Hattie’s birthday!

Birthday cake pancakes for the birthday girl!  They don’t look awesome, but they are actually pretty good!

After library time we picked up balloons and then Jamba Juice treats.

Then the girls helped me make a birthday cake before nap time.  I really want to never make a birthday cake again—they just never really turn out—I hope I remember by the next birthday.  This one looked okay in the end, but was very tricky to keep together as I was doing it.

When Brian got home I tried to get some 2-year old pictures of Hattie, with not much success:

The quality of these pictures (in auto mode on my camera) made me decide after this to finally start using manual mode on my camera.

When Brian got home we went over to Grandma and Papa’s house to celebrate Harriet!

Opening gifts.

Ending her day reading books with Grandma.

She looks worn out!  I hope she had a good day and that she felt how much we love her.  She is such a light in our life!  She makes every moment so much better and we are lucky to have her!
