Look who is TWO!!!!!

It is so crazy how fast two years goes! My sweet Sadie Grace is now an official two year old. She is so fun and smart! She loves taking care of her "bebes" and the whole "m-mouse" clubhouse. She knows all of her letters and numbers up to 10. she can spell her name and she loves to read to her dolls. She sleeps with all the animals piled in the bed with her! Her vocabulary is just exploding lately and she loves to sing.


So for her 2nd birthday we decided to take her to her favorite place Gymboree. She also loves "mimi" mouse so we combined the two. Amy and I had so much fun planning and crafting in the weeks leading up to the big day.

Here is the room, you can see the syrofoam Mini heads I made on the table and on the cake topper.

This was her banner and minnie mouse decor that you cannot see very well.

The pary favor boxes and minimouse headbands for the kids. I love etsy!

These cupcakes were finished with fondant bows and chocolate oreos for ears

Amy used to work in a bakery and loves making cakes and sweet treats!

All of the guests. Sadie had 4 friends from her pre-school and my mom's group, twins Alex & CC, Maya Jo, Liam, Wawa (Walker), Rita & Matthew, Finn & Grey Sears, My friend Jane's kiddos, Viv and Eva, Heidi's kiddo, Zoie and miss Nora. All the kids had so much fun playing!

Loving the cake, she cried when I took it away

For some reason, she just puts her foot on the table now. Bad habit that needs to be broken!



After the party the family went to Grimaldies (where Sadie had her first bday)

Sadie trying to Jump



Sadie has been trying to learn to jump. She is a cautious child and at gymboree will want to hold your hand to help her jump down. In the video above you can see her talking to her feet and telling them to jump! She has the motion down but hasn't quite put it together!
