Good Times

Me: Why in the world did Ivy put her cereal bar back in the cupboard half gone?

Robbie: What? (Goes over to the cupboard to look) Well, at least you didn't think it was me.

**Long awkward silence**

Me: Was it you that put it back in the cupboard?

Robbie: Yes. I wasn't thinking!

Me: (laughing) I totally have to take a picture of this!

Robbie: Please don't!

Me: Why not?

Robbie: Cause I don't want to be THAT guy!

Good Times.

Ivy is 2!!! (and 3 months cause I am behind on blogging)

We had a very low key birthday party for Ivy back in May. (And that's not cause we celebrated it early, but because I am late to blog this. She turned 2 May 18th) It was great. We went to Settlers Park and just played, opened presents, playes some more, grabbed a cookie, and played a little bit more. For Ivy - it was perfect. All she ever wanted and more.

See, look a how much she's having. :) She got a LOT of Elmo for her birthday. Elmo is her best friend, I'm pretty sure. She is only allowed to watch an hour of TV a day, and it usually ends up being Sesame Street. Although - Abuelita has introduced her to Dora, so we'll see how long that lasts. :) Mom and Dad got her a new trike. We just thought it was the coolest until we realized she can't even reach the petals. Awesome. This next picture pretty much sums it up. Playing was her favorite. Then the cookies. Then the presents. :) No - we didn't have a cake. And yes - I realize Ivy will probably look back and get all offended that I didn't make her a cake on her birthday. Well, Ivy, let me just say in advance, "Look at how content you are with your cookie!" Mom and Dad also gave her this play house. I was working on it forever and got it done just in time! She loves it! And so does Addie. Which is a bonus. :) Happy Birthday baby girl! We love you! You are growing up too fast. Stop it - or I might have to put you in the freezer! XOXOXO
