Maddie’s Elmo Birthday Party

Maddie had a wonderful 2nd birthday party. We had a bunch of friends and family come celebrate with her. Chuck’s mom made Maddie a dress with Elmo on it. She even made Elmo’s face!

Here are some pictures of everyone mingling and eating. The kids loved playing with the balloons we blew up. I even drew Elmo faces on them!

Here’s a picture of me stuffing my face with pizza!

Maddie loved the noise makers.

She even blew out the candles all by herself!

And ate some cake. Well, she mostly just ate the frosting!

We opened a few presents before she went down for her nap. The ones from her grandparents and aunt and uncle.

Along with a bunch of other cute things, my mom gave her a music box that I think was mine.

Uncle Adam and Aunt Katie have her a LeapFrog My Own Leaptop. She loves that toy! And I do, too. Now she doesn’t want my iPad as much because she has her own. And you can program it with her name and emails from specific people. It’s really cute! And she loves to bring it in the car with her. It sings the ABCs and Maddie just can’t get enough of that song!

Another one of her favorite presents was a Melissa & Doug Slice and Bake Cookie Set. We didn’t take it out of its packaging before her nap, but she wanted to play with it as soon as she got up and it is definitely one of her favorite toys right now.

We opened a bunch of other presents. Some from us, and the rest from her party.

Here’s the present aftermath!

Dannie slept right through present opening!

Maddie had a great day and we were so happy so many people were able to come celebrate with us! Thanks for making our little girl’s big day so fun!
