Melody's 2nd Birthday (Part 2)

For your birthday party we decided to go low key and just invite family and neighbors.  It was fun!  You and Lilly were having the best time playing with eachother. 
This was the picnic we had from your actual birthday.  Y'all were so good and had the best time outside.  It was such a treat for y'all to eat outside! 

Your party was flower themed.  I wasn't sure what direction to go with it this year and I will usually choose something y'all are into or something that describes you.  At this time you really weren't voicing your opinion on characters that you love.  Sooo, after thinking about it we decided that you kinda remind us of a flower.  You really do:)  It sums you up perfectly and the cake turned out awesome!  Mrs. Whittenburg did an amazing job as usual. 
Chillin' with Nona. 

Present time! 

This was our big crowd!  It was so relaxed...just like we like it.  Matt and I will do this for as long as y'all let us.  I just love home birthdays.  It is a lot of work but totally worth it. 
Bill and Charlotte are just like family to us.

Checking out your candles.  By this point you had already blown out lots of candles from your actual birthday.  You were a pro!  Check out that concentration.


You finally are starting to get use to Clay.  We think it's his beard that really freaks you out.  Who knows though?  You get really bad stranger anxiety towards men.  Actually, you just have bad stranger anxiety period.  It's just a little worse towards men. 
It was a fun day!  Can't believe my baby turned 2.  As I always tell Addison, "Don't grow up too fast"!  She thinks it's hilarious and insists she will:(  I'm constantly trying to remind myself to enjoy the moments and that the laundry and chores can wait.  Mom guilt is a very real thing!
