Celebrating Amelia's Birthday!

Amelia was able to celebrate her 2 year birthday twice this year!  The first celebration was in the Dells!
 Her birthday was an Elmo theme and she was thrilled!
 She even got to wear an Elmo birthday ribbon!
 I don't think she quite got it at first, but she sure liked the Elmo wrapping paper
 Her cake and presents
 Lots of curiosity
 Amelia got help opening gifts from Emma and Noah
 Everyone had fun with that!
 Towards the end she started picking up on the unwrapping thing
 Amelia snuck a dip of frosting prior to opening gifts which made her pretty excited to eat her cake!

Amelia's second celebration was at home on her actual birthday!
 Mommy made strawberry cupcakes!
 Amelia was very excited about all those cupcakes and the decorations at the top of the curtain.  She noticed them right away - what an observant girl!
 Amelia and her cakes!
 We explained that she had to blow out her candle, to which there was very hard concentration....
 and then there was success!
 Amelia went for the frosting!  I think the verdict is that she likes chocolate cake best!
 Later in the afternoon we went to the zoo
 The mommy and baby monkey......"Don't leave mommy!"

 It was really hot that day, so we decided to go to the conservatory for a little bit.
 They have a kids room and Amelia loved the water.

Happy Birthday Amelia!
