Aunt Nene started the morning off right with doughnuts for the birthday girl and we ended it with a cookie cake! In between we had lots of play time with Everett, Norah, Merritt and Emma overall it was a pretty spectacular way to spend a 2nd birthday for our happy girl!
For Haven's birthday party I wanted something she would recognize and love and settled on one of her favorite foods, Strawberries! The ironic thing is that about the week before her strawberry party she decided she didn't like them anymore!
I decorated with a Strawberry Birthday Banner, lots of red white pink and green pinwheels and some other coordinating fun decor. My favorite thing about her party though was the food. I did white chocolate covered strawberries, thumbprint cookies, and the most delicious strawberry scones that I found a recipe for on Pinterest! Mini made Haven’s personal sized strawberry cake and mini cupcakes because nothing can compare to Mimi’s homemade strawberry cake!
I came across the most adorable smocked Strawberry Gingham dress that I knew Haven would look ridiculously adorable in for her party and had to order for her to wear!
We celebrated Sissy’s second party surrounded by some of our most favorite people! Everett took over as party etiquette leader telling Haven when to open her next present and who she needed to thank and hug when she opened one. It was such a special day celebrating our precious girl who I still can not believe Is already 2!
Haven you are such a sweet girl and never stop going for long! You absolutely adore your brother asking every morning when I come into your room where Bubba is? You have recently gotten back into wanting to be rocked and held by me at bedtime and I love it! You are a huge fan of your blanket, your babies and your Bobbie’s! We often find you walking around the house with your little arms piled high full of those favorite things of yours! You love to wear hats and your rain boots and would every single day if I let you! Haven you are already fiercely independent, you want to do everything yourself and insist on picking out the clothes you wear each day and pajamas you put on each night! Thankfully you continue to be our good eater and love to try everything! Most nights after eating your dinner you come and eat off Mom and Dad’s plates.
Haven you are so excited about being a big sister and have taken to calling your baby “Rory” just like Mom’s baby! You love to come talk to your sister through my stomach and give her sugars. You are well practiced in singing Rock a Bye Baby to the bed Rory will sleep in and I know you will want to spend every moment with your new baby sister! Haven you are such a dream come true to your Dad and I and we absolutely adore you! You are such a bright light in our days and keep us on our toes always! Happy Birthday my beautiful daughter! I am so proud and grateful for you every single day!
