Happy Birthday Annalise!

Today, our feisty little princess turned 2 years old.  We had a family party this evening to celebrate.

This was taken last Sunday and is one of the few times that she actually looked at the camera and smiled.  I love this picture of her.

Daddy bought this little tiara for her.

As you can see, she likes doing things her own way.

The tiara actually didn't stay on for long.

Just checking out the frosting.

She wasn't so sure of the candles...

but as soon as we started to sing Happy Birthday, everything was great.

Stuffing in the cake.

Annalise ripped this little hole in the paper and looked in.  She  could tell it was a doll.  Instead of opening it any further, she just kept looking through the little hole and saying, "doll" until her brothers helped her get the doll out.

She is such a girl!  She loves her purses, her pretties (hair bows) and babies.

She also loves her new Talking Dora backpack.

You can tell that Bryce really enjoyed hearing the backpack sing the song as well.

It is hard to believe that my baby is already two. She is just so fun and really adds to our family.  We love you, Annalise!
