Tate's Birthday Celebration: Part 1

Happy 2ND Birthday Tate!

Our sunshine!



I am so glad we decided to go out for dinner with just the four of us for Tate's birthday, it made it so special and fun! The simplicity of the evening made it one we will never forget. We had a delicious dinner at the Olive Garden and ordered a yummy chocolate cake and strawberries for dessert. Tate must have known it was his special day as he was the main attraction at the restaurant that night! He was a little ham to all the waitresses and tables around us (everyone was saying how they wanted to take him home.) Tate is really becoming a social butterfly every where we go- he waves, smiles, and says "hi" to everyone around. Andy and I are so blessed to have him in our home and for all eternity! It amazes me how much he means to us and how much joy one little person can bring into the world.




At the beginning the waitress asks Tate, "Do you speak Italian?" to which he replied, "yeah."

Tate looks JUST like Andy. He's like a little carbon copy :) I'm glad you all had fun.
