Happy Birthday to our TWO YEAR OLD Bean!

Well, it's official. As of 7:01pm today, our Syl is a two-year old. No sign yet of the "terrible twos" (did I just jinx us by typing that?).




Sylvie's Mom made some cute little Elmo cookies for Sylvie's school birthday celebration - we're told they went over VERY well. No surprise there.  As you can see, Melissa is honing her skills with the frosting tubes!

We are celebrating at home tomorrow.  Sylvie's friends Jake, Madeline, Avery, Zach, Angela, Josie, Sophia and Lily, and her favorite cousin Aya are all coming over for pizza and cake, along with Aunt Mary.  She'll open the huge pile of presents that have arrived in the mail over the past couple of weeks then.  For today, Dad spent a good two hours putting together Sylvie's "big" present from Mom and Dad - a doll house.



Sylvie got right into a full-fledged game of house, sitting the little family together on the couch, putting the baby in the bathtub, having the daddy wash his hands at the sink - it was quite a show.


Of course, she got a little frustrated that the third floor is a little tough for her to reach just yet.  But she'll get there!

I'll take lots of photos tomorrow, and probably some video too.  Thanks to everyone who called to say happy birthday to Syl.  She appreciated it!  She got a real kick out of all the telephone serenades!
