Addie's Birthday and Birthday Party

Addie turned the big 2 on Friday and we celebrated all weekend. The night before her birthday, we decorated the dining room with some balloons and princess paper. Daddy made sure to get her a special sprinkle birthday donut to have for breakfast. She was most excited about the donut....girl after her mommy's heart.


We really could have just gotten her a donut and balloons and she'd be set for the day.... and yes, yes my child IS wearing a little crown on her head. She wore it all day on her birthday and to her party. Hey, if it was socially acceptable, I'd wear one on my birthday ;)


Jed and I took her to the Treehouse Museum to play and then to lunch. She had fun playing and wore herself out, then took a nap (I SO want to have a 2-year-old birthday schedule...)

Jed left with his dad and brother later in the day to go to Vegas till the next night for CES, so we went out with Dawn and my sister-in-laws to celebrate. We went to Pizzaria and had some yummy pizza, and of course Addie's favorite part was the ice cream.




Me and my sweetie pie....note me looking happy to be there and her just focused on her ice cream. Ha ha

We went to Grammy Dawn's afterwards and had a sleepover. She opened some presents from Dawn and Ashley. She loved this cute vacuum! It cracked me up that she got all excited about new cute boots too. Most kids are like, oh grrreat clothes...., but Addie said "Oh boots! Cute!" Seriously love her. So my kid


Party Time!

Sunday, we had a party at Grammy and Grandpa Rees's house. She had a blast and got some fun gifts. I made some yummy cupcakes for the occasion (supposed to look like sundaes)


Addie loves a party and had sooo much fun.


We sure loved partying with this little princess of ours. She was ready to crash by the time we left....look at her zoned look in the car ride home. She jabbered the whole way home though about EVERYTHING. Who was there, what she did, about having a cupcake and opening presents.....kept asking herself questions that she'd answer. "Did you have a cupcake? Was it good?.... yes"


Thanks so much to everyone who celebrated with us and for all the love and support you've all given us and Addie the past two years. She is the joy of our lives and we are so blessed that she's got so many people who love her dearly in her life!

Looks like so much fun. You are such a cute mom to decorate the house for her. I always laugh that kids seem to like simple things like donuts and balloons more than the gifts we worry about. I am glad you had lots of fun!

The cup cakes are so cute. Aren't little girls sweet? Sophie would be all over the boots. She's a shoe finatic. (that's my own fault)
