Grace turns 2!

So this entry is late...very late, but I have an excuse. We have been on holidays...YAH! We just got back and now life is slowly getting back to normal. The laundry pile is diminishing, bathrooms are cleaned, floors vacuumed. The kids have already started the dreaded summer sentence, "I'm bored!" I finally have a minute to sit down and catch up on some fun things we have been doing.

On June 25th we had Grace's 2nd birthday party. Her birthday isn't until July 1st, but I knew we would be away so we celebrated a week early. I loved planning this party! I did a ladybug theme and it all turned out SO cute, the food was great as well. The only downside of the day was that Grace wasn't feeling 100%. Poor little girl!

This is the birthday ladybug dress I made Grace.

I made mini chicken salad pitas, pb & jam sandwiches for the kids, chicken bow tie salad, fruit tray and 3 different kinds of cookies! It was so yummy!!

I had so much fun making this cake...which took 3 hours! I love how it turned out.

My sick little birthday girl.

I had to share this picture of Carson relaxing on the swing. He is the WORST picture taker ever. LOL! I love this one of him.

Grace after some Tylenol...and a LOT of cake. She was much happier.

I can't believe how fast 2 year has gone by. It seems like yesterday we were bringing her home from the hospital. The past two years have brought us so much joy. Grace brings us so much happiness and laughter. There is never a dull moment when she is around. She has such a fun, bubbly personality. We LOVE you dolly!!
