Lillian's 2nd Birthday Party

Lillian and her friends partied hard yesterday! When Lillian came down from her nap and saw the cake and balloons, she was so excited. She wanted to dive into the cake right then. I had to distract her and get her to come watch for her guests to arrive. After about everyone arrived, we ate cake...and boy was it a mess! We had green icing...so little green goblins everywhere! The cake was delicious and the kids had fun with it. Lillian loves the Backyardigans, so we had that as our theme. It worked out well, because the rest of the time, the kids played in the backyard! Lillian had received a gift on Friday from an online friend of a Backyardigans music cd and it was her favorite thing at the party! I put my little boom box out on the deck and planned on having it playing while they all played, but Lillian pretty much stayed on the deck almost the whole time dancing to the music! Now I know to get that out when I want her to burn off some energy! We had a couple of kids from Lillian's class come and it was good to visit with and get to know their moms. We also enjoyed our playgroup friends coming to play. Here are some pictures from our big day yesterday!
