Lola's 2nd Birthday

Sunday was Lola's big 2nd birthday. It was only yesterday that I was doing squats in my family room trying to calm a colicky baby. Thank goodness that passed! Looking at her now, she's a bright, very active, talkative toddler who mirrors her sister's every move. It's been fun to watch her grow. (and it's a whole lot easier to communicate with her these days, too!)

I have a feeling this Fall is going to be a fun one. Bring on the pumpkin patches!

Her family party was "circus" themed. I'd be lying if I said I didn't know she'd be wearing this dress. I've only been saving it for 24 months. No bigs...no, I'm not weird like that at all.

Feeling a little overwhelmed by all the singing and attention. Her eyes say it all!

Don't be surprised if this is our holiday card this year. Wrangling family members to stare at the camera in unison is like herding cats. This may have to do. 

It was a great day. One of the hallmarks of a successful party, as far as I'm concerned, is leftover chocolate cake. Check and done!
