Maya was the belle of the ball this weekend as family gathered to celebrate her second birthday. The actual birthday isn't until this Thursday the 25th, but we had a grand time getting the birthday celebration started early.
There was cake and a wide variety of presents, including such hits as a big box of jewelery, a soccer ball, and a bike helmet. Owen performed his job as gift opening assistant with style, and everyone but Owen (there is apparently no rest for the gift opening assistant) even got the chance to take a nap on Saturday afternoon.
What birthday isn't improved by ample cuddle time?
The group even managed to squeeze a little birthday celebration for me into the mix. The biggest surprise for my April 5, 40th birthday was Amy's plan for a three-day getaway to Vegas for just the two of us in a couple of weeks. The hotel and the flights are booked, child care is arranged (thanks Grammie and Grampy) ... and I'll be picking out our shows this week.
All in all, it was a wonderful weekend.
I have a couple of movies to add before I end this post. The first is Maya showing off her ABC skills.
And here she is bearfooted ...
Happy Birthday, Maya!
