Annie's Cookie Monster 2nd Birthday Party was a huge success. She had so much fun eating hot dogs, watermelon, and her cookie cake.
Playing outside in the dark was so much fun too. The 60 degree weather made it seem more like a summer birthday party, than a party on Dec. 1st.
Annie enjoyed opening her presents too, but didn't understand why she had to keep opening them. Her first gift was books and all she wanted was for someone to read them to her.
Each year on Thanksgiving we attempt to take a family photo for our Christmas card. Even though this photo didn't make the cut, it does a great job of showcasing the girls' personalities. Lauren - calm and patient, Annie - doesn't hesitate to let us know how she feels, Caroline - so happy and loves her hands. I guess Annie had had enough by the time Aunt Stephie took this photo.
