Two

Well, it's official now, my baby girl is two.... TWO! It doesn't feel like two years already! Every moment I have with her is such a blessing. Unfortunately Manuel had to work, but my mom and I took Aubree to Disneyland :) We got there just after they opened and left after lunch (when the rain started). Aubree was able to get on the rides she cared about the most though- the carousel and dumbo... She saw Mickey and Minnie, and of course we had to make a stop at Pixie Hollow to see Tinkerbell and her friends. Aubree also suckered her Grammie into buying her a Tinkerbell doll lol Then we were suprised by my mom... She made us reservations to eat lunch at Ariel's Grotto.

We were kind of afraid that Aubree would be afraid of the princesses, but it ended up amazing! She loved every moment. They brought out a 3 tiered appetizer tray that had jello w/sliced strawberries inside, cheese, mixed veggies, salami slices, and salad. Shortly afte receiving the appetizer tray, they brought out a basket of fresh bread with three different types of dipping sauce. You had your choice of main courses, but my mom and I both opted for the Tri-Tip w/potatoes and veggies & Aubree had glazed chicken on sugar-crusted skewers with rice and fruit. And for dessert.... mmmm dessert... They brought out a tray that had chocolate brownies, cookies, chocolate cake with a fudge center and a white chocolate ariel figurine, mini cheesecakes and a white chocolate sea shell... My mouth is still watering over the dessert. Of course we had to get Aubree a birthday cake. They brought out a hot pink treasure chest that that had a cake in it decorated with candy mickey heads.

Throughout the meal, we had a meet and greet with the princesses. They each came to our table and visited with Aubree and took pictures. Her absolute favorite was Snow White. She kept asking the other princesses where Snow White went. lol

Half way through lunch the rain started so we left immediately after, but we had a perfect time! Thanks again Mom!

That night we had some of Manuel's family over for dinner, cake, icecream and presents :)

I would say that Aubree had a great second birthday.... :)

Thank you to everyone for you help and birthday wishes!

Goodbye 2009

I can't believe that 2009 is already over. I know that I went through the motions but wow, was I really even there?

My baby girl is going to be two.... TWO! I am still in shock! I tried to enjoy every part of this year as best as I could. 2009 had it's ups and downs and I'm hoping that 2010 is better! :) We already have so many things to look forward to this year, like birthdays, baby showers & weddings.... & I can't wait!

Here are some of my favorite pics of 2009:
