Two going on Four.

Lula turned two this month and had a wonderful birthday. We celebrated her birthday with a trip to the Strong Museum of Play and all kinds of goodies! She was so overjoyed to see all of the Sesame Street characters in person. When we walked in to the museum she put her hands on her cheeks and squeaked,"OH MY GOODNESS!". Then she was a tornado or excitement. We ended our time at the museum with a visit to the Butterfly exhibit. We were the only people in the exhibit which was an extra treat. It was so much fun to see the Museum through Lula's eyes and feel so excited and happy for her to have a place that is so special right her in our town that we can visit with her as she grows. This year we gave Lula Play-Doh and lots of hugs and kisses. To end the day she enjoyed some Mac N cheese from Dinosaur BBQ, and a yummy vanilla cupcake.
For her party this year Erin and I made butterfly decorations and Magnoilia's cupcakes with Blue frosting.. just what Lula asked for: "What should we do for your birthday Lula?" "Butterflies Mama." "And what kind of cake would you like; a big cake or little cakes?" "Little." " And what flavor?" "BLUE!".
Lula's 2nd Birthday Menu:
Appetizers, Guacamole , Pimento Dip and Fresh Fruit.
Dinner: Cam's Pizza and Manpa's Wings

Lula had a wonderful time at her party. She opened her gifts, played with everything and was a very very sleepy toddler when the end of the day came.
