Happy 2nd Birthday, Brecke!!

The little lady of the house is officially TWO!!!  Wow...where DOES the time go!?

Alex gave her her first present of the day.  He gave her a VeggieTales video!


Today was a fun day!  Daddy took time away from farming and all four of us went to the Children's Museum in Normal for a few hours in the morning!  It was a super fun day and we wore everyone out (boy, did we had a crabby little girl on the way home)!
Crawling through the mirrored tunnel

A little water fun

Big brother posing for a shot with the birthday girl!  She even got her name announced over the loud speaker!!

Paint Room--he was in HEAVEN!!!  He even drew an awesome rainbow!

Funny that their FAVORITE parts were the tractor and the combine!!


Nana came in the afternoon and after naps, and we had some birthday brownies and opened presents.

Checking out the progress on the deck



Brecke got a sandbox (not shown :)), some sand toys, and a talking apple from Mommy and Daddy.

Brother is a good help!



We are looking forward to having some family and a few friends over tomorrow for a party to celebrate!  I am sure it will be a house full of lots of kids having tons of fun and the adults struggling to hear themselves talk! :)
