Maggie's Second Birthday!

Maggie's second birthday party was a big event for our family. All of the aunts and uncles, grandmas and grandpas (and three great-grandmas) were in attendance as well as Maggie's cousins Grace and Kate who were very helpful when it came to opening presents.

I think one of Maggie's favorite presents were her balloons from "Aunt Debah" (who would have much rather her played with the giant stuffed horse she bought her). Maggie ran around all day giving people balloons and strategically planning out which color to give each person.

Maggie loves her new Elmo umbrella from Aunt Carla, Uncle Jon, Cousin Grace and Cousin Kate. She looks just like Scarlett O'Hara - except Scarlett kept her shirt on more often than Maggie.

Another one of Maggie's favorite presents was her new bright red Ford Mustang convertible from Grandma and Grandpa (mainly Grandpa) Baker. After a little bit of training from Cousin Grace, Maggie now drives her car up and down the street - under careful supervision of course! We didn't make it downstairs with the camera when Maggie found her gifts from Grandma and Grandpa Alexander...a new kitchen set complete with stainless steel appliances (better than her mommy has!), crisp white cabinets and a phone built into the "wall". She is becoming quite the little chef and loves to make fruit salad and cookies for her mommy and daddy.

As is typical with most of the presents Deborah gives Maggie - this one took some warming up to as well. By the end of the day she was kissing the horse and had named him - what else - Woody. Now there are two Woody's in the house!

Maggie loves to lick the icing off of her cupcakes! Once she licks the icing off she wants another cupcake and isn't interested in eating the cake part!

After all of the festivities Maggie played a little bit of Peek-A-Boo with Aunt Deborah.
