Happy Birthday my Big Little Baby February 12, 2009

Tuesday was Fi’s 2nd Birthday – once again something that I just can’t believe.

Sunday we had a nice little party with just the family. We had cake and ice cream and Fiona’s favorite meal, mac-n-cheese for dinner.

For Christmas we were given a cute little “bear” cake pan. There were pictures of different bears you could make ; Santa, princess and soccer bear. I let Fiona choose between the princess bear and the soccer bear (she really wanted Santa bear but i wouldn’t let her =) and she chose soccer bear! I was surprised she chose that, and I checked with her several times, but that was what she wanted:

Fiona seemed thrilled with her cake and stopped by all day to talk to her new friend “teddy bear cake”. What I didn’t predict was the horror and confusion in her face when it was time to cut up and eat her new friend. “Teddy fall down momma!” “Pick teddy up momma!” “nana eat teddy’s tummy momma???!!” oops.

All in all she had a great party and received tons of great gifts :

Princess Party Fion                                     Fiona’s new bike and her Dad covering the specs with her

G-pa Predmore made her her own fly fishing rod with a fly he tied especially for her and even a fish to catch!

Cake and ice cream glaze over                                         Zoe had to get in on it!

On her “real” B-day we took her out to celebrate at her favorite place to eat….Red Robin – where she once again had mac-n-cheese and root bear to wash it all down -

All last week she has been telling me that she is a baby – not a little girl. But the day after her birthday she told me, “nanna little girl today mommy – papa (grandpa) nanna’s baby now”.
