Happy Ya-Ya

Goodness gracious I can't believe my baby is 2! We've been telling her for a few days now that her birthday was coming. We were hoping if we told her, she would understand it a little more when the day came. She definitely understood it! The night before we went to dinner to celebrate with family. People would ask her why we were having the special dinner and she'd answer "Happy Ya-Ya". (she calls herself Ya-Ya) It was so cute! Then yesterday whenever her birthday was mentioned (if she was sang too etc) she would get a huge smile on her face and say "Happy Ya-Ya". It's not a Happy Birthday, it's a Happy Ya-Ya!

She was of course spoiled silly by everyone. Having a birthday 10 days after Christmas makes coming up with gift ideas a bit difficult. She already received everything a little girl could ever wish for. Well, now she has everything plus tons more.

Since we had a trip to the mountains planned for her actual birthday, we let her open presents the afternoon before. The boys had gone out and picked some special play food and pots/pans for her new kitchen. They were very excited for her to open them. Afterwards they all went upstairs to play! I love watching all three of them play together!

Here she is telling us that in the morning she was going to be two. One finger on each hand is a lot easier than two fingers on the same hand!!
