She had a fabulous second birthday.
Simple, sweet, EARLY, homemade breakfast in a decorated kitchen.
A birthday shirt, singing and candles.
We went swimming and the senior swimming class in other pool all sang " Happy Birthday " to her.
We watched a movie with Shirley Temple, while baking cake and baked beans.
She wore a handmade (by oma) dress with matching dresses for her babies. (Gorgeous, will have to make some more photos soon!)
Then we also had some friends over and painted faces, ran around, played, ate and sang!
At night she wanted to wear her birthday pyama's again as if she was thinking
"let's do this all again tomorrow."
She is a real party queen, this big girl.
oh my goodness...so, so sweet! love that the senior's sang to her ;) what a special day it must have been!

such lovely photos and what a great blog, thanks for stopping by and sharing this with me. Yes, living abroad here in Sydney. Never easy to be away from friends and family but what a wonderful adventure living in a new place! x

I like your new header.
It's all about making memories and your daughter will have wonderful ones. She does look like a little shirley temple. I love her curly hair. I love the decorations. Where did you find the t-shirt with number 2? and that cake, do you made it? great way to incorporate fruits.
Wishing your daughter a happy birthday and many more sweet memories.
don't rush with the email. I understand about the nesting. so there will be plenty of time.
Ps. cute dress too. can you tell I adore every single photo?
