Two!

IMG_1496-6

I can’t believe my baby is 2! How quickly time seems to pass.

Jenna is strong willed and feisty. It just makes me smile to hear her cute little voice talking so much. When she wakes up in the morning she doesn’t call for mommy or daddy she hollers at the top of her lungs “IE, IE”. Isaac is always up early and it’s become his job to get Jenna out of her crib. She also hollers at Bella all day long. If Jenna needs anything she enlists Bella to get it for her. It’s so adorable to watch her run to the door calling “Daddy, Daddy” when Chuck gets home from work. We do a little cheer after we say our family prayer and Jenna has become our official leader, we laugh every time as we pile our hands on top of each other and Jenna calls out “Ewlette”, she can’t quite say our last name which is what makes it so darn cute. She loves music and will sit on my lap as I play the piano. She’s been trying to phase out her nap the past several months which has really made me sad, she is pretty demanding of all of us and it’s nice to have a little break. But she’s like her sister and just doesn’t need a lot of rest. We all love this baby of ours!

I saw this cute cake idea on pinterest and was so happy that my friend had the Disney cricut cartridge so I could use the cake machine. I used my favorite frosting instead of fondant so it’s not smooth, but it was super yummy. I even made the chocolate and yellow cakes from scratch. I just wish I would have taken a picture of the chocolate cake before I stacked the other cakes on top and frosted it. It totally sunk, which Chuck informed me was because I beat it for too long. Learn something new all the time, but when you have lots of helping hands sometimes it takes a little longer!

It was also so fun to have my brother in town. He’s a professor at the University of Arkansas so we usually only see him once a year, but he had a class in Vegas so he was able to join us for the party. We stayed up late that night laughing as we listened to all his world traveling adventures.

What a fun weekend we all had! I sure do Love my family!
