After spending Riley's birthday at the zoo, we capped off the day with dinner, gifts and cake. Eli, Brody and Riley helped add the finishing touches to the cake, complete with little finger marks where they sampled the icing! 
While cleaning up the other two, Riley worked quickly to get the lid off the sprinkles, dip it in icing and then proceeded to feast.
Brody went shopping for Riley's gift, I only assisted by chauffeuring and carrying the $$. He picked out a ginormous container of cheese puffs, new markers, a monster truck, a police car and some dinosaurs. The container of cheese puffs being the most expensive item purchased that day! It was fun to watch Brody put serious thought into what Riley needed for his birthday.
And finally the candles were blown out and the cake devoured!
We ended the day with some group pictures (picture of all six below) and head banging to Queen (video below). I think the only thing missing was Aunt Michelle and Uncle Justin.
In the end, it was a pretty big day for a two year old, but I do believe he enjoyed every minute of it!
