It's Abby's second birthday! Her birthday morning began with our family tradition of opening little gifts in her birthday stocking. She was intrigued and excited to get little books, bubbles, and other fun goodies. And she got plenty of help learning about how to be the birthday girl from her older siblings.
At age 2, Abby is a highly energetic, inquisitive, talkative little girl. She is done being a baby, and strives to everything that her older siblings get to do. She is building a big vocabulary, loves to sing and listen to books, loves shoes, going outside, and pushing her babies in a stroller. She dislikes holding hands in the parking lot, being left out or left behind, or being strapped in!
We had one important person who couldn't be there on Abby's birthday. Daddy was in Colorado, spending a few final precious days with Grandma Boaz. So he watched Abby open her stocking via Skype. And we saved the rest of her celebration until a few weeks later, when we were all home together again. I don't think Abby really minded - to her, it probably seemed like she had at least 3 birthdays this year!
We finished off her birthday with some chocolate sheet cake, and Mommy and each of her siblings had their own quarter of the cake to decorate. Happy 2nd birthday, Abby!
