My second Birthday...July 23, 2009

We celebrated my second birthday at the end of July. My Tio Tom came into town as did my grandparents (Bama and Pata). I also had a birthday party at a park.

here are some photos (out of order) from that week

Nothing says party like a tutu over jeans, a monster t-shirt, and a teddy ballerina purse

Carpenter

My Nona bought me a little toddler table and chairs for Christmas and my mom let me have it early. But she made me work for it. I had to build it myself.

Gathering my tools:
Laying out the parts I need:
Reading the instructions:
This is a 2 screwdriver job.
Consulting the directions again and grabbing an Allen key
Such hard work and concentration

aah, the finished product: a chair
Enjoying the table the next morning

Prezzies

The morning after my party, I got to open some gifts. i was very excited about certain presents, as you can tell

Wow, a bike from Gran and Grandpa:
ooh, ribbon and a card
Give that back to me please

Another box on which to climb
Mom, some privacy while I play with my legos in my diapers, pleaseI also REALLY love my water table from Auntie Rachel
Thanks everyone
