We did not do a Big Party since she was just turning two, but happily her birthday coincided with Piano Lessons Day and so the students stayed a bit later and a couple other friends came over and we a fairly full house when the cake was ready to be blown out. She wanted to blow the candle out as soon as the cake was finished, so I had to put the cake somewhere untouchable so that she wouldn't be tempted until it was Time. We got her candle in her Pink Heart Cake, sang her Happy Birthday and she blew out her candle on the first attempt! (Our first child to do that on his/her second birthday!)
We all had Cake (which was very delicious from all accounts - the frosting was especially popular - being eaten by the spoonful before the cake was served!) and then some friends had to go home, but some stayed for the Present Opening. One of her presents got delivered to the wrong apartment, but since the family that got it sent out an email asking about a Miss {her name here} and a friend forwarded the email to us, we were able to go pick it up and get it in time. Ah, the miracles of modern technology! =) She loved her new pink pajamas with hearts and her baby "purse." As I was explaining that her package was addressed to Miss {her name here}, she emphatically said, "{her name}BOO!" Yes folks, she thinks her name has a BOO attached to the end of it. I love this. You can't imagine how much.
She is very happy to be TWO now and is also loving all her beautiful new clothes and putting her baby to bed in its very own bed.
(Expect a post soon on how the cake was a near disaster, but turned out fine after all).
