Molly's 2nd Birthday

Molly turned 2 on Halloween. She was so excited. We have been talking about it for so long and when she woke up in the morning and we told her that finally it was her birthday she said, Woohoo!!! And we sang to her and she was thrilled. We gave her two presents that morning, a Dora Sticker book and a Rocket from Little Einstein. Big hit. Good job Daddy :).

We had two costume parties with playgroups, one Thursday afternoon and another Friday morning at Chuck E Cheese. She refused to wear her costume and only wanted to wear her Halloween dress.




I didn't want to fight with her about it since wearing the costume for trick or treating was much more important. I was able to convince her that neighbors would be giving her treats and snacks, so there was very little fighting to get the bunny costume on. She had a blast, her and John made it all the way around the block. He had to carry her a little bit. We are definitely looking at getting a wagon for Christmas. With two kids it will definitely be necessary.




Saturday we had her party and she was beyond excited. She only napped for 45 minutes and when she woke up she said, "Party?" No not yet. When all of her favorite people started showing up she was very excited. The next day we asked her if she had fun at her party and she said, "Friends, jumping and running in circles!" Doesn't get much better than that.

So what else? Wow, Amy is 38 weeks. Yay!!! Any day now...and I am 29 weeks. Even more of a wow. I don't know where they went, and I don't know how I only have 11 (or less!) weeks left. So much to do and so little time. Good news is that John is starting to realize how close it really is. Hopefully we have the rooms set up with the big girl bed in Molly's room, crib moved to baby's room, Molly's new dresser purchased. Oh, and I think it looks like we are seriously going to remove the old stove top and put in a new one sooner rather than later. Going to Sears today to pick one out. Yay!!! So excited about having a new stove for Thanksgiving.

That's it from here....Happy November!
