Annmarie celebrated her 2nd birthday today. We had a small little party at home last night. Our friends the Grahams were here to help add some excitement to the party. We continued her traditional birthday cake with the cookie cake. This was inspired last year by my good friends Annmarie and Robin. She said she wanted purple and orange frosting. Sadly the place did not have purple (OK what is red and blue?) so I went with green and orange.
She loved the cake. At one point Annmarie, Will and Matthew were all sticking their fingers in the icing and then licking it off. Then it was time for presents. It seems each present she got was perfect for one of the 4 kids in the room. Since all 2 and 3 year olds know that all new toys are really for themselves and not the intended recipient. Chris got her what she has been dreaming of, a Buzz Lightyear. It is so funny to see her carry him around, and repeat what he is saying. The way she says Cowboy is hilarious.
Matthew seemed to like the Little Mermaid phone the most. It has a nice little purse like carrying case that it came with. Will loves the Toy Story figurines. Even at church today he couldn't grasp the concept that these toys were Annmarie's and not his.
Jeffrey loves the vacuum that he thinks is some kind of ride/push behind toy. Hey I guess they were all happy and that is all that matters.
After the crazy party Will and Matthew decided that they needed to get into bed, together. It lasted about 1 min, but it was long enough to get a photo.
Annmarie's latest thing is to sleep on the floor by the closet and Jeffrey's bed. She got a new bed and now she likes to sleep on the floor. Go figure, maybe she really likes the rug.
Will's funny moment of the day: Today after dinner we made cookies. they were all made and the last few were sitting on the hot pad on the counter. Will goes to the oven, turns on the light, opens it. Then grabs the hot pad and says the cookies are not done and places the hot pad with cookies back in the oven. (thank goodness the oven was no longer warm) Then pulls them back out and says the cookies are all done.
