Cami's 2nd Birthday

What a special day. I am still not sure how our baby is already two! Matt and I spent a lot of time over the last week reminesing about the day we brought this blessing into the word. Time flies when you are having fun!

Well, technically we have been celebrating Cami's birthday for a while now. She was able to open a few presents early....from my Aunt Arlene and Uncle Gordon and from my sister Crista.

The morning of her birthday, both Matt and I went upstairs to her room and sang to her and then we opened some presents before daddy went to work. (we are saving some presents for when Grandma and Papa get here on Monday). The rest is in the pictures. There was one thing that I didn't get very many pictures of, after lunch we went up to daddy's office and had a little celebration up there. Miss Barbara got Cami a cake and some presents. She is such a lucky and loved little girl!

After our cupcake for breakfast, we were able to skype with Nana and Pop and Cami was able to open her presents with them right there on the computer. That was so fun and I know that my parents enjoyed seeing her open the presents.

After our morning festivities we headed over to "the cow place" (chick-fil-a) for her birthday lunch. Cami and I went a little early so she could play in the play area a while before eating. Daddy met us there from work and the Altman girls joined us too! It was a perfect little celebration for our sweet 2 year old!
Cami's very good little friend Olivia and her mommy joined us at chick-fil-a for her birthday lunch. We had a great time.

Kaitlyn and Olivia joined us for lunch. They are keeping track of the cow when he headed over to our table.

After lunch and our interaction with the cow and ice cream, it was photo time. Friend Birthday picture. This was the best picture I could get .
Earlier in the week, I asked Cami what she wanted Mommy to fix for her special birthday dinner. Without a moment hesitation she replied "roni and cheese", so macaroni and cheese it was ...for all three of us. We were all toy story all day, so we each ate off of toy story paper plates!

After dinner, we hurried off to life group. I made cupcakes for Cami to share on her birthday. It worked out perfectly that life group landed on her birthday since we didn't have an official party.

Her very own cupcake. She blew out the candle in own very non-chalant try....hence the surprised look on her daddies face!
Getting ready to blow out the candles for the 3rd time today!

I think Cami had a wonderful day. It was so special for Matt and I too. On days like this it is easy to see all the people that love our sweet family. Thank you all for the sweet calls, texts, and messages on facebook that we got throughout the day. Cami says thanks for all the presents!
