Birthday And Potty Parties


Little Miss Shelby Marie turned 2 on July 22nd, the day was celebrated with family, gifts, laughter and a Dora cake.


 Ready to blow out the candles.


 Some of the group.  Great Grandma Loi and Aunt Kelly seem to make it to every celebration which is wonderful.  Rachel and Dezbah were in town and came as well.


 And  there was Grandma Alisa


 Not sure who was more excited about this gift (talking Abby from Grandma Bobbi) Shelby or Julia.

 I so love those dimples-the princess of the day.



 Aunt Kelly's gifts always rock.  For someone who has no children she seems to find the most fun things for the kids.  The bubbles were the toy of the day.  This one was for Julia, the non birthday gal.


 I love bubbles and Dezbah must as well


 Ohhhhh, she can hardly believe all of those bubbles, and they are so big!


Two weeks later Shelby decides she wants to wear underpants and is now pretty much potty trained.  Had to have the celebratory potty party with an ice cream cake...yum.


 Shelby, like her Grandma, likes the chocolate in the cake the best.  And, again like her grandma, she doesn't leave any on the plate and figured this blue frosting was worth eating as well.
 This has always been one of Julia's favorite grandpa things.  The pink blanket is the saddle and gramps is the horse.  Once they get to the couch the ole horse bucks the girls right off.

 It was a gorgeous day 

 With just the right amount of wind

 To fly a kite. 
 I love watching Lenny play with his girls.
 And oh yes

 Julia was able

 To fly the kite

 All on her own

 While grandpa played with Shelby who soon lost interest in kite flying

 Yep, it was a wonderful day
