Doing some clean up for his birthday party.
Filling up the pool.
Preparing for the big day.
Soon after the party started, Morgan and Ian discovered the pool, fully clothed.
Like any good party, the chocolate milk was flowing and the pants were off quickly.
This is the kind of scene you don't see often in the adult world, outside of college fraternities anyway.
We were overly optimistic about 2 year olds being able to break a pinata, but Morgan showed excellent form.
Morgan also won the impromptu strength portion of the pinata competition.
Claiming their riches from the pinata.
Bartering for the best toys.
Cake time.
Bjorn is not sure his cake pigeon is edible.
His friends have cupcakes.
Bjorn will have what they are having.
Rohini helps Bjorn cover himself in stickers.
Bjorn carefully selects the next sticker. When it comes to body art, you want to pick something tasteful.
Bjorn is well on his way to the infant equivalent of waking up with tattoos and cocaine all over your body after a crazy night in Vegas.
Charlie finally realizes that Bjorn is covered in frosting.
Bjorn wonders if this is all just a hallucination from too much frosting or if he really did just get another train to add to his collection.
In the infant kingdom, you can quickly lose your spoils by becoming distracted, even for a moment.
Don't worry, we did not let them drive home.
The illustrated baby.
Winding down.
Bjorn tried several methods of opening his gifts. Jumping on them did not seem to work.
Nor did running them over.
Charlie was willing to help.
But sometimes you just have to get in there yourself.
Some presents he opened over the internet, with the Encinitas side of his family.
Playing with his new bridge.
Sharing his gifts with Charlie.
It's unclear to Bjorn how Charlie is not excited by this.
A few days ago, it was Charlie who was licking Bjorn and making him feel uncomfortable. Now the tables have turned.
A mutually beneficial relationship.
2 years old and a whole new attitude.
Charlie wises up.
Hi Charlie.
Not sure where he learned this.
