Happy #2!!
I know it has taken me forever to get caught up with stuff and have time to blog!
We celebrated your 2nd birthday with a big party at Mi Mi's house. The theme Mommy decided on was Hot Pink and Lime Green polka dots.
I decided to make everything myself instead of buying a cake. I made two kinds of cupcakes, molded bon bon candy, bite size brownies, and we had other treats that were polka dot shaped such as grapes, cheese balls, and ritz crackers with cheese in them. You loved all of your treats, but did not have time to eat your cupcake! You ate a little icing and left the rest. I made a pink lemonade punch and floated limes cut into circles to represent polka dots in it.
We played several games including a polka dot ball toss, pin the tail on the donkey, frog racing, ring toss and a silly string war. I also did a polka dot pool (AKA a ball pit with balls). All of us had a blast with the games!
You got showered with great gifts!! You seemed so overwhelmed you would open one and check it out and then move right on to open another. We did not get very many smiles out of you!!
People in attendance were: Of course Daddy, Mommy, Mi Mi, You, Uncle David, Aunt B, Weston, his friend Reese, Aunt Janet, Krysta, Uncle Eddie, Aunt Dorothy, Aunt Sudy, Uncle James, Mechelle, Aunt Marie, Mrs. Tiffany, Brianna, Ms. Carol (Brianna's Mi Mi) Kendra, Aunt Candi, Robyn and Savannah. We had a great crowd. Aunt Amanda's family was sick and not able to come as well as Mr. Dustin's family. Aunt Lindsay was not able to make it either, but met up with us a few days later. Nanny and Pop Pop couldnt make it either because Nanny was sick, but you loved the Dora chair they got you.
You really had a good time and enjoyed your special day.
After the party Daddy and Mi Mi crashed, but you and I didnt so I took you to the playground for a special treat. You met a little boy and the two of you played really good together.
You told me later that night that your party was SO pretty and gave me a big kiss. To hear that from you made all of the hard work totally worth it!!
I still can not believe how quickly the past two years have gone. I am enjoying everyday with you and love to see you develop right in front of my eyes.
I love you so much!!!
PS Some of my pics did not turn out so well. My camera was not the best that day:(
