TWO!!!

just another day of dress-up with mommy's purses



Hmm, what should I do next?

wrestling with the birthday balloons from Daddy


birthday cupcakes


a little help from Daddy


a little help from Mommy


Cupcakes are for finger painting, not eating!


We told Gi that she could eat her cupcake anyway she wanted. She dove in with both hands and squished away. She hardly ate any of it.


Today, my munch turned two. Wow, where does the time go??? The three Ds celebrated with a quiet dinner and some birthday cupcakes. Big hugs and kisses for Po Po and Gon Gon who made a contribution to Gi's college fund. Thank you to the vovos for their long distance call to wish Gi a happy birthday. Gi also heard from her Auntie Sara and our good friends, Monica and Marcello. We can't wait to continue the celebration with our friends and family next week at the Schoolhouse Museum. Hubs and I are so grateful to be able to celebrate each and every one of Gi's milestones. It seems like just yesterday that the three of us were in China stumbling our way into becoming a family. Now our munch runs circles around us. She is an active, stubborn toddler who asserts her independence and yet craves the safety net of her parents. Munch is talking more and more. Her latest word of choice is "funny." When she doesn't want my company she will loudly say "bye bye mommy." Imagine that! Welcome to two, my love. May every birthday find you a happy, independent and compassionate child.
