Madison's 2nd Birthday

Once again, I am SO aware of how time flies - I can't believe I am writing a post about my little baby girl turning 2 years old! What a fun time we had celebrating her birthday. We had a Minnie Mouse party at my parent's house to celebrate with family and a few close friends. One of Madison's favorite shows is Mickey Mouse Clubhouse on Playhouse Disney. She had the perfect red and white outfit and we borrowed Minnie ears from Naomi Bang to top it all off. What a cutie pie! Here are some of my favorite moments that we captured from the day. You can see how excited she was and how cute - I love the one with her ears sticking out :-)

On her first birthday, she didn't even want to touch her cake. But this year, she decided all on her own, to bend over (after blowing out her candles) and LICK THE CAKE! It was priceless.

For her birthday this year, she received many fun gifts, but one of her absolute favorites was the sand & water table from Aunt Robin and Aunt Jesse. I know this will provide many, many hours of fun and entertainment this summer on our deck :-) Thanks Aunt Robin!

Then, on the day of her actual birthday (April 22), Joseph and I surprised her with a new pink scooter (just like the one she LOVES to ride at her cousin Jason's house!) and pink helmet. She is really good at riding it! She just has to perfect moving side-to-side. We also enjoyed some fun time at Chuck E. Cheese that night - she is LOVING the merry-go-round these days!
