friday. Dr. Chavez said all is well and he's heatlhy. He received a few vaccinations and we'll have to take him back in a few weeks when the H1N1 shot is available.

This pictures shows obvious "bed head" but it cracks me up b/c it looks like old lady hair after the curlers are out! :)
Note our little bareback rider above!
Our friend, Sol, just did some landscaping work in our backyard and it looks so good. I should have taken a before picture, but I never remember to do that stuff. Come and visit and you'll see it.
I'll post the other pictures soon.
