Olivia's 2nd birthday: The celebration!

Because her birthday was on Sunday the first thing we did when we woke up was go to church.
Well I take that back, we actually had to go "touch" the balloons first.
She was obsessed with them and always asked if she could touch them. Of course we did everything she wanted and would pick her up so that she could whack them. She loved them so much and always got the biggest smile on her face when she saw them!
After church we put her down for a little nap and made sure everything was ready for her when she woke up.
Grandpa Antone was still here but had to make a long drive down to California so we planned on doing cake and presents a little early.
I think she knew it was a special day and whenever we would ask her about her birthday she would get all excited and either point to her presents and cake or the happy birthday sign on the wall.
This year I made a chocolate cake with cream cheese frosting.
And it definitely was yummy.
Olivia loved the frosting and was constantly trying to swipe the cake with her little finger so she could have a lick.
She loved getting sung to and tried so hard to blow out the candles, but her little puff of air was just not strong enough, so daddy had to help.
When we gave her a slice of cake all she wanted to eat was the frosting.
Yum!
After cake we opened all her presents which she loved.
She was really good at ripping them open and if she had a hard time she would say, "hep" (help).
She got so excited about all her gifts and would even occasionally squeal.

She definitely is a spoiled little girl and got some really fun stuff this year.

Here are some pictures:
 (Some of these pictures are so crappy, but at least you get the idea.)

Her cake.

I had originally planned on doing roses all over the cake but because I used a cream cheese frosting instead of a butter cream frosting I had a hard time getting the roses to stick on the sides so we went with a more ruffled look!

Trying to figure out the fire on her cake.


Her little blowing face haha.

Oh no the fire is gone now!

Enjoying her yummy cake with pa.


Trying to steal all of pa's frosting!

It's present time!

She was so excited about the "tas" (colors).

Reading one of the books she got with pa.
And loving her new slippers!



Gum!

Here is one of her squeal moments!


Just a short video of her opening presents.

So happy with all her new presents!

 Happy birthday my beautiful baby girl!
We had so much fun celebrating you.
We love you sooo much!
