This post is all about Marcus. That's right, we celebrated his 2nd birthday on Sunday, August 24th. We can't believe it's already been 2 years. We all had a great time and even made a trip down to the zoo in Baltimore. It was his first time at the zoo and he really enjoyed seeing all of the animals. He especially loved seeing the monkey "go potty in the tree".
On Sunday we all got up earlier than expected thanks to Kenley (who was apparently more excited than Marcus) and opened his gifts. Our biggest struggle throughout the day became settling disputes about who the new toys belonged to. We all had a good time though and Marcus really liked the chocolate ice cream he picked out.
Marcus has been such a blessing in our lives and has always been very well-behaved. He is so fun to watch as he plays with his brother and sister. Maybe we are a bit biased, but he's the cutest little boy we've ever seen. Thank you for the last two years "Bartus" (for those who don't know, this is how he pronounces his name).
Marcus' (or Mom's) favorite cake??

Excitedly opening his gifts!. Notice the new Crocs, he finally wore out his old pair. He has an obsession with these shoes, and they're usually the first thing he looks for when he wakes up every day.
Here he is showing off his new church shirt.
