Breakfast in bed began Lily Grace's first day as a 2 year old. Matt and I surprised her with heart shaped pancakes in bed. She was so excited!! After a few minutes, she acted as if breakfast in bed was her usual routine. She was just too cute!
When we announced we had another surprise for her, she quickly finished the last bite of pancake and she was off. She found her new tricycle and broke into giggles. She is also quite fond of the Dora balloon. Dora has had several hugs and kisses- and using Dora to chase and scare Darby, well that is just a bonus in Lily Grace's eyes.
Daddy has pushed her all around the house and cove today. Watching the two of them together as he tries to teach her what to do with her feet is really something special.
This evening she put on her new '2" shirt and we took her to dinner. We love watching her try to make two with her fingers. She was all to proud to let you know that her shirt said "twooooo."
We ended the evening with a bowl of ice cream and of course sprinkles added by the birthday girl.
Her birthday party is tomorrow and we are looking forward to another day of fun.
As I reflect on today and how much fun we have had making her feel extra special, I'm not quite sure how much, if any of this she will remember. My only hope is that tonight, she went to bed with her heart feeling a little fuller. I know ours is!
Until next time... (or tomorrow evening provided I survive the party- Ha!)
