Carli Turns Two!!!

Can you believe it? Our little princess has turned two.


The day started with cupcakes in Sunday School. Carli brought plenty to share. White funfetti cupcakes with white icing and an Elmo on top. She even was able to share with others since there were so many left over.

Lunch was at her favorite place to eat...McDonalds! She loves the french fries there and was able to play (or "pay" as she says) when she was done. She even acccomplished two hurdles while there: she climbed into the car all by herself and climbed on top of the turtle.

After a good nap, Carli met everyone at the church for her party. The theme...ELMO of course! I think she was a little overwhelmed at all of her family being there when she arrived. She laughed, ran to me, and then saw her Elmo on the table, swiping him off.

Then it was time for cake. The face in the picture is priceless. Carli seems to be saying, "Mine, all mine!" After two candles were lit, Carli (with a little help) blew out her candles. But when they were out, Carli was a little upset. I don't think she liked that the candles were out, or maybe it was that Daddy had helped her do it.
Carli really enjoyed the cake! She used her hand, and her mouth, to enjoy every drop. She was a wonderful, gooey mess when she was done.


After her snack, was her favorite part, presents. We were curious to see how she would do since she loved opening gifts at Christmas. She wasn't as wild, but she did enjoy opening them. Among her gifts were: building blocks, an Elmo hat and backpack, books, clothes, and more. Of course, she sat right down and began to read the books.


The only thing missing on the day, was "Aussie," her big brother, whom Carli loves with all her heart.

After all was said and done, Carli was a wild one running around the house. Guess that is what you get with a beautiful two year old girl who has been pumped with a cupcake early in the morning, cake and ice cream at her party, and all of her family around who love her very much. Joe and I are so blessed to have her in our lives. We can't imagine our lives without her in it. Carli, so you are so loved!
