The birthday celebration was a weekend long affair. Saturday during Maggie's nap, we filled her playroom with balloons and set up her big present from us. The pretend kitchen, which was stocked with play food and dishes she had previously received, was a huge it. Later that afternoon, our friends the Treats came over for Maggie's birthday dinner. I dusted off my Wilton tools and made an Elmo cake for Maggie, which was a running theme of this year's birthday. I did Elmo's face free hand and was thrilled with the way it turned out, especially given my limited artistic skills. After dinner, and hyped-up on sugar, Maggie and Camilla chased the balloons around and had lots of laughs. It was hard to tear Maggie away from her new toys at bedtime, but as we were turning out the lights and giving kisses Maggie said, "Nite-nite Birthday!"
During church Sunday, I noticed that one of Maggie's two-year molars had arrived, right on schedule. My baby is quickly becoming a little girl, full of spunk, kindness, wonder, determination and love. I am so grateful she chose me as her mom.

We'll worry about the metal in the microwave lesson later.

Looks like a great time was had by all! Nice cake too! So hard to believe that Maggie is 2...where does the time go?!?!?
Nice job on the cake and the kitchen is every little girl's dream kitchen. Too cute. I sure miss the cute little girly stuff that we are not going to have around here. I can't believe how time flies Peg. She is already 2? Wow just hard to imagine.
Great job on the cake Peggy!
