Sunny days, chasing those clouds away...

Emma's 2nd birthday party was the other day and I thought I'd recap for those who couldn't attend (this post is mostly for the grandparents)

Some Sesame Street Monsters came to visit

The goodie bags I made

Emma and Payton-best friends from nursery

We did a 'Letter Hunt (like an egg hunt)

Whoever finds the Letter E and the Number 2 get a prize!

Pin the nose on Elmo

The winner of this game took home a goldfish-just like the one Elmo has

Unwrapping went so much better than last year :)

It appears I'm out of the loop on these crazy toys called Zhu Zhu pets-Emma's new favorite toy!

She was hesitant about the fire: "Fire HOT Mommy!"

My cupcakes (sorry it's fuzzy, those Elmos are really very cute)

Playing with the bubble mower the next morning.

We really had a great time. Emma was unsure about all the guests at first (mostly nursery children she knew from Church). She did warm up to the idea quickly and soon became social and excited. I think she even caught on that this was all for her.

Emma, your parents love you. 

At Two years old:

1. You love to sing and dance: the favs include itsy bitsy spider, twinkle little star, ABC's, Old McDonald

2. You are obsessed with Dora The Explorer

3. Your favorite food is Lasagna and anything else that involves Ketchup

4. You fit into size 18 months

5. Your parents took your binky away 2 weeks ago (it's used only at night now) and you're taking it like a champ!

6. You say the funniest things, some of the regulars: Oh No, it's 9 o'clock!, Where Daddy go? Oh Daddy at work, *phone rings* Papa?! Mommy phone, Papa!!
