Two

Last night, we picked the date, time and place for Lucy's 2nd birthday party.
I cannot believe she is turning two, any more than I can't believe Jackson turns six months next month, let alone that I have TWO kids now.  Two.  Damn.
We will not be doing the crazy big blowout we did for her birthday last  year.  This year we're keeping it simple with immediate family and close friends at a local park.
Since she's crazy about Sesame Street (mostly Elmo), I'm going to be making an Elmo cake and some sort of Sesame Street themed cupcakes.
We're also going to have a pinata for the older kids who will be going, but Andy brought up a good point, we should get one that is not in the shape of an animal or person, so we don't freak Lucy out.  
I'm pretty sure she would lose her shit if she saw her cousins and friends going after an Elmo pinata.  No good.
Excuse me while I go cry in a corner about the fact that in a few short weeks I'm going to have a two year old.  It seems like yesterday we were driving to the hospital for my c-section, and now she's doing this:




































And this:














Here's my sweet girl right after she was born:

















And at her one-year check-up:
Time flies fast, kids.  Hug your babies, because one day they'll be independent and (sometimes) stinky toddlers.
