Boogie Birthday!

I never posted about the Boogie's birthday! I think she had a great day -- she woke up to balloons all over the apartment and a birthday banner on the wall. Every time she looked at it she would tell herself "happy birthday!" Throughout the day I gave her little gifts to open. That afternoon her Mom Mom and Pop Pop treated us to Chuck E. Cheese, then the rest of the family joined us afterward here at our place for cupcakes and ice cream. It was a really lovely day and I was very satisfied that she enjoyed it, which was, of course, my goal!

Not too sure about the toddler rides ...

... but loved the driving games.

She's a terrible driver.

See the slightly bewildered look on her face? That's pretty much how she looked the entire time we were there. :)

Family picture!

Singing happy birthday. She blew out the candles herself!

Small, toddler-sized cakes seemed appropriate for turning 2.

Yummy cu'cake!

More presents.

The H-man stayed for a while after everyone left. That sparkly confetti stuff was EVERYWHERE! This picture does not do it justice.

The last lonely cupcake.

Her birthday was Wednesday, and she spent Thursday through Saturday at 52. This is what happened on Sunday after church:

Exhaustion!
