Birthday party #2

 We had a party for Elise the weekend after her birthday. All of the grandparents were able to come and Aunt Kristina. Unfortunately Aunt Sis, Uncle Matt, Aunt Kathy and Uncle Greg (godparents) weren't able to make it. She was very into the tissue paper, not actually what was inside. I know that will change in a year or two.

 Hmmm, which to open first.

I tried to help her move a long, but she was still pretty slow moving. She liked to tell us all the colors of the paper, and what was pictured on the bags. 

 Once she got to ripping into some of the packages she had a good time. But it didn't last long because she got some cars from the movie Cars...and that was it. She wanted those open and didn't really care about any of the others.

 Already playing with the cars.

 She also got Mack from Cars. She was ready to put Lightning and all of this friends inside. She still plays with these cars everyday. 

 Let's take a brake to play with Mack and the cars again. "You don't need to bother me with more presents."

 This was her big gift. A water table. It is really pretty cool, and I have more pictures of her playing with it. 

 She's starting to get a little tired.

The theme was butterflies, so a friend made her cake look like one of the butterflies on her napkins.

( Thanks Aubrey!!)

I think the day was a big success. She is such a wonderful 2 year old. I don't think many people can say that about their 2 year old. I am sure there will be challenging days, but for now she is really a joy.
