This weekend, we celebrated Lily's 2nd birthday with an owl themed "Look Whoo's 2" party. The weather was perfect and the kids enjoyed spending time outside jumping in the bounce house and playing on the swing set. Before the guests arrived, we attempted to get a few family pictures with the birthday girl. I think two is one of the hardest ages to get good pictures. They are so busy and there are so many other things they want to be doing rather than sitting still for pictures.
After pictures, the kids played in the bounce house while we waited for the pizza to arrive. Lily loves bouncing and I was able to capture a few cute pictures of her in action.
After a yummy pizza dinner, we opened Lily's presents. She got so many cute things including some new clothes and nightgowns, a pillowcase with her name on it, and two new baby dolls.
One of her favorite gifts was a Fur Real puppy from Parker and Eden that barks and walks. Lily LOVES puppies so it was no surprise when she carried it around the rest of the night giving it lots of hugs!
After presents, we cut the cake! I could not find an owl cake pan so I had to free hand everything this year. It wasn't perfect, but it tasted good, which is really all that matters in the end!
Lily was so precious while we were singing "Happy Birthday" to her. She loved the extra attention she was getting and made some of the cutest faces. She also did a great job blowing out the candles on her first try. She was a huge fan of her cake and made a huge mess to prove it!
Last up was the pinata. Lily wasn't that interested in the pinata, which I expected. She took a few swings before turning it over to the bigger kids, who all loved it! She became a lot more interested once the candy started falling, which if you know Lily, is no surprise!!
We are so thankful for everyone who came out to help Lily celebrate her birthday.We had a great evening with family and friends and know that she felt very loved on her special day!
