Caroline turns TWO!!!

Happy Birthday, Sweet Caroline!



Caroline turned TWO this past Saturday, July 30th


I can't believe my sweet baby is already TWO years old!



Here is a little video of Caroline saying how old she is. She is such a cutie!






We put up this "Happy Birthday" banner the night before her birthday and when she walked in, it was the first thing she noticed. She asked what it was and I told her it was her birthday and sang to her. She had the biggest smile on her face and I thoroughly enjoyed her joy as the realization rolled over her face that it was her special day! I can't express how much joy I had watching her enjoy her day!

Isn't this embroidery so cute? I love her birthday outfit!



A little special Kermit watching just before her friends arrived!

We have been planning to have a party for Caroline with family once they come for Abigail's birth thinking that she would have been born by now, but she hasn't. So, we decided to call a couple of Caroline's friends to come over for a last minute party. They played for a while, we had pizza, I made a cake and we had ice cream then Caroline opened presents. She had a blast and I am so glad we got to do this with her friends!

The last minute cake I threw together with my favorite: rainbow chip icing. Caroline loved it too!




She actually did most of the blowing the candles out herself. She just needed a little help from Daddy!




Loving her cake and ice cream!

Caroline with her presents: Fingerpaint and Bath Soap Paint from us, Musical Intruments from her Aunt Sue & Uncle Ken, a wooden clock puzzle from Micah and crayons, doodle pad & outfit from Noah & Lily Henry. She has thoroughly enjoyed all of them!

Here are the musical intruments that Aunt Sue and Uncle Ken gave Caroline. All the kids had a blast playing with the intruments. Here is a video of them playing.

Later that night playing with the bath soap paint in the tub. It took her a while to warm up to it, but when she did, she couldn't get enough!
