Two is Not So Terrible!

Macy turned 2 last week and we had plenty of festivities to celebrate.  Here are some pictures from the fun we had!

 
Birthday Party morning...ready to rock!
 
Cupcake Tower

 Macy's favorite thing is the "Stars and Moon" so that was the party theme!
 

Hanging with Grandma

Opening Presents

Macy was a little under the weather and whiney---until this gift came out!  This girl loves to jump!

She actually blew out her candle all by herself!

Another favorite-Cupcakes!

Family Shot

Loving that trampoline!

Grandma & Grandpa Polega with their Granddaughters
 
Cut to Macy's actual birthday---I took the day off of work and we spent the whole day doing Macy's favorite things..first up, painting!

Next- "snuggling" on the couch and watching her favorite movie about Jingle the Husky Pup

Macy loved swimming so much in FL I took her to the Econo Lodge in Bad Axe for a swim in the pool!

This looks fun!

Next up- a run in the jogging stroller with a pit stop at the park for her all-time favorite swings!
 
Next we were off to Boppy & Dzia Dzia's for dinner.  MORE presents from Uncle Mikey!

Boppy made Macy this beautiful mirror for her bedroom-she likes checking herself out in it!

Blowing out candles part 2

We had enough cupcakes left over from the party for more on her actual birthday!

Finally- back home for gifts from Mumma and Daddy

A potty that she is obsessed with and loves to sit on...next up, toilet training!

Macy's very own golf clubs...she's pretty good!
Happy Birthday to Me!

Happy Birthday, Macy!

Two years ago today our world was flipped upside down and our lives haven't been the same since!  Macy, you bring so much joy to Mumma and Daddy every day, and we are so proud to be your parents!  We love you!

Spring Break 2013!

We headed down to Florida for my Spring Break again this year.  My dad previously promised his condo in Cocoa Beach to a family friend for the week so we decided to head somewhere new- the Florida Keys this year!  Macy had her first plane trip (we flew into Miami then drove down to the Keys).  She was so well-behaved on the plane.  We had a wonderful vacation and had perfect weather.  It was sure nice to get out of cold Michigan for the week! 

Here are some of my favorite pictures from the trip.

At the Butterfly Conservatory in Key West

Macy LOVED the butterflies!

Taking some time to stop and smell the flowers

Catch them!

Macy LOVED "having fun in the wa-wa all day long!"

Scoping sea life with Daddy

We painted Macy's toes for the first time for our trip...they match Mumma's!

We were in Florida for Easter...showing off her Easter dress!

The only family shot we got...I set the automatic timer!  On our way to church Easter morning!
 
We are back in Michigan now and gearing up for the home stretch of the school year!  We are ready for some more Florida-like weather too...it's been a cold spring!  Macy Doodle also has a BIG day coming up.....she'll be two on the 17th!  More pictures to come from birthday festivities!
