Her Day in Pictures


 Blowing up balloons during the wee hours of the morn, totally worth it.
 Opening up her first present of the day from her Mema.
 Birthday dress!
 Lunch at Chick-Fil-A with Grandee and Papa.
 Eating her favorite treat of all time. Ice cream, or as she says it: s'cream.
 Tasting the sweet nectar for the first time. Sister is a Barnard, through and through.
 Birthday dinner with free molten lava cake. Her mother was very pleased with this.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have a very special birthday, Grace turned two today!" The singing and clapping was ridiculously loud, louder than I have ever experienced. I thought Grace would burst into tears at any moment. Despite being startled out of her mind when they started clapping/singing, she held it together really well.
 Presents!

Final verdict on the cake: Meh. Sister friend is not a cake person. Give her ice cream and she is set, give her cake and she doesn't care. No smashing this year, one bite with a fork was good enough for her.

Her 2nd birthday was a success.

At least there wasn't cake crying this year!

Was she opening a Sandra Boynton book in the second-to-last picture? It looks like it, and I love her stuff.

Happy 2nd birthday, Grace!
