OUR BABY TURNS TWO!
Today is Stefanie's second birthday, and it also happens to be Easter Sunday, so we started the day very early this morning. Jon and I took Stefanie to have "Breakfast with the Bunny", at the Hoogle Zoo. During breakfast we had the opportunity to see several small animals up close, while the Easter Bunny walked around greeting everyone, then we moved onto crafts. Last we took our photos with the Easter Bunny. Once again by the time we took photos Stefanie was the only one with the Bunny. She was very spoiled with the Bunny this year.
After breakfast, we walked around the zoo. Unfortunately, the weather was not quite what we had expected as it had just rained, was windy and a bit cold. Everything turned out perfect as most of the animals were out and very active. We returned home, and Stefanie opened her birthday gifts, and Easter basket. We put Stefanie down for a short nap, and then went out for a nice dinner at Flemings Steakhouse. After dinner, we went home to have birthday cake. We all had a very special day. Happy Second Birthday baby love!

Not the most attractive cake, but
Stefanie choose it. Elmo is one of her
favorite characters.
"Your going to wear a birthday hat".
"What the princess wants, she gets".
"Caught again with a hat".

THE NIGHT BEFORE STEFIE'S 2ND BIRTHDAY
The night before Stefanie's 2nd birthday, we placed 50 balloons in Stefanie's bedroom. I should say, I had the idea, but Jon did the work. While Jon was busy using the hellium tank, I made Stefanie a birthday card using her favorite characters, and wrapped all of her gifts.
I had the idea of placing all these balloons in Stefanie's room from a long time ago. One year for Valentine's Day, Jon surprised me by sneaking in our bedroom while I was asleep and filling the room with balloons. What an amazing surprise I had. Stefanie loves balloons, so we wanted to do something special for her.

Did I mention it is extremely late at night, or should
I say very early morning.
