Sunday was the girls 2nd birthday. They had spent Saturday night with their grandparents, so we didn't get to spend the morning with them. And, unfortunately, their grandparents (who are WONDERFUL) took them to see their mom (we knew they were going to do that) at her house (we didn't know that). Needless to say, it was super confusing for the girls to go to their old house, and they have regressed quite a bit and are really acting up. So, when they came home to us on Sunday afternoon, they were not the most pleasant people to be around. Thankfully, they usually behave better when there are more people around, and, in the evening, we had our families come over for a little birthday party. I put up yellow streamers (because that's the only color they know) and made cupcakes. The girls loved having everyone over and they REALLY loved opening their gifts. At first, they just opened the first gift and then were ready to just play with that, but by the end, Rayley was saying "more, more"! She had gotten the hang of it: open a gift, check it out, open another gift! Carey's grandma got the girls babies, and they are so cute with them.
They also got giant bean bag chairs shaped like a bear and an elephant! Apple was squealing with delight! Rayley was a little unsure at first, but she got comfortable pretty quickly!
After the gifts, we had cupcakes. It took a while before they understood that they could actually eat the cupcake, and that it wasn't just there to hold the frosting!
Overall, I think the girls really enjoyed their birthday!
