Charlotte is 2!!

My sweet little girl is 2 years old! This has been a year full of changes for her -- when I think back to this time last year, it's amazing to see how much she has changed!

We started her birthday the night before and let her have one gift. :) She got a new riding toy thats more girl-y than the firetruck she's been using!

We didn't have any big plans for her big day -- just spending time together. Our first outting of the day was to get this balloon she's been gushing over every time we go to Walmart. She was quite a sight carrying that thing around all day.

I took a few pictures that morning of her -- I'm waiting till after her doctor appt next week to do a big post about all the things she's into, I mean upto, right now. :) She starting to look so big with those curls and longer hair!





We had a fun lunch at ChickFilA and Mimi & Grandad met us there to start the celebrating! Then it was home for a nap and to wait to Daddy & Madeleine to get home. While we were waiting for them, we did some FaceTime with Sugar & Stewart so they could watch her open her gift they'd sent -- isn't technology wonderful!




We'd decided to go eat mexican food that night since one of Charlotte's favorite things right now is chips and queso. We usually end up having mexican if we go out these days since she's perfectly happy to sit through an entire meal just dipping chips and eating them. She's also discovered tortillas and likes fajitas sometimes too. So, off we went to our favorite mexican restaurant for dinner. Yum!








Next it was time for presents! She knew exactly what to do after Christmas. :)





She got lots of great new toys, but the look on her fact when she put on her Dora sunglasses and took off holding her new Dora purse was priceless. :)


She thought she was hot stuff!


Finally, it was time for cake! We did an elmo cake which Charlotte was pretty excited about.


This girl isn't afraid to dive into some cake either!





By the time we finished cake and had a bath, this girl was done. It didn't take her long to fall asleep. We had a great day celebrating sweet Charlotte. Still can't believe my baby is TWO!
