LuLu Turns 2

Well, the baby hasn't come and here it is LuLu's birthday.  I thought for sure I'd be in the hospital for this special day but as it turns out, I'm home to celebrate this very Elmo-rific day with my little girl who is about to become a big sister...so weird to think about!  She can't quite get her bunny ears fingers up so we've taught her to hold up her two pointer fingers to show us how old she is.  She loved all the attention on her birthday!  She would say, "LuLu happy?" (Is it my birthday?).  And then she'd start singing the Happy Birthday song to herself.  She also kept talking about a hat whenever we'd mention her birthday.  So Grandma went to the store and got some Elmo/Sesame Street party hats to add to our other decorations.  She loved having birthday hats!  We got her favorite thing to eat, "fench fies" for dinner and her favorite treat, "shock" cup cakes.  She's crazy about Elmo right now so we tried to make it a special Elmo day for her.  She got to watch a couple of Elmo movies including the Happy Birthday episode.  I think she had a really fun birthday and in the end I was so glad (even though I was mad at first) that I was there to celebrate with her.
