The Maner Family Blog: Paxton's 2nd Birthday

Can you believe Paxton is already 2?! Time sure does fly. He decided he wanted a Spongebob birthday party, so we went out and he picked out a Spongebob cake a couple weeks before. Ever since he picked it out, all he could talk about was his Spongebob cake. If you'd ask him what kind of cake he was getting, he'd yell, "BOB BOB!" (his version of "Spongebob"). Nana had bought him a Spongebob shirt and shoes, so he was all set for his party.

We had his birthday party at this place called Planet Pizza. It's been around ever since I was a kid! It was always so much fun going there because they had it all...rides, games, and a play area with tunnels and slides. All the kids got to play until it was time for pizza and cake. Paxton's favorites were the tea cup ride and the bumper cars. There was a small roller coaster that we put him on and he freaked out, so they had to stop the ride so we could take him off...poor kid! After pizza and cake, it was time to open gifts. And let me just tell you, trying to get a 2 year old to concentrate on opening all of the gifts before playing with each of them is pretty much impossible. After he opened one gift, he wanted to take it out of the package and play with it. So, he was upset when I took it away and tried to have him open the next one. Oh, and watching all of the other kids try to help him open his gifts was hysterical! They would start opening them before Paxton was done with the one before.

All in all, it was a great turnout and a fun time for everyone. Thanks to everyone who made Paxton's 2nd birthday so special!
