Happy #2 Zoe!!




Zoe is 2!! I can't believe my baby is such a big girl! I don't even feel like I can call her the baby anymore. I should start calling her my big girl. We celebrated her Birthday yesterday and it was so much fun! We went to a really great indoor swimming pool at Murray Park. The pool has a pretty big water slide that they let take little kids down with you. She just loved the slide and her expression is the best when you watch her coming to the bottom. So much fun! The pool also has a lazy river and a little kiddie playground that has a slide and lots of water squirting everywhere. It was such a great way to celebrate!

After the pool we came back home for gifts and cake and ice cream. Zoe got some serious loot!! a Buckin' bronco, baby doll, stroller for baby doll, dog in a bag, crochet wiener dog, crochet Lucius look-a-like dog, and much much more!! We are so thankful to have such fun friends and want to thank everyone for coming!

I bought Zoe a book about Birthdays and in the book is a cake with candles on it. So we always pretend to blow out the candles when we get to that page. She loves to do it for pretend..but when I walked towards her with a cupcake with 2 lit candles she was terrified! Pammy and I blew the candles out and Zoe was much happier. She had watched me decorate the cupcakes and the whole time she was saying "Zoe cupcake". So she was pretty thrilled to finally get to eat a cupcake. I made the cupcakes so fun!! They were rainbow and let me just say..they tasted delicious!!

Happy Birthday Zoe!

Ho! Ho! Ho!


After talking about Santa for months Zoe still cried when she sat on his lap.

The mall has a Choo Choo train that goes around the stores and we saw it when while waiting for Santa. We finally found it and turns out it cost $3.00 per person and I only had $2.00 in cash. Well the train guy decided that we could all ride for the $2.00 :)

Cory thinks they wanted the train to look full and fun so they would get more customers. Lucky us!!

Carousel fun..Zoe was on a Reindeer first but decided she wanted to be on the Dragon instead. Who can blame her the Dragon is pretty cool.

Christmas Eve she just opened her Christmas jammies..they have Owls on them.

Christmas morning..just what she wanted..a potty! Trying it out for the first time. I guess we'll have to teach her that the pants come down when using the potty.

Christmas is lots of work! A girl gets tired..time for a rest.

Rest over..back to work opening her Christmas Stocking!

Zoe got a shopping cart with "real" food (aka empty boxes with pictures on them)to put in it. She also got a baby doll that she likes to cart around the house. The Baby doll is by far the favorite present this year.

Zoe lucked out and got one of the most desired gifts this year a Zhu Zhu pet hamsters!! It's really cute and runs around all crazy. I'm sure the dog will eat it within the week.

Zoe finally gave up on opening gifts and decided to play with her baby doll. Daddy was given the task of opening the rest of her gifts. Spoons..just what she needed :)

Family Christmas picture..Cory wasn't feeling so well in this first picture. Don't worry..we have our Christmas cracker hats on so I'm sure he'll be feeling better in no time.

Excellent..Cory is back to being his usual holly jolly self.

Such a fun Christmas!


Sledding the day after Christmas! So much fun :)





Hope you all had a great Christmas and wishing you a supreme New Year!
