She was excited to party last Sunday and so were we! We had a small party at Grandma and Grandpa Swanson's house. It worked out well since everyone but us lives down there anyway. Grandpa grilled hamburgers and hot dogs and we made the rest of the food. I wanted to find something that was a bit more creative than just your normal pasta salad. This is what I came up with:
We just had lunch and then presents and cake. It took Allie a few minutes, but she did catch onto the fun of opening presents. She really enjoyed it since one of her favorite things to do is tear paper!
Allie really liked her cake. It was on the seat next to her when we drove down to Rockton, and she kept yelling for us to give her Elmo. The Elmo and Big Bird are actual toy cars that Allie got to keep.
After presents came cake, but before we could cut the cake and eat it, it was time to sing!
It was fun to see her goofing around with her cousins and her aunts and uncles. She was quite hopped up on sugar after the cake! Our little 2-year-old had a great time and tuckered herself out. She fell asleep in the car on the way home and she almost never falls asleep in her carseat anymore! It was a good day celebrating our baby.
