Rachel's 2nd Birthday Party

We had Rachel's 2nd birthday party on Saturday & what a day it was. The weather couldnt have been better, it was 72 degrees & low humidity. We had about 45 peope in the yard & it really worked out well. This year Rachel understood that the party was for her, she doesnt truly get it, but she got it more than last year. We kept telling her that her party was coming up & thats all she kept saying was birthday cake & baloons. As you may or may not know Rachel's favorite food is cake cake cake... When Sam brought the cake in earlier in the day, she looked at it & said,"cut cake now, eat it". Wait till you see the pics of the cake.. It was amazing.. I cant believe that my baby girl is 2 already. Thank god that I wasnt really hoping for a girly girl, beacuse that Rachel is not. She doesnt mind dresses & like her pocketbooks but thats it. She has no use for dolls what so ever, she pushes them away, its really funny to watch. Case in point, she was behind the shed with my friends daughter playing, so I peeked in on them & I said Rach, what are you doing, her answer of course, "I digging dirt", then she looked up at me covered in dirt & said " I eatin dirt mommy". I just laughed, what a mess she was, really gross LOL... It doesnt really matter though, she had fun at her party & thats all I cared about.. Enjoy the pics
