Yes, dearest reader(s), my little snuggle nugget has turned 2 years old. 24 months of OG being awesome at life. 730 days (give or take - she did sleep A LOT at first) of learning, laughing, smiling and adorable clothes!
Oh, and memories and junk. Those too.
wink!
The Moms (you know, all of them) through history, say "take it all in - it goes fast" which is 100% true. However, thinking back to life pre-nugget seems like a lifetime ago. You might as well refer to it as 2014PN vs 2014AN (after-nugget). It seems like yesterday she was just a baby, but also like she's been around as long as the Earth itself. It's weird. Being a mom is weird. Amazingly weird.
Anyhow, before I enter some philosophical plane of consciousness regarding parenthood, please join me in celebrating the amazing birthday of my sweet sugarbiscuit!
On OG's
actual birthday, Dada and I took off work to have a family day and let OG do some rad birthday-y things. She decided to wear a very
low-key:
-Birthday Girl Shirt with 3-D Cupcake applique
-Colorful Heart Pants
 |
| Birthday breakfast at OG's favorite place |
 |
| Mimi crashed breakfast and surprised OG with a bunch of little character balloons |
 |
| OG then stabbed Mimi in the head with the balloons when Mimi was trying to get kisses - hehe |
 |
| SO MANY FRIENDS! So little space... |
 |
| We then took OG to the Aquarium for the first time! |
 |
| Mickey balloon came with us, of course |
 |
| Neon fishies |
After all the excitement of the morning/afternoon, OG took a long napnap. Once she woke up, there was a wardrobe change before going to dinner at our favoirte local joint. OG wore:
-Rainbow Print T-Shirt
-Jeggins
 |
| OG making her own pizza (with a little help from Momma & Dada) |
 |
| This is what really happened. |
 |
| Finally getting the cheese ON the pizza |
Planned for the Saturday after OG's birthday was the big party with friends and family. For this event, OG picked out an outfit at Target (of course) a month or so in advance. It's a very big deal, after all. :)
OG partied in:
-Minnie Mouse "Pretty Awesome" T-Shirt (Target)
-Purple GLITTER PANTS! (Target)
-Silver Sequined Headband (Hobby Lobby)
-Black & Teal Nike kicks (Once Upon a Child)

Side-note: Headband is off AND Declan is about to barf all over his momma at this point.
Both signs of a good party, right?!
