Whoo-Hoo She's Two! ...and Adam's first smiles

I can't believe it, but somehow my baby turned two years old this month. And such a milestone called for not one, but two birthday parties! Emily thrououghly enjoyed every minute of both of them, and the best part about two parties was (of course) two cakes! She was so enamored of her birthday cake that I went into her room to get her the next morning and the first words out of her mouth were "birthday cake!". She insisted that she be allowed to have some for breakfast (AFTER she finished her cereal), and she demanded that I sing Happy Birthday to her first, reciting her newly learned Birthday rule:"Emmy not eat the candles". How could I resist :)

Books are always a favorite, especially the pop up kind!


Glasses and jewlery from Aunt Gina were a big hit.


Cake....YUMMY!!


Now that's a big one!


Much better than drawing on the walls...thank you Grandma and Grandpa!

In other news, Baby Adam has been growing by leaps and bounds, and has even started smiling and "talking" to us. Six weeks at home alone with a newborn baby and the stinker decides to flash his first smiles (awake smiles, that is) while his mom was at a 12 hour crop. Luckily, my mom thought fast and was able to catch them on camera for me. Thanks Mom!
