Easton has been a monster for much of the past year. He has had several problems with his shunt and all the pressure in his head causes him to be very irritable and sometimes intolerable. As one of his doctors put it, "shunt problems make a good boy turn into the devil." He has had a tough year full of surgeries, plenty of CAT scans and way too many doctor appointments. The good news is that that the shunt is now working and is on the right setting for him, so we are hoping for a healthy year!
Easton turned two last week and the theme for his birthday party was "Terrible Twos," so everything was decorated with monsters. We had the party with one of Easton's friends who is just a few days younger then him.
We had several games for the kids at the party to do. Above is "Color in the Monsters"
This one is pin the eye on the monster. The other kids were blindfolded, but Easton didn't like the blindfold.
Monster Bowling
Monster Cupcakes
Here are Easton and Jax. The Birthday boys about to eat their cupcakes.
Monster sandwiches
Apples with a cream cheese & brown sugar filling with slivered almonds as the teeth.
Delicious punch! We also had monster cheese balls (so good)!
Some of our party guests.
Here we are, the hosts after the successful party! By the way Charise, we didn't take pictures of the food, so I copied a few pictures from your blog. Thanks!
We also did a small party at our house when Easton opened presents. Here is the Super Why cake I made him. It didn't turn out great, but he didn't seem to mind. All in all, our little monster had a great 2nd birthday!
