Kate is TWO!

Kate's birthday was on Saturday... hard to believe she's two already.

[the birthday girl!]

Here are a couple videos of her when we went in her room to get her up.  The first one is not the right way.  I updated on YouTube, but it states it'll take awhile for it to update.  Sorry about that.

What she says in the first video is quiet, so here's what she said.
"I wake up."
"I poopy... butt." : )

Once she got a chance to run through the streamers a few times it was "go-time."  Now it was time to work on her cake and do the other million things it felt I wanted to get done.  I did stay up very late after the Brewer game and managed to get a few hours of sleep.  Pinterest is good, but also not good.  I decided to do a rainbow-themed party for Kate and got too many ideas online.  I even started decorating with balloons on Thursday and still ran out of time.  Of course, the last thing I give attention to is myself.  So, I look like crap, but the birthday girl looked cute... which is all that matters! : )

There were so many pictures taken throughout the day.  I tried to pick out some of my favorites and it still ends up being A LOT.  Going to include all my favorites... even though there are a lot ~ sorry!

[I ordered the skirt off Etsy - it was even cuter than I was expecting!]

[and, the cake is about to be cut...]

[I was thrilled with out it turned out!  I was so nervous about how it'd look when cut and happy it didn't tip over before it was time to cut it!! ; )]

[the kids had fun playing outside... so happy the weather cooperated]
