Olivia's 2nd Birthday Party

Grandma went all out and planned Olivia's birthday party since I am out of pocket. We just had a small little party with family and a couple of Olivia's friends, Evan and Shalimar. Olivia had a Halloween birthday party where the kids dressed in costume and Grandma decorated the haunted garage.


Grandma made these lollipop decorations/giveaways.


Olivia dressed up as Snow White. Super duper cute and she even had on her "Spahkle" shoes.


This is Evan, her best buddy from school. Olivia was so excited to see him; she was jumping up and down and squealing and so proud to show him the Witch that grandma and grandpa have by the front door. She has a love/hate relationship with that witch!


Here they are playing with sidewalk chalk.


The birthday girl looking adorable.


Here she is with her cousin Phoenix.


Phoenix is such a good baby, but Olivia isn't really interested in him just yet. She's more intrigued by his mom Chrissy whom she calls "Issy." She asks about Issy all the time and she knows when I put on clothes that Chrissy gave her, she'll tell me "Issy, Issy." Watch out Chris - I think you may have a stalker.


Lunch! Grandma even set up the fog machine for a more spooky effect. Unfortunately, Shalimar wasn't very excited about the ghosts and goblins that inhabited the garage so she isn't in any of the pictures.




After lunch, the kids played pop the bubbles!




Here's a picture of Olivia's birthday cupcake. We sang to her and she didn't know what to do, so Evan helped her out and blew out the candles!


Grandma re-lit so that Olivia could have a go.


Phoenix got dressed up as a bat.


Olivia enjoying her Doritos.




Time to open presents! Here she is reading a birthday card - doesn't she look like she knows what she's doing?


Evan is supervising.


Strollers and baby dolls were the big hit this year. All her baby dolls are named Amy.




She loves her Mr. Potato Head.


Here I am stuck in my chair! When Olivia sees the wheelchair in the house she points to it and says "Mommy sit."

Phoenix and his Poppa Bob.


Olivia thanking Grandma for her super duper birthday party!


Family stayed all day and here's Olivia's "take two" of her birthday cheesecake! She's looking very excited.




This time she knew what to do!
