Marin turned 2 on December 27th and we celebrated with Curious George! We had the kitchen all decorated for her when she woke up. She LOVED all the decorations but the balloons were by far her FAVORITE. She also thoroughly enjoyed singing Happy Birthday and blowing out candles on her breakfast donut, cookie cake, and then her birthday cake. It was all day celebration. She opened presents and played all day with her gifts. We had a special date and then napped (she wanted me to sing Happy Birthday to her for naptime instead of the normal "night night" song. In fact, I would finish singing and she would say "mo" (more) and I would sing it again. Three times we sang Happy Birthday for naptime.) Then she got to bake and decorate her own cake. She had a ball. Happy Birthday sweet girl! We love you!

| She loves M&Ms. |
 |
| She loves Curious George and was so excited to see him "hanging" around for the day! |
 |
| Eagerly waiting for the birthday girl to wake up. |
 |
Every single present was wrapped because she had so much fun unwrapping at Christmas.
Thanks, Maye Maye. |
 |
| Marin had been practicing holding up her two fingers so we got her a big 2 balloon! |
 |
Curious Hollis!
(And yes those are boy pajamas but they have dogs on them and the girls love dogs.) |
 |
| This was Marin's reaction to us singing to her when she woke up. :o) |

I love that he is the kind of Dad that will wear the birthday hat.
And then let me take his picture in it.
Marin is going to look back on this picture one day and LOVE it! |
 |
Total sweetness.
|
 |
| Just a girl with her donut, balloons, and birthday hat. |
 |
| She didn't really go anywhere without the balloons. |
 |
| Thanks Mimi for the car roller coaster! We play with this everyday! |
 |
Thanks Maye Maye for the sand/water/sensory table!
(Today I actually put some towels down and put some water in it. She had a ball. Then I put some floral water beads in the water. So. VERY. Neat.) |
 |
| Thank you Aunt Betsy for the 2 shirt! |
 |
| Love, love, love this girl. |
 |
| She had to nap with her balloons. :o) |
 |
Marin helped bake and decorate her cake.
She had sprinkles, m&ms, and gummy monkeys. |
 |

She looks so much older! Crazy! Loved all of the birthday pics.
What a fun birthday! Can't believe she's two. They grow so fast.
And let me just say, regarding the puppy dog jammies...Avery has boy jammies in dinosaurs because she loves dinosaurs. For some reason, clothing makers don't think that little girls can love puppy dogs and dinosaurs. Our girls will show 'em!
