"How old are you?" "TWO!"

Yesterday was A's second birthday! We had afternoon snack with her class at school and it was a lot of fun. Her friend came back to school just for the party and the class as a whole had a blast! We did frozen yogurt sundaes with blackberries, raspberries, bananas and m&ms. Overall it was a lot of fun and both Chris and I got to go. Here are a picture of A with her daddy at school:

He was a HUGE hit and she had to grant permission for people to sit on his lap. They asked her. We are kind of concerned/amused by this type of development. I've noticed when I drop her off that the kids in her class always say hello to her and bring her a stuffed puppy that she apparently loves. It is like the offering they bring her when I set her down in the classroom. We're hoping it is because she is sooooo sweet (which everyone says she is) and not because she is a tyrant. We find it curious that she has her 2 year old friends "trained" (for lack of a better word) to do this though.

She also has known it is her birthday so it has been a lot of fun. If you ask her whose birthday it is she says, "ME!" and then when you ask her how old she is she answers, "Two!" I have it on video, but will have to get it some other time. 

We did cake for her last night and opened her presents. She got a lot of Dr. Seuss books, enough that I'm deeming this her Dr. Seuss birthday. She loves them though and wants to read each one of the every day. She also got new shoes, which she refuses to take off really. She is definitely going to be a shoe girl, so we are in trouble. She also got a lot of good clothes. We are clearly blessed. Here are a couple of pictures of her cupcake from last night:


 

Today we had several of her church friends over for more cake and ice cream. We were originally going to go to the park, but we got our weekend downpour about the time we were starting to party so it ended up being at our place. We had six kids with parents in our place and it was fun. We did some fingerpainting (a wonderful grandparent sent her all the colors imaginable for fingerpaints), some toy playing and some tricycle riding. They sort of interacted with each other, and it was fun with the three boys (all brothers) that were here. Here are some pictures of the party today:
