Julia's 2nd birthday at Granny and Grandpa's

The girl's favorite activity at Granny & Grandpa's, spinning in the gold chairs! Julia is game for whatever Ashleigh would have her do...she definitely enjoyed the ride.

Happy Birthday Julia Belle!

Ashleigh was so excited about Julia's birthday party, much more so than Julia. She's ready for the cake.

There's the birthday girl, just loving all of the excitement.

There's our little professor taking it all in.

Granny & Grandpa helped blow out her candle. I just love this picture :)!

Julia didn't eat much of her cake. She said,
"icecream?" And at Granny's when the grandkids say icecream, they get icecream. All we heard was, "mmm mmm mmm". All was well in her world.

"Whatcha' doin'? I'm trying to eat icecream."

She did like the icing & Stewart & myself tryed to stop her from having a finger lickin' good time. But Granny & Grandpa quickly reminded us it was her cake & whatever she wanted to do with it was fine. She just got a little bit with that left index finger...she's my little lefty.

She gently & slowly opened her gift. We ultimately helped her, otherwise I think it would have taken a couple of hours. The girls are so different. Ashleigh would have ripped it off in about 2 seconds!

It's Gecko, the webkin! She loved it, but Grandpa thought it was hilariously ugly. After Granny purchased it & showed it to Grandpa he just laughed & laughed at its ugliness. It was funny to hear them tell the story.

Julia loved snuggling with Grandpa.

I found MY old BARBIES! Ashleigh just loved them, their clothes, everything. I think she was amazed Barbies had been around for SO LONG. She had a great time playing with them. Needless to say they now live with her Barbies at our house. And she wouldn't have it any other way. "Mama may I please take them home. Yay!"

I think this was the highlight of the party for Stewart (other than the food, of course). Granny & Stewart played Wii bowling. I think they both had a good time.

"Come on Grandpa, start the train please."

"The Chair" in action.

Julia received her gecko & says, "cool". Julia came away with more presents, but this is the only one on film.

Of course, Ashleigh gets presents too...check it out.
