Holland's 2nd Birthday!!!

Holland turned 2 today!!! She slept in, watched Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, and had a birthday party. Kirk and I took her into her new bedroom for the first time. She loved it and even told us she did. She has a full size bed and more room to play. She has been playing in her new bedroom off and on all day today.
We used a "ladybug, ladybug oh so sweet 2nd birthday" theme and it was so cute. We even found her a ladybug dress and Kate got her a ladybug hair clip. Too cute! Her ladybug cake came from Kathy's Bakery and it was beautiful!
After sandwiches, chips, and finger foods, we had cake. Holland knows to stay away from things that are hot, so when we set the cake in front of her with the candles lit, she stayed back and said, "hot." She loved everyone singing "Happy Birthday to you." She ate her cake and enjoyed it. If you notice the clear trash bags over the dining room chair Holland is sitting in, it's because I'm a neat freak and the dining room chairs are suede. I did not want to try to clean up cake off of the suede. :) Holland opened her gifts and got lots of great stuff. She got lots of clothes, a sit 'n spin, tricycle, four-wheeler for little kids, and money. After opening each gift, she would say "thank you" to whoever got her the gift. She was so sweet! :)
After opening gifts, we went outside for Holland to see her new swing set. All the kids really enjoyed it. We also had a pull string pinata. We all had a good laugh when it took an adult to get the trapdoor to open. :)
