Fun With Family

Yesterday we had a nice relaxing day just hanging out and playing with some of my new toys. Mallory and I also had matching Halloween shirts and PJs and we got our pictures taken....
Pappy did an excellent job painting my nails with my
new nail polish from Courtney.

Cheese! Well, sort of. Hee Hee!

My new Cars slippers from the Brangs.

A smooch from cousin Mallory.

And a hug too!

Jumping on the couch is so much fun!!!

Mallory had fun jumping too!

I took a picture with my Great Nana.

Bath time with Mallory.....

.....is so much fun!

Hi there!

I got to test out Mallory's bath foam. I actually did love it
even though my facial expression doesn't look like it here.

Splish! Splash!

Ducky towels!

Check out that cute little ducky!!!

Matching PJs and a picture with Great Nana.
Here is some video fun. #1) Mallory and me singing along to "The Wheels on the Bus". #2) Bath time fun splashing around (the floor was very very wet by the time we were done. Oopsie! Hee Hee)

It's My Party!

Today was my birthday party and I had a great time. Lots of friends and family came to celebrate with me.
Friends and Family that were here: Mama, Dada, Gammy, Pappy, Great Nana, Uncle Dave, Aunt Mica, Mallory, Courtney, Jason & Michele Otto, The Wykoffs (Matt, Kathy & Lilly), and the Brangs (Patrick, Ingrid, Carson, and Laney). Oma got to share in on the birthday celebration via Skype and saw me blow out my birthday candle. Technology really is amazing. I missed everyone that couldn't make it but I know you would have been here if it was possible. :-)
Here are many pictures from the party:
My awesome car cupcakes
that Mama made.

Just hanging out eating lots of good food.

Make a wish!

All of the kids got party hats that said Pit Crew.

I wore mine backwards. Hee Hee!

Hugs from my buddy Carson.

Me and my birthday friends:
Laney, Carson, me, Lilly, and Mallory.

Present time!

Mallory and I enjoyed my new toys.

Hanging out with Lilly.
Here is the video of me blowing out my birthday candle. Michele was the wonderful videographer again. That may have to be her yearly job. :-) Thanks to Courtney for "holding Oma" so that she could see, and to Matt for taking awesome pictures!
Mallory, Lilly, and I also played the game "Put the #95 on Lightning McQueen." Mama took videos of course:

 
 
Thanks again for a great day!

Fall Festival Fun

Yesterday was Mama's Fall Festival at school. I went with her to enjoy all of the fun festivities. Here are some pictures and videos.
Yup! That's a pumpkin. Mama and her Kindergarten team
decorated it!
This is me with my friends Troy and Noah. Mama was pregnant with me when she had their older brother in class. Troy is only a couple of weeks older than me (our due dates were really close together).

We both look a little confused.  Hee Hee!

This is me and my friend, Lilly.
Our Mamas work together.

Exploring in the hay.

Two cuties!!!

Cheese!

Mama, me, Lilly, and Kathy.
I enjoyed the music and dancing in the hay. Here are two videos of me having fun!
 
 
Today Pappy, Gammy, Great Nana, Uncle Dave, Aunt Mica, and Mallory arrived to celebrate my birthday. My party is tomorrow and Mama has been busy preparing lots of fun car things for it. More pictures to follow soon!!

You Say It's My Birthday?

Happy Happy Second Birthday to me!!!
Mama and I had a fabulous day today. She took a day off of work so that she could spend it with me. She insists on being the one to smooch me at 1:19....and really, I'm okay with that. :-) Mama made car cupcakes last night (this was a trial run for my birthday party on Saturday). Today we went to Discovery Place Kids in Huntersville, Kohl's (where I picked out my present - a Fisher Price Dr. Kit), Dada's school to bring him cupcakes, and to Ms. Angi's to drop of cupcakes to share tomorrow. Here are pictures from my day....
My fabulous car cupcakes.
They sure are delicious!

My birthday balloon.
I had a cupcake for breakfast....hee hee!
It was one without icing.

What? This is for me?
Thanks Oma and Opa!

I am going to be stylish!
Thank you for all of the great new clothes!

I got to skype with Aunt Michelle, Uncle Guenni, Kai, and Nora.
*I also got to skype with Gammy and Pappy & Oma AND
I received a phone call from my Great Grandmother in Germany
(and my Great Aunt Petra). Thank you!
We got to Discovery Place a few minutes before it opened
so we sat outside and watched the cars and trucks drive by.

Just doing a little banking at the drive through.

Gotta slide over to push that button!
It actually works like a real bank (minus
the money! ha ha)

Water table fun! "More toys please, Mama!"

So much fun!
Hey! Who is that adorable 2 year old in that big mirror?
Smooches for you! Hee Hee!

Ya know.....just taking my
alligators for a walk across the bridge!

Come sit with me, Mama!

Vrooom! Vrooom! Driving in the Nascar!

Enjoying a birthday cupcake at Dada's school.
A family picture!

Phew! What a busy morning!

1:19 - Happy Happy Birthday!
I'll always be Mama's "baby".
Hi Oma! Do I have any frosting on my face???
Hi, Mama!

Ms. Angi and some of my daycare friends.

A picture with Ms. Angi and my best bud, William.

Paging Dr. Harbin
Hee Hee, Mama, here comes the shot!
What a fun fun day it was!
Current likes: Cars, helping with household chores: wiping down my high chair, helping empty the dishwasher, putting the clothes into the dryer. I like to play with the sugar packets at restaurants (and put them back when I am done), playing with Sidney & Crosby, pusthing the buttons on our Halloween decorations that sing, and just being a happy toddler in general. :-)
Current dislikes: My Halloween costume. Dada ordered an Ewok costume for me and I DO NOT LIKE IT.
In other news:  I now have all four of my two-year molars. Am I done with getting teeth for a while???
 
A Trip Down Memory Lane.....
