Ella's 2nd Birthday

Ella turned 2 yesterday and, in true Ella fashion, took it all in stride.  She was very aware of what was happening and why and took lots of time to attend to each card and gift just like a big girl.  Her favorite comments while opening gifts were, "Oh my goodness!" and "So exciting!" Today, she is enjoying talking about her party and playing with her new toys.

Here are a couple of pictures from the big day.

The Dora cake... the whole party ended up being Dora-themed, with lots of "Dora" gifts.


Trying to get a family pic in.


New rain boots and fairy wings... a true Ella fashion statement!


Sharing some cake and ice cream with Brady.  He did pretty well for not understanding why it was all about Ella.


At home on her Dora chair with her balloons.  "I love balloons!", she said.

I will tell Ella that "Ty's sister Stacey" (your name to her) said Happy Birthday. All is well here... hope all is well in sunny SD and that we see you soon! Will you be coming home to meet your new nephew?
