look who's 2

Babs turned 2 this weekend. This is her super attractive cake for her birthday. Having learned over the years that kids do not do well with opening lots of presents at the same time, we spread them out over the day. Here she is with her first present, from her big sis, Kiddo. It's a play chalkboard.

After that though, Sunday is Sunday, so there was a lot of non-birthday things to do, like getting ready for church, church, and post-church naps. (For both girls, which meant that we were all up late that night.)

Kiddo was more than excited to help Babs blow out her candles. We insisted she needed Babs' permission, and every time she asked, Babs would solemnly nod yes. So here they are admiring the cake (or her big sis, depending on which child you're looking at.)

Another highlight of the day, actually the weekend, was that Grandma was here to celebrate with us. We spent Saturday at the aquarium (perhaps pictures to follow). Babs got to talk to Grammy and Grandpa, and Aunt M during the day. When she was talking to Aunt M, she announced "I eating cake and popcorn!" which was clearly the highlight of that moment.  

 

Is she not so adorable?
