2 Years Old

Bridget turned 2 yesterday, and it was a fun day. David's Mom came down for the day, and we had fun...even Bridget, although I don't think she really understood what was going on. Jacob was a lot more excited than she was. He came into our room first thing and excitedly told us that it was Bridget's birthday.
Bridget was terrified of the candles and buried her face in my leg. She wouldn't even look at them until they were safely blown out. She is afraid of all new things.

Jacob kept insisting that Bridget wanted a butterfly cake for her birthday, and so that's what she thought she needed. My birthday cake skills are seriously lacking, so I decided to make cheesecake cookie cups with butterflies make out of candies and cookies instead. It was easier.

Playing with the puzzle Aunt Molly gave her.

She got necklaces and a tutu from both Grandma and Grandpa Strong, and Grandma White. She is so ecstatic about having some girly things finally, she has taken to wearing everything at once. It was a good day in her little life.
