Little Alex is the bravest two year old I have ever met. His courage spills out into everything he does and it&#8217;s awesome and nerve wrecking at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>I am happy as any parent would be that their child is growing up but it does make me sad a little as well. I know this little dare devil that gives kisses and hugs will one day become a little man and kisses and hugs will be gross and only given\u00a0to mom and grandma.<\/p>\n<p>His two year milestone is my wife and I&#8217;s time to move Alex from his crib to a toddler bed. For his birthday we got him a Disney Cars toddler bed. His crib mattress fits in it perfectly and he was very excited to go to bed in it. We will see how time progresses and if he stays in bed.<\/p>\n<p>Mommy and Daddy wish you a Happy Birthday little Alex. Enjoy your day and I hope you had a lot of fun at your party. Me and your mom thought it turned out well and are so thankful for everyone who came to the party and those who wished they could be there but couldn&#8217;t make it.<\/p>\n<p>We wish you many more years of happiness as you grow into the great person we\u00a0know you will become.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My second child had his second birthday today.
