Judah: She's TWO!!!

It has happened. The sweetest girl in the world is TWO! She entered the world tiny and beautiful and is now a bit larger and just as beautiful. We are still in love.

Surprisingly, this week held no tears for Mama. Judah is so happy to be who she is and is so pleased with herself that I simply could not find a sad moment. The purity of her pride is lovely. And, she is right! She is amazing and good. She is a gift to the world.

Now, I give you...... (drum roll!)......the BIRTHDAY GIRL!

Yep, SAME ONE! I love this picture because she looks like she is doing Kung Fu (like her Mama!).

Guess where I found Judah this week...no, not in the refrigerator...

Yep! In our bed where she climbed by herself!
Is she sleeping?!?

"Peek!"

And now for the BIG DAY! (Actually the day after the BIG DAY!)

Judah begged for a "cuppy-cake" as I was making them at her bedtime on her birthday, but Mama held firm...first words the next morning "Mama, Judah need ah cuppy-cake! Pleeese!"

She called the cake "Rain-mow cake!"

Yes, she ate it at 8am. No judgment, please, you would have done the same!

Judah got a super cute dress up set from Aunt Kelsey and Uncle Chan. AAAAHHHH! What a big girl she is!

Now, for the party!

The first time she successfully used a regular cup. It happened all at once and she never spilled a drop on her chin or outfit...except when she held the cup out and shook it like she shakes her sippy cups.

"mmmmmm...pink lem-ade!"

Friend Abby!

"Slide ah Dadney...ready...GO!"

Andrew, Leah and mom Sharon; Rob, Michelle and Abby; Cajah, Logan, Eva and Michael; Cathy, Zia and Arjay; us!

All of Judah's friends came to her party and she spent half the time pointing to everyone and saying their names...keeping tabs on her people, as always.

Cake Time!

Contemplation after the first lick...

Hurry up Mama!

"Gone-Gone!"

First day of life...

first photo shoot...

And now for the videos!

This one is Judah receiving the breakfast cake

This one is of the party...Dadney is in control of the camera and is obviously not looking at the screen to see what he is shooting. He is a good Dadney, even though.

Stay tuned for another year of fun, silliness and stories! Thanks for joining us on the journey!
