Camryn's Second Birthday Party

The Place: Camryn's House
The Theme: Winnie the Pooh
The Food: Hamburgers, Turkey Burgers, Hot Dogs, fruit, "Tigger Stripes Broccoli Salad", "Piglet's Party Mix", "Rabbit's Garden", "Eeyore's House Sticks" i.e. pretzel sticks, "Roo's MacaROOni", "Kanga's Kisses", and Winnie the Pooh cake :)


Celebrating Camryn's birthday over Spring Break allowed me to have some "Pinterest fun" for her party. :) It was fun to get ready to have people come over, to look forward to some first time visitors to our new home, and to spend an afternoon/evening celebrating Camryn!

We were hoping that we could have people on the deck and enjoy the spring-like weather we had been having, but rain and a cold front came through just before the party was supposed to start, and the temperature dropped over 15 degrees. It was a cozy party inside instead!

A couple hours before the party, my Grandma Betty and Uncle Drake arrived to visit. It was their first time making it to this side of the state to see our new place, and we were excited they could come!

The girls made Grandma Betty an early birthday present - little handprints. :)

And Uncle Drake was being his usual silly self with the girls - he loves playing with the kids!



Mem shared a snack with Camryn when she woke up from her nap. :)



Then the party started!! Lots of family, lots of food, lots of presents, and lots of cake!









 We gave her a little guinea pig...that wiggles when you touch it. Love guinea pigs. :)
 She loves all her new baby stuff :)
 Baby Annie!


One last gift from us - bean bags for the girls :)

Cake time!! It was incredibly cute, and JUST as yummy!!






It was a fun party celebrating our sweet little girl!

Big Girl gets her Big Wheel

We had Camryn's big birthday party yesterday (a blog post to come!), but we saved one present for her actual birthday today.

A story told in pictures...










She LOVES her new toy, and I can't wait for her to be a bit more independent with the pedaling, but for now it is good exercise for me and her!

Cam Cam is TWO!

Yay for TWO!

TWO was a fun age with Taylor, and we are really looking forward to Camryn being a TWO year old! There is more independence at this age, but still SO much sweetness along with it.

TWO words to describe Camryn's personality: silly and smart
(at TWO she picks up on everything - including what her big sister says and does :))


TWO characters she loves: Winnie the Pooh, and Doc McStuffins
(Playing with her Doc McStuffins Busy Book)

TWO favorite outdoor toys: Minnie Mouse Big Wheel and the slide


TWO favorite indoor toys: her babies & accessories, and anything she can push/carry around (shopping cart, stroller, bags, baby carrier, etc.)


TWO foods that Camryn loves: eggs with toast, and almond butter & jelly sandwiches
(the girls love when we do a 'picnic' in the living room)


TWO treats that Camryn loves: marshmallows and chocolate


TWO things Camryn is almost NEVER without: lambie and pink taggie (and if we are going to be honest - her paci, too)


TWO favorite books: "Old Hat, New Hat", and the "Alphabet" "Heads" "Tails" books by M. Fleet
 

TWO things Camryn loves to say: "Yes I do" and "No, that's mine" :)

TWO favorite songs: anything from the movie Frozen, and Slippery Fish

We love our little TWO year old so much!
