Happy, happy birthday, Macy dear!

Today we have had some fun celebrating Miss Macy's 2nd Birthday! We had a pretty casual morning, we went to Macdonald Island and played around their playground. Macy got her wrist brand which she now insists on getting, even when she doesn't need it. Chris was able to come home for lunch and presents. 

Macy opened lots of gifts from Grandma and Grandpa Cutts, and probably her favorite was the hand-me-down purse that Grandma gave her. She remembered it right away and was talking about Grandma and Grandpa non-stop. Especially when she saw it was filled with Grandma treats like fruit snacks and apple sauce. She has one more gift left to open from Uncle James and Aunt Jamie and us (mostly from James, its a belated gift from her birth). Since she doesn't read yet, I'll tell you what it is, a RadioFlyer Trike, the kind where the parent can push and steer until the kid is old enough to ride on their own. I'm very excited for it. I think Macy will love it.
After gifts was lunch, cheese quesidillas (Macy's favorite) and fruit salad. We sang to her and had some cake and then Chris had to go back to work.
 
We have so many birthday around the same time that we opted for just one cupcake and then a fancy piece of cake for us all to share. Macy loved her cupcake, especially the icing. But who could blame her, it is the best part!
After nap we are heading over to a friends for the afternoon and then will have a relaxing evening at home with Dad. Happy Birthday Macy! We love you and are excited for a new year full of adventure and fun!

I'm so sorry we didn't call! Tom remembered tonight that we forgot Macy's birthday. We closed on our house Monday and it is total chaos here...since we closed late I've been cleaning (so so much) and packing at the same time. I'm losing my mind.

Happy, happy Birthday, Macy! It looks like it was a wonderful day.
