Wordless Wednesday – Somebody Loves Yogurt
And yes, the majority of the yogurt made it IN his mouth.
Nate’s Second Birthday Pictures
As I said in an earlier post, I don’t believe in big parties for little children. When he can name his friends, I’ll throw him a party. Until then, the party is really for the adults. And that’s fine. But since most of my adult friends don’t live here, there was really no point in throwing a party.
Instead, I got together with a mom friend and her 2 kids for brunch. Why? Nate loves eggs 
Since he’s obsessed with Dora, loves the “Backpack” song, and goes bananas each time he sees a dog, I got him a dog backpack.
I baked a cake. I found the recipe on Pinterest. Click HERE for the recipe. It’s super easy and delicious. In fact, it’s my new ‘go-to’ cake recipe.
Oh, and I had to get my little guy a balloon. He love baboons.

Fashion Friday – What I’m Excited about (It’s not Missoni)
While most of my Twitter timeline was excited about Target’s new Missoni line, I didn’t really care one bit. Sorry, I just don’t get it.
What I am excited about is JLo’s new line for Kohl’s. It’s got everything – dresses, sweaters, shoes, jewelry, and home goods.
Who wants to send me on a shopping spree? Where are Stacey and Clinton with that $5,000 gift card when you need them?

Fashion Friday – Toddler Edition
I love Fall. I love the crispness in the air. And I love the clothes. While I may not be ready, I think Nate will be styling this season.
Picked up these gems at Target:
Found this one at Macy’s (I’d insert a picture, but the format isn’t compatible). Click here to see it.
Old Navy was helpful to: Cords, novelty tees, and a jacket.
Now, maybe I can pick up a few things for ME
Birthday Presents for Toddlers?
So I’m thinking Thursdays will be “Thoughtful.” That is to say, what I’m thinking hard/struggling with.
Nate has the audacity to turn 2 in 10 days. That means a party. And presents. Right?
WRONG.
No party – I’ll start throwing a party when he can name his friends. Until that time, the party is really more for the adults. And since my friends are scattered across the country, there’s really no point. This decision was easy.
Presents? Hmmmm…again, what’s the real point at this age? He doesn’t understand the significance of the day, so philosophically I am against getting him a big, special gift. But that seems like a very mean decision.
With this in mind, I’m getting him a small, useful gift. He’s getting a backpack. Cute, right?
So, am I off base on this? When did y’all start buying your kids big gifts? When did you start planning big parties?
