A few more bday pics

We went to Chuck E Cheese with Val and Jonathan and our friends, Brad and Heather and Braden. Charlotte had fun on the play equipment but her favorite thing was to do was to drop the coins in all the slots. It didn't matter if we'd already put enough in to play the game, she just wanted to keep putting them in.

Here's our little party at the Hemphill's the night before Thanksgiving. Mom made a ton of cupcakes and even though Char's only two, we had to have candles for all the cakes!


Somebody's got to teach this girl how to eat a cupcake!!


PopPop and Gigi's bday present


More cupcakes the next night... blowing out the candles was her favorite part, we had to do it several times.

Charlotte turns 2!

Here are some pics from our bday weekend in Conway. Charlotte's cousin, Kirsten, is exactly one year older so we tried to celebrate both birthdays. Kirsten had a Princess Tea Party but we got there too late and they were finishing up everything as we rolled into town. So we just had a mini-party at the house.







This was the first time Char's ever had her nails painted. She saw Kirsten's toes and thought she needed colored toes as well. I didn't see it going very well but Kaleena was up to the challenge. Can you believe Charlotte sat perfectly still while Kaleena painted her itty-bitty toes? I couldn't! She even went back for another round of purple after this one dried.


She found some of Kirsten's dress up beads and loved putting them ALL on.


Kaleena saved half of the cake for us since we didn't make it to the party. It was still delicious!
