Last week I had my 2nd Birthday. I had a party at school with all of the kids in my class and my teacher Tracy. It was my last day in that class. Now that I’m a big girl I go to a new room with big kids like me. At my party at school Mommy brought in little cupcakes for us to eat. They were really yummy. When we got home from school Grandma and Grandpa came to my house to see me. They brought me some blocks with letter and numbers on them that go in a wagon. They also gave me a bear that sings to me and a doll for the bathtub. We met Daddy for dinner, where I got to use new placemats that I can color on. I love to color. The next day was my party! Grammy, Grampy, Aunt Lisa, Uncle Nick, Uncle Brian and Cousin Alex all came to our house. Miss Susie, Mr. Phil, Natalie and Julia came over for my party too! It was an Abby theme. There were Abby plates, steamers, a balloon, and noisemakers. My cupcakes were even the same color as Abby. Mine had a candle on it! I got a lot of fun stuff for my birthday. I got puzzles, books, clothes, stuff for my doll, a doll and dog that have clothes that snap on. I got a horsey thing that I bounce on and a roller coaster car and track that I ride on. I had a really great birthday. I wish I could have them more often.

So after Gammy and Granpy left I went back to school for a few days. Then my Grandma and Grandpa and Uncle Brian came to see us for Christmas. They showed up and we tried to go to a place called church. There were very few seats when we got there and I didn’t like sitting on Mommy’s lap, so Daddy had to take me home. We had a big dinner when everyone got home. Soon after that I went to bed. When I got up the next morning Santa had come. (Good thing he came while I was sleeping, he is kinda scary.) He left me a whole bunch more toys! I got an Abby doll, that I sleep with every night, clothes, a blanket, a sit-n-spin, a shopping cart, shoes, an Elmo restaurant, puzzles, and a new kind of cup that has a straw. It was a whole lot of stuff and I had to take a break in the middle. I had a lot of fun playing restaurant with my Uncle Brian. My Aunt Patty even called from Europe, wherever that is.I could get use to this whole Christmas thing.

Well my Grammy and Grampy from Myrtle Beach came to see me a few weeks ago. We were having what Mommy said was an early Christmas. He day that they came there was a lot of snow. Mommy came to get me early from school. I was suppose to have a party, but everyone went home early so we didn’t have our party. We got up early on Saturday to have breakfast and open presents. I wasn’t really sure about what I was suppose to do, but I got the hang of it really quickly. I did a really good job opening gifts. I even helped other people open their gifts too. I got a baby doll that cries and laughs, a set of books, an Abby costume, and a desk to color at and some other stuff too. I really like my desk! I color at it just about everyday. I even get other people to color with me too. My desk came with new crayons and paper and other supplies. I really like this Christmas thing. Mommy and Daddy said that there will be more stuff later when Mommy’s family comes! I can’t wait to see what else I get.
