she's two.

A few weeks ago, we threw a little birthday party for Naomi's second birthday. She loves elmo (or "eh-mo" as she calls him), so I decided that would be the perfect theme. We went all out last year for her first birthday so I wanted to keep it small and low key this year, especially since 

we just had Gresham! 

These elmo cupcakes were pretty easy to make. I just used a gluten-free cake mix, made some cream cheese frosting, and then cut out the big orange noses from fondant. The eyes were store bought. 

My friend, Sarah, made these incredible cake pops. The goldfish crackers in the goldfish bowl were supposed to be like Dorothy the fish in "Elmo's World."

We had a coloring station and an elmo book station

Wonderful friends and family

I loved watching the kids all try to pin the nose on elmo.

She was very intrigued by the candles

She devoured it (actually mostly just the icing)

Gresham survived his first birthday party and handled all the craziness quite well.

Happy Birthday little Nomes! We love you so much and you have brought more joy into our lives than we ever thought possible.
