Alexis Turns 2!

Since both Bill and I had to work on Alexis’ birthday and her party wasn’t until the weekend, we went out to HuHot for dinner to celebrate. I’ve done my homework and figured out what she can & can’t have for sauces and the cooks are great about separating her meal from others so there’s no cross contamination of allergens in other meals. She loves it!

I got her a bunch of balloons to make it feel more like a little mini party and Grandma Rose was able to join us since Grandpa was on the road for the week.

I usually make one big plate for the both of us figuring she’s going to eat off my plate too and sure enough! She really chowed down! So, after realizing she was going to likely eat everything on my plate too, I got in line & got another dish for me/us. And once I got back, the little piggie at that too!

For her birthday, she got a Magna Doodle and some other coloring toys. She loves to color and draw.

I had to take a picture with her balloons (Elmo is on the mylar balloon… he wouldn’t cooperate) because I have a similar one with me like this from when I was three. She was a total cheese ball!

And since I am making her “special” cake for her party with family, I had also sent birthday cupcakes to day care. For desert, she got to have one in her PJ’s complete with two candles. Not bad practice in blowing them out too!
