Annie Brooke turns 2 !!!!!

It's hard to believe that my sweet girl is 2! These years have honestly flown by quicker than I ever imagined! She is growing up so fast and becoming a sweet and sassy (sometimes more sassy and less sweet!) little girl. I think she even looks more grown up!

To celebrate Annie's birthday we decided to throw this big party in New York and drop a ball at midnight. It was crazy, there were way too many people there, some of them were not invited! :) We actually had a quiet day and night at home. The girls came over that day and we had a yummy pancake birthday breakfast and had tons of fun playing. My parents came over to bring Annie a balloon since we were not having her party until Sunday. Mitch, Annie and I had our own special party around 6:28 which is when Annie was born. We put some cool whip and sprinkles on a cookie and stuck 2 candles in it. We started to sing and Mitch lit the candle. I told Mitch to back up so I could just get Annie in the picture and before we knew it Annie was saying "Hot, hot?" as she was holding her fingers right over the top of the flame!! AHHH, we freaked out and I helped her blow it out super fast! Luckily, we did not have to visit the ER on her second birthday. Lesson learned- Do Not trust a 2 year old near an open flame! Annie loved the cookie, mostly the sprinkles and cool whip!

On Sunday we had a small family birthday party with pizza, cupcakes, and ice cream! The theme- Madagascar- or as Annie calls it "Move it , move it!"! She is a little obsessed with it and Cars believe it or not! We took her to the party store to pick out decorations for her parties and she chose Madagascar and Cars! So silly! Oh well, I'm sure there are many Disney princess birthday parties in our future! Annie had so much eating cupcakes and then she went around to everyone and wanted some of their cupcake and ice cream after she had finished her own! She will be your best friend if you have food! She loved opening her presents! She became a pro at Christmas! She wanted to play with each thing immediately after opening it and then come back to the others a few minutes later to open them!

We will celebrate her birthday in Kentucky next weekend and have a Cars party with the boys! Here are a couple pics!

We are so very blessed to be Annie's parents. She has made our lives so joyful and we love her more than she will ever know! Happy Birthday Annie Brooke!

Diving face first into her cookie!




She got much closer after I took this picture!


What a nut!
