Baby's Birthday

Baby is 2. I was very much looking forward to coming home tonight so I could join the family in celebration. Claire understood more of the meaning of this birthday this year than she did last year. She kept saying "birthday" and gestured to her princess cake on the countertop. "Pretty" she'd whisper as she pointed.

The princess theme was everywhere. In addition to the cake, we had princess tablecloth, plates, cups, and balloons. Claire sat at the head of the table and soaked it all up. Later with the presents she got a dress up princess dress which she prompty put on and then drifted through the house.

Claire is a girly girl. More so than Em was. And she loved all the extra attention today. It was great to celebrate her being a part of our family.
