Happy Birthday sweet Renners! I can't believe you are two already! You love the movie, "The Jungle Book" and watch it at least twice a day so we had a Jungle Book party for Ren. He always yells. "Peace Rock! It's the truce, the water truce!" We decided to make him a Peace Rock cake and he loved it. I couldn't find any big candy rocks so Ron finally told me we should just go get a rock from outside so that is what we did. :) I washed it, covered the bottom with ceran wrap, and put frosting over the ceran wrap. It worked great! Ren also got a 5 foot giraffe and a 4 foot long elephant. He was so excited. He loves to say the law of the jungle from the movie...."This is the law of the jungle. As old and as true as the sky. The wolf that keeps it will prosper. The wolf that breaks it will die. Like the creeper that creeps up the tree trunk. The law runneth over and back. The strength of the pack is the wolf. And the strength of the wolf is the pack." It's so funny!

Dear Renners, a little bit about you at the age of 2.....We call you Renners the runner because you run everywhere you go and it is difficult to keep track of him. If you go to the store, aquarium, zoo, park, you will run away so you have to be on high alert. You are the most determined little boy and once you make up your mind about something, there is no changing your mind. I know this will be such a strength as you get older. You are so smart and can figure out almost any lock that you can reach. ( That is why we had to add another dead bolt at the top of the front door. ha ha) I love that you are a Mama's boy and you love to cuddle with me. You also want only me to change your diaper, put your clothes on, brush your teeth, buckle up your carseat, and read you books. You have such a contagious smile and I love your love for life. Your smile can light up any room and you are so handsome. You love to help and I love how you always finish the job. You love to help get Sachi's food. I think it's so cute how you want to do everything on your own and if you spill some of Sachi's food when you are pouring it into her bowl, you always clean up every piece and then always put the cup away. You watch how things are done and then do them correctly. You love to be outside and your favorite thing to do is to drive your truck outside. Some of your favorite sayings lately are, "OH, Come on!", "What, the What!", "Mama, I wanna get out!". Ren, I am so proud of you for how well you have become a big brother. You try so hard to be gentle and control how much you love the twins. You are always giving them kisses, hugs, wanting to hold them, give the twin's their bottles, and making them laugh. Although, I have to remind you on a daily basis that the twin's are not horses to ride, you love them so much and it has been such a joy to watch you be a big brother. I know big things lie ahead for you buddy and I'm so grateful to be your mom! Happy Birthday!
