Happy Happy Birthday

Alisha says: We now have a two year old. She can be very sweet but we are also discovering the "terrible twos" at other times. We love her to pieces and had a fun birthday weekend celebrating her. Saturday which was actually the day before her birthday we took her to the train park in Scottsdale where she got to ride a mini train and a carousel. She likes trains and says "choo choo" a lot.  

We stopped on the way home and got some birthday balloons to decorate. She also just graduated from her backward facing infant car seat to a forward facing one.

Birthday morning. She woke up to a new kitchen play set. She loved the banners and balloons and kept pointing to them saying "happy, happy".

Strawberries are one of her favorite fruits right now and so I made her a strawberry cake.

She also loves hats and wore her birthday hat around all afternoon. We had Dave's family and my parents over for a little party with dinner, cake and ice cream. She liked being the center of attention and got lots of new toys including a wagon from Grandma and Grandpa Welsh, a cute bunny backpack filled with lots of snacks (she loves snacks and is always asking for a snack) from Grandma and Grandpa Bezanson, a cute dress and money from Grandma and Grandpa Hawkins and a play castle from the Leavitt's.
