Elsie's Birthday!

Elsie turned 2 on the 21st! We decided to celebrate it that Saturday (a couple days late) for a number of reasons, but she really enjoyed herself! She loved opening all the presents - it was a girly birthday for sure. Here is a little highlight on Elsie with some of her favorites as of late:
Book - a homemade padded nursery rhyme book
Movie - Winnie the Pooh
Color - Pink (of course)
Toy - Whatever Peter has at the time
Song - tie between "Jesus wants me for a Sunbeam" and "I'm so Glad When Daddy Comes Home"
Hobby - coloring (she's game any time!)

In the morning I baked her cake, so she had batter for her first course of breakfast. Ummmm. She naturally really enjoyed it.

The results....a pink butterfly cake! She really liked the looks of it, but when it all boiled down, her serving remained untouched and she went for seconds on the ice cream instead.


Present time! She loved this part! I was so proud of Peter, he was so excited for her and didn't get jealous one bit.

However, he is asking for a RED tutu for his birthday in July. Hmmm. We'll see.


Elsie caught on really fast as to what a girl's supposed to do with a tutu.


My mom had a beautiful cupcake quilt made and Elsie loves it (almost as much as me)! It is the cutest blanket I have ever seen and the perfect fit for our spunky Elsie!
