Nathan's 2nd Birthday

I almost forgot to post these pictures! What a terrible Mommy! Nathan's 2nd birthday fell on a Thursday this past year and Thursday nights are Sarah's dance class, so we waited to celebrate his birthday at home until after Sarah's class. While the first year of a child's life sees many changes, the past year has seen Nathan turning more into a little boy, which is exciting as he can do more and say more, but it's also kind of sad. Nathan is truly a boy's boy who loves to get dirty and push his Mommy's and Sarah's buttons, but he's also my cuddler, and I'll miss these times once his head doesn't fit nicely between my chin and shoulder.

Once again, out come the festive mini donkey pinatas...
a must at every Tap Family party for some reason.

And here is a video of Nathan and Sarah enjoying part

Yes, that is sarcasm you hear in my voice!
