This is a major picture overload, but there was just so much cute. I'll keep this post as wordless as possible and save my musings for the official 2 year update (I just have to do that before she turns 3 right?)
Without further ado... Lily's 2nd birthday party:
{The party was loosely polka-dot themed, so of course all the food was round!}
{Pretty much the only thing she ate besides cupcakes.}
{Fancy baby toes by Nani.}
{Balloon stand-off)
{With this many 2-year-olds, present opening is a group activity.}
{She actually blew out both candles, I was shocked!}
{I only gave her one. I said she could have another later, but she forgot about it. I'm the meanest.}
{Oh hey, I'm 2!}
{Just attempting a BFF photo shoot, no big deal.}
{And then the kids were like: "Holy s#!%, bubbles!"}
{Do mermaids breathe out bubbles when not in the water? Cuuuuuuuz I think she might be a mermaid.}
{And then the clouds parted and birds sang.}
{She made like seven adults chase her around that tent in for a good 5 minutes. Naked running... that is how I end all of my parties.}
Nothing makes me happier than watching the people I adore loving on my sweet girl. She had such a blast, this one will be hard to top.
Linking up for Wordless Wednesday with The Paper Mama, 5 Minutes for Mom, Parenting By Dummies, Project Alicia, And Then She Snapped, Live and Love Out Loud, Naptime Momtog, and Jenni from the Blog.
