Happy 2nd Birthday Emmy...Minnie Style

Our sweet Emery turned two! I can't believe its been two years since we added her to our new family. We of coarse had to decorate her door for her birthday although she wasn't sure what to think when she got up in the morning.

But she for sure loved her Minnie birthday balloons. This girl loves balloons and all things Mickey & Minnie so that made picking a theme for her birthday easier.

Our Minnie cupcakes

She loved blowing out her candle and did it all on her own

I love this sweet family of ours

Of coarse we had ice cream as well as cup cakes. It was the perfect night for the kids to play outside so the parents could visit inside where it was nice and quiet. A funny thing was that Matt was the only dad there. Corey(Mindi) was a drill, Nick(Brit) & Kyle(Nic) was at a scout camp out, Kerry(Joy) was working, and Kade(Teann) was on a business trip. 

There was plenty of dress up fun for all

Then it was time for presents. She definitely got spoiled

Matt made these super cute invites that I found on Pintrest. We had such a fun night celebrating our sweet girl with our close friends and family. She seemed to also really enjoy it. She is at such a fun age. The world is such a discovery for her every day. I love seeing life thru a child's eyes. She loves to be outside and do just about everything. She is SO smart and is a really great listener and does pretty good communicating. She is down to one nap a day and sleeps at least 12 hours at night. Some days she really still needs a second nap but by the time she realizes that its to late for a nap. She is a pretty good eater and loves all things associated with "kid" foods...pasta, pizza, cottage cheese and peaches, apples, string cheese, fishes, and chicken nuggets. She is also a sugar/treat lover and will do just about anything for a treat.  She is in 2T clothes, size 6 shoes, and size 4 diapers. She has the thickest light blonde hair of all the girls. She is on and off interested in the potty. Loves Mickey Mouse Club House. We have taken away her bottle and started weaning with the binki. She does pretty good until we get to the late afternoon and then she is super sad....which is really hard for everyone. She loves to be read to, cuddled and rocked before she goes to sleep help me with anything and everything. I love that she will let me cuddle her since I feel like I missed so much cuddling when she was little while building the house. She is pretty much my shadow. She has the cutest little curly hair and actually likes her hair done and brush her teeth so her hair isn't in her face. She gives some of the craziness(sweet & dirty) looks you've ever seen and is so animated. She loves her older sisters but if she gets bugged the neighbors can hear it but we are attempting to work thru that. Happy birthday Em we love you SOOO much!
