Claire Turns Two

Here are the pictures from the morning of Claire's big 2nd Birthday!
Soozie tries out the Minnie Mouse ears. (Claire wanted Mickey ears for her birthday and I could only find Minnie ears. She quickly remedied my mistake by coming straight to me and saying, "Bow Off! Bow Off!") 
 Mickey Balloon! (It is still afloat in the playroom two weeks later).
 An interesting take on a "hoppy ball," this is a "hoppy hotdog." She is still too small to really get on it, even after Geoff has let out a good deal of the air. So I guess we're still in the market for one geared more towards toddlers...
 Evelynn's gift to Claire? This was the first morning she decided she could really crawl in earnest, on all fours, covering lots of ground in short time.
 Floor puzzle with sounds - Mommy quickly realized that all of the "eyeballs" from the animals had to be removed so Evie Jane wouldn't swallow them...
 Evelynn gets in on the action
 Evie samples Claire's matching puzzle cards
 The birthday girl
 Singing cards continue to be a big favorite of Claire's - to give as well as to receive
 Trying out fingerpaint with NiNi
 With her singamajigs from Mr. Mike, she named them "Singing Gini (purple one), and Two (red one)"
Ready for my party now...
