Here is a video of Makayla's Birthday day and birthday party that we had last weekend. On her birthday during the day we hung out and played. I wanted to take her somewhere special after her nap, but she decided not to take one...... so towards the after noon she was getting a little crabby. But then Daddy came home and she got her second wind. We took her to Red Robin, her favorite place to eat and had a birthday dinner. She loves their grilled cheese. Not sure what it is about their grilled cheeses but she eats the whole thing, which these days she is a very picky eater. On the way home she fell a sleep with her balloon from Red Robin in her hand, but when we drove into the garage she was up and ready to go again, We went in and opened presents from us, grandma and papa and the Cheyenne group. Afterward, we had two little pumpkin cakes to celebrate her being "2". After looking at pictures, they kinda look like something else.... I'm sure every one will get what I mean when you see the pictures :) Oh well I thought they were cute.
We decided to have a birthday party for her on Saturday at this place called "The Little Gym" We signed her up for classes there every Saturday morning and she really seems to love going. The class runs through January and I figured this would give us a little something to do over the winter since it is sooooo long here. Everyone had fun playing, singing, jumping, and dancing around the gym. Then after our fun in the gym we had cake, juice and opened presents. I hope everyone had a fun time, we enjoyed having everyone there and want to thank you all for making her day special!!!
I can't believe she is two and another year has passed. Anyone that has ever told me that time flies so enjoy her while she's young is so right!!! Believe me, I'm making sure to enjoy every little second I can with her.
I love you Makayla,
Love Mommy
We made an appointment like we did last year to go see Santa at MOA. We were not sure how she was going to handle Santa this year,but she did pretty good! She actually acted allot like she did last year when we took her, just not sure what to think of him. But she was excited before we got there to go, in the car she kept saying "Here we come Santa"! But once we actualy made it there and through the long line much of her excitement was gone. Waiting in that line is kinda hard for a little 2 year old even for most adults at times. You wouldn't think you would have to wait in line for this Santa since you have to make an appointment to see him. But what they fail to tell you until you get there, is there are several people scheduled in your time slot. But I'm glad we were able to go it was fun!!!
