Looks like I'm now two and I need to share some stories with you about how I celebrated the big day.
Today is my actual birthday, but we did most of our celebrating on Saturday with a party at our house with close friends and local relatives - I don't understand why my Iowa relatives don't want to travel the 10-12 hours to go to my two hour birthday party, what's the deal with that? - just kidding everyone!
Let me run you through how everything went leading up to the party and following the big event.
On Thursday Mom and Dad went and got me this great kitchen set as my big girl birthday gift. Now they expect me to make them coffee and dinner all the time.
"OK, Mom. Can I take your order?"
"OK, Mom. Can I take your order?"
On Friday Mom needed me to keep occupied while she made my birthday cake, so she let me play with all the towels and washcloths - I'm not sure she knew I would be having this much fun.
This was Mom's finished product - Not exactly what she had in mind (it was supposed to be Zoe from Sesame Street), but I'm told it still tasted pretty good... sorry to say, I'm not a cake fan!
We spent a lot of Saturday outside since it was such a nice day and it worked out great since another gift that I received was a slide - in addition to so many other extraordinary things!
Here I am with Grandma and the slide.
I was telling G-ma that I'm not quite sure about this.
Later on, Nik and I were having a super time playing on the slide... I was like, "Yo. Nik. Get movin', it's my turn!"
Anyway, so that's just a little of what happened at my birthday party. Mom and Dad didn't have time to take a lot of pictures since they were so busy entertaining my peeps; therefore, Kristi not only took my two year pictures, but she also took some candid shots of me and my party... be looking for those in a later post.
Since the party we've been busy just being us... Dad injured his back while making room for my kitchen set in my play room, so he's been laid up, but I think he'll be back to normal soon. In the meantime, I've had fun having my Daddy around more since he hasn't been able to make it to work - yay Daddy!
Keep it real,
Lydia

It looks like you had a great b-day...sorry we missed it...I LOVE your kitchen set...I bet you are able to make lots of yummy things for your mom and dad.
Hopefully your b-day present from us will make it to your house by this weekend.
Tell your dad to take it easy and we will pray that his back gets better soon.
Lots of love,
