Yesterday, Vanessa had her Winnie the Pooh birthday party! Vanessa was so excited to have her party. She walked around telling everybody that she was having a "Winnie Pooh Party!" It was so cute!
We had a lot of family and friends come to help us celebrate her 2nd birthday! It turned out great and we had so much fun. Vanessa had a lot of fun playing with her aunts and uncle and friends.
At the beginning of the party we had a magic show which was performed by Grandpa Sorensen. That was a huge hit with everybody. I love watching Grandpa do magic. He is very talented. After that, we had a water balloon toss. We all enjoyed that too! The kids were able to have a water fight as well. It was all so much fun.
I made a Winnie the Pooh bean bag toss and Pin the tail on Eeyore for the kids to play with. Vanessa loved throwing the bean bags through Pooh and pinning the tail on Eeyore.
We then had her open presents! She loved opening them and playing with all of her toys. She got some play food, dishes, and an apron for her kitchen, a play CD player that plays music (she absolutely loves it!), a cute red coat, a bumble bee game, Winnie the Pooh towel, a toy bus, Cinderella dress and play make-up, a lunch bag, play horse, Pooh coloring book and water colors, and Baby Signing Time Vol 3 and 4 (she can't stop watching it!).
We had a fun dinner which consisted of hot dogs, pistachio salad, chips, bean dip, and juice. Vanessa didn't make it through dinner without falling asleep. She wasn't able to take her nap because of all the visitors so she crashed at supper time. It was so funny. We tried waking her up so she could blow out her candles on the cake but it was unsuccessful. So we served some ice cream instead.
After everybody left and at 8:00 pm, she woke up and we sang Happy Birthday to her. I was able to make her a cute Pooh cake for her. It turned out so cute! When it came time to blow out the #2 candle she wouldn't blow it out. So finally we tried putting two candles on top of the cake and then she blew it out. I guess she didn't think the #2 candle was not a candle.
All in all it was such a fun day. She is such a sweet and special girl and we love her so much! I can't believe that she will be two tomorrow! She is getting so big and I am amazed at how fast she is growing and how fast time has gone! We love you, Vanessa!
