Second Birthday

On Ashlyn's actual birthday, both Joey and I took the day off. We were excited to get to spend the day with her. We all woke up bright and early. Ashlyn started her day with a special smile face pancake. She LOVED it! We hung around the house for a bit, and then I took Ashlyn to get her hair cut. She did a good job of sitting still. After her haircut, I went over to my sister's to work on her birthday cake. Joey decided to take Ashlyn to a movie. They went and saw "A Christmas Carol". Joey said she really enjoyed it. After the movie, we headed out to dinner. We went to one of our favorite pizza places. I have been going there my entire life. My parents, brother, sister, brother-in-law, and 2 friends joined us for dinner. Ashlyn had a good time eating pizza and hanging out with family. After dinner, we headed back to our house for cake and presents. Ashlyn got some really nice gifts. She had a blast opening everything. She wanted us to take everything out of the box right away. Her aunt and uncle got her a really neat tricycle. It is a little big for her, but she really liked it. It is even Little Mermaid of course! Ashlyn got really excited when she saw her cake. She loved it when we sang Happy Birthday. She even blew out the candle like a pro! We let Ashlyn play with her gifts for a bit, but if was an bedtime because she had a big day the next day. Ashlyn had a great day and we have a lot of funny spending her very special 2nd birthday with her.

The cake my sister and I made her. We didn't notice until right before we cut it, but we forget to add her nose.

She loved opening presents

She decide that the bow would look best on the top of her head.


She had such a great time!
