Ava's 2nd Birthday Party

We celebrated Ava's 2nd birthday on Saturday, the day before her actual birthday. 
We did an "under the sea" ice-cream party. 
About 10 of Ava's little friends and their parents came, and each kid made homemade ice cream and then got to add toppings such as "sea pearls" (round sprinkles), "shell cookies" (nilla waffers), "octopus ink" (chocolate syrup) and "sea foam" (whipped cream). 

Here's a very short video of her party. She loved being the center of attention and eating her "cuh-cake." Now, every time she sees a cupcake or any kind of cake, she sings "Happy Birthday to Ava, Happy Birthday to you," pretends to blow out her candles.

This is what Ava woke up to Saturday morning - it looked like Christmas morning! We let her open her family presents as soon as she woke up so she could play with them all day before her party. 

One of Ava's favorite presents was a ballet skirt and a ballerina from Grandma (Amma) and Grandpa Schooff. Ava has been dancing like a "ba-reena" constantly and asks for "ba-reena" skirt all the time haha. She also got a play grocery cart, a Little People doll house, a play vacuum, stroller for her baby doll, a Cabbage Patch doll, some very cute clothes and shoes, books, puzzles, coloring books and stickers, and a few more fun toys. This girl is officially sittin pretty when it comes to toys! We won't need any more toys for a while (at least not until Christmas haha).


Just a little bit of the aftermath - checking out all her presents. Thank you to everyone who made her day very, very special! :)

Happy Birthday Ava! :)
