2nd Annual Mega Monster Birthday Post Extravaganza Blowout Fest!

I HEART GARBAGE TRUCKS! Mom made me the coolest garbage truck cake ever, complete with doughnut wheels. Thanks, Mom!

Okay, no plate, no fork, it's on fire and people are yelling, "Blow, blow." Is this performance art or what? If I don't get to actually eat this thing, I'm gonna be pretty peaved.

"Which one of these is not like the other, not like the other..." I had a really fun time at my party with Bella J., Izzy A., Nia T., PIPER, Delaney A., and Maya J. Thanks girls for all the great trucks and for not getting me anything pink!

I got to spend some time out in Oregon recently at Grammy and Grandpa's. We went to Auntie Jen's wedding. She's hitched now to the totally, awesomely cool Mark Bales, but you can call him Uncle Buttons like I do.

I call this one Three McGs. Let's see, I'm 2, Dad's old and Grandpa might be able to send me to college on the money he's saving with Senior Discounts!

I love this door! No handles, no locks. One minute I was out back playing quietly in the sand while Mom and Dad chatted and the next I was inside, up the stairs, into the office and had the computer turned on, all before they even noticed I was gone. At least I thought it was really funny!

I helped Grandpa take a little off the top. I'm not sure what Dad and Grandpa are doing wrong, but it's a heck of a lot quieter when I mow.

Believe it or not, I actually got out of this position all by myself without eating woodchips. No thanks to the photographer.

Now that I'm two, I'm tackling some of life's bigger tasks like putting my own hat on. Hey, that's just how RD McG rolls, thank you.

The author at work.

Thanks for being a part of the first two years. It's been fun and I'm sure there'll be more to see on the way to three! Hasta, -R E
