2 Years Old!

2 years ago today, I headed to my OB's office for a NST (non-stress test) having no idea I would be induced and give birth to my first daughter at 9:45pm. Such a special and unforgettable experience. Emry was so beautiful and Steve and I felt SOOO blessed she was ours. We cannot believe she is already two. It's been so fun to watch her personality emerge and witness her development and growth. We love her to pieces!

So many people drove from far away to celebrate Emry's special day. Gma Julie & Gpa Ted, Gpa Jeff & Gma Kathy, Gma Linda & Gpa Keith, Erin & Holly, Brian, Marcia, Allison, Anna, and Amber. I was a little lame and saved the "theme" for Emry's playdate next weekend with a few of her closest KC friends. We ate pizza, fruit, cake balls, and a lowfat chocolate bar angel food cake with ice cream. Pizza is one of E's faves (just like her daddy) and she LOVED the cakeballs. She was spoiled with some sweet gifts and had a ball hangin' with her family.

Here is our little message to our precious Emry:
"2 years ago, the angels danced in heaven and our 1st miracle was born! We love you more than you'll ever know. Happy 2nd birthday sweetie!~~ Love: Mommy, Daddy, & Bryn"

This was a Pinterest idea and even though it looks messy, it was actually pretty tastey!

My first time making cakeballs. They are really easy to make and convenient for little fingers. Yum!

Thanks to everyone who made this event special for Emry! She says, "Thank you!"
