Happy Birthday Buddy!!!!!!

Well,today was Dominic's 2ND birthday.I cant believe he is already 2.Time has certainly gone by fast, too fast when I look back in old photographs and see how much he has changed and grown.He is such a good boy, I couldn't have ask for a better son for God to give to David and I.Since he was born he has been an easy baby.As he has turned into a toddler he has also been easy and everyday he amazes me with the things he comes up with.I enjoy looking at him when he is playing with his little trains.He can play with them for hours just pushing them along and saying "ChooChoo"He knows all their names and at night before bed he picks them up one by one and kisses them and tells them "goodnight" by their names.He adores and loves his sister so much.In the mornings when he sees her he greets her with a cheerful "Hi Sam", and excitement in his eyes of wanting to play with her.I love his caring heart, when we are playing rough on the ground(like lets tackle mommy), I will pretend like I got hurt and cover my face and cry.Dominic will stop and run over to me and pull my hands away from my face and bury his head into mine and say "No Mommy, mommy no", in a sweet caring voice, and give me kisses and hugs.He has a great love for his daddy.I think he knows where all the fire stations are in Elk Grove.Whenever we drive by one he goes "Daddy,daddy there".He can also hear a fire engine from a mile away.He will stop and "SHHH,listen".So, to my little Buddy, even though you cant read, WE LOVE YOU!!!!!! On Friday, we took the kids to the Sacramento Railroad Museum, in Old Sacramento.I have lived here all my life and have never been, David too.We thought Dominic would like seeing the trains and also there was a Thomas section.The Museum was really cool, and very big inside.They had lots of trains to look at, and quite a few you could go on.Dominic loved the Thomas area where they had tracks laid out and lots of trains to play with.Today,Saturday,we had his party at Round table pizza.We reserved a room there and we decorated it with Thomas balloons and decorations.I also made a Thomas train by hand.I was unable to find a train pan so I had to carve a loaf cake into Thomas.I thought it turned out OK, Dominic knew who it was so that was good.All the grandparents where there as well as Virginia,Joy,Kim,Joe, and Lexie.Dominic got spoiled with all his gifts, though he wasn't really into unwrapping them, hopefully next year.He got a dump truck,blanket,clothes,PJ's,Thomas trains,DVD,books,&money.Everyone was very generous to him and he loved all of it!Below is a video of Dominic playing with the trains at the Museum.I was trying to get him to talk but he was too into the trains.

Jill, great job on the party decorations. Never realized there were so many Thomas the Train paraphernalia. We enjoyed watching Buddy blow out his candles and open his presents and eat his cake and play with his presents. Sam was so cute too. Love your slide show. I'll have to learn how to do that. Dominic is indeed a special boy. So glad he came to your family (and of course, Sam too!) Love yas

You really are talented, Jill!!! You'll have to teach me how to make cakes. You're right, Dominic is a really good boy. I don't think I've ever really seen him cry. You're lucky to have such great children, and they are lucky to have such wonderful parents.
