Genne Turned Two

Our sweet baby Genne turned two this week and we had a great time celebrating her birthday and making it as special as possible. We did all of her favorite things and foods. We are all so lucky to have this little girl in our home. She is always so happy and fun to be around and loves to do body slamming( whenever I will lay down on the floor or Alex) , even though she have gotten sassier if that even possible but in a good way I would say. She is a really good eater and goes to sleep without a fight most days. We love every single one of her strong dependent personalities. 

Here is a recap of her 2nd birthday celebration .

Warning....Lot and lots of pictures

We started the morning with her favorite breakfast... Strawberries, blueberries, apple, grapes and water melon ( cut in the shape of a two)....Lot of fruits and a cup of juice ( she doesn't usually eat in the morning, she usually just want an apple and some juice) 

Then we headed to the Temple for a morning walk. She loves to play in the water and all the beautiful flowers there.

Beautiful shoes that my friend ( her other Mom) got her ....Thanks Leah, they were perfect for her birthday theme:)

Dancing

Playing in the water and picking out flowers.

Talking to Grandma Michelle who was wishing her a happy Birthday :)

After that we went to the playground to hangout with friends and play in the slides and sand box...She had a great fun and really good upper body strength...She was able to pull herself up while holding on to the bar.

After lunch, we all got a nap and woke up on time for dinner and cake. One of my friend made those really awesome cakes and I made a tutu for the cake stand...I really LOVE how it all turned out, exactly what I had in mind.

Then we did a little photo shoot for her and her cakes

Yep, the little one was all hers and we gave her a spoon.

Love her little cake crown in her head...Alex kept pointing at it while saying :" it is the number 2".... The kid LOVE number and yesterday, we found out that he can write the letters I, D and O which he said looks like an oval and an egg ( smart boy).

Big brother wanted in in the fun too.

Them it was time for presents...She opened all her presents without anyone's help and was super excited about her new baby doll and stroller. Now, she can play with her very own iPod with Alex.

We kept the Vinton tradition, so Alex got to open some presents too. We got him a couple of puzzles, he is into that lately and also anything that have to do with numbers and letters.

then, they played with their new toys and even got to stay up late until 11 o'clock ...It was a great day for all of us and we are so lucky to have this little cutie pie as part of our family

We had a little pool party for her the day before her birthday and the kids had a lot of fun.

 Happy Birthday baby girl. We love you and treasure every moment spending with you.
