Caleb's 2nd Birthday (Post Nap)

After his birthday nap, Caleb had a late lunch (too many cupcakes that morning). For his birthday lunch, Mike and I cooked one of Caleb’s favorite dishes…Lasagna (a pretty special dish since Mike makes the pasta fresh and I cook the ragu for 2 hours then make the béchamel)!


Then we went to the mall to celebrate Caleb’s birthday with family in “Little Einsteins” style (Caleb LOVES the show “Little Einsteins” so picking this to be the party theme was a no-brainer). First, Caleb rode the train with his cousins 3 times! They all had fun waving at family members spread out throughout the mall calling out “Happy Birthday!” as they rode by.



For dinner, we ate at the Cheesecake Factory where Mom, Tita Patty, and Tito John set up a beautiful party room with “Little Einsteins” balloons and yummy meal selections (check the photos to see)! Every person had a present from Caleb where they sat. Aidan and Caleb’s cousins each received a “Little Einsteins” book and placemat, and each adult received a hand-printed personalized plate from Caleb (when Aidan turned 2, each family member received a hand-printed personalized pasta bowl). After dinner, we sang “Happy Birthday” as Caleb blew out the candles (many times) on his “Little Einsteins” ice cream cake. Needless to say, it was a perfect birthday party! Happy Birthday Caleb! We love you!
