Furniture Stores

Much to Greta's disappointment, our shopping at furniture stores is now over (at least for awhile), as we finally purchased a sectional for the basement.

As you can see, she was really starting to make herself at home.

Turtle Fest Parade

Last week Greta saw her first Turtle Fest parade, and it did not disappoint.

Waiting for the parade to start.

Candy!

Pretty Pink Puppy Party

Thanks to Tante with all of her help with the planning, decorating, and cake making, P to the 4th turned out to be quite the "paw"ty!

Ready for a quick dip in the pool the morning of the party.

Up from her nap and waiting for her guests to arrive.

Take one of the pink cotton candy.  Good work, Daddy!

What a beautiful table!

An hour later....who knew you couldn't let cotton candy sit out?!?!

A kiss to the birthday girl from the birthday boy.

The good stuff.

Greta's meal consisted of pineapple, cookie salad, and fruit dip eaten with her spoon :)

Tante made Greta her own special puppy cake.

Greta after too much sugar and too much fun.  Thanks everybody for coming to the Pretty Pink Puppy Party.  It wouldn't have been nearly as much fun without all of you :)

Soon to be Two!

Once again I can hardly believe another year has flown by.  Tomorrow my baby girl turns two years old!  These are a few of the things I'd like to remember Greta doing before she was two years old...

1.  Counts to ten.

2.  Has gone pee-pee and poopy in the potty, and even recognized and asked to go poopy.

3.  Knows most of her colors.

4.  Loves to sing songs and dance.  Her favorite songs to sing are Baa Baa Black Sheep, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, and Wheels on the Bus.  We often wake up to sweet singing on the monitor.

5.  Is very in-tuned to feelings.  Recognizes when people/characters are happy or sad.

We're having Greta's Pretty Pink Puppy Party in a few days with our families, but Greta wanted to bring some treats to her daycare friends as well.

The cake for daycare.
