Reese is TWO!!!

Wow! We can't believe she is already 2 years old. It really does seem like yesterday we were bringing her home for the 1st time. Her Birthday party isn't until Saturday, but we still managed to make her 'real' birthday a special one.

Wake up Birthday Girl!!!

I had made banana nut muffins the night before, so that was her special birthday breakfast (included with a candle of course!) We ran errands most of the morning and then met up with some friends for an impromptu pizza lunch at their restaurant. Reese enjoyed playing with the other kids her age and 'playing' some arcade games.

Reese has become quite a ham for the camera. She flashes a big fake smile and often says "That was a good one!" after the picture is taken.

After quiet/nap time, we Skyped with Gamma & Poppy so they could wish Reese a Happy Birthday and see her open a few presents. Reese is all set for the lake this summer and now has a luggage collection to start traveling the world. Of course, Reese had to wear her football jersey for the gift opening.

Her favorite gift was the "credit card" (aka Toys R Us gift card) from Aunt Anne. She immediately shouted "Ooooo, credit card, go shopping, yeah!" Lee instinctively reached for his wallet and made sure everything was right where it should be. We are a little concerned for what the teenage years have in store for us.

We met Mammy, The General, Sheppy & Kimbo in town for Reese's Birthday supper, complete with a piece of chocolate cake (which everyone shared.)

Reese had such a good birthday, she woke up this morning and asked for it to be her birthday again. We can't wait to see how she reacts for her party this weekend!
