Kate's 2nd Birthday Party!

I took Kate with me to the store to pick out a little cake. I saw some huge cup cakes and asked her to choose which one she wanted. She picked this one :) SO CUTE!

Her Uncle Wes happened to be in town for work. She was SOOO happy that he could sleep over and come to her Birthday party. (Wish Nicole and the rest of the gang could have been here too. We missed them very much.)

We had Kate's Birthday party a couple weeks early, because Greg's parents were coming out. So awesome to have so many family members there. From Left to right: Greg, Me, Wes, My Dad, Kate, My Mom, Greg's Grandpa, Greg's Dad, Greg's Mom. (We sure missed Tara and her fam, as well as Lisa. And of course Nicole and the Kids but we were so grateful we still had so many loved ones there! :)

Getting excited to blow out her candle. So dang cute. She blew through her front teeth! (She needed a little help from Momma to blow the candle out, but she didn't know my air helped her)

Despite the electric blue color, it was a DELICIOUS cupcake! She loved it, but asked me to feed it to her, b/c she prefers not to have her hands sticky! Momma finished it off ;)

She was very excited about her new trike! She still is just a little short for the pedals, but soon enough. Soon enough.

KATE'S ACTUAL BIRTHDAY:

We didn't make it seem like a party, but we tried to do the things she loved...

We went to the park.

Went to the library.

Played at home.

Picked out a chocolate donut bar!

I made us dinner and then we had a special little Birthday song and donut. She L-O-V-E-D it! I think this was her 2nd or 3rd one ever. She gobbled down most of it.

Sheer donut joy! We all know how that feels, right?

HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY TO YOU, LOVE. We are so grateful for you, and are so ecstatic that you are in our life!
