Had a fun day yesterday for their 2nd bday party. We got a "jumpy" for the kids to go crazy in - "Blues Clues" theme so Avery loved it! It got here before the party started, so C&A had their own private jump party for a while. Connor does pretty good jumping, actually gets a little air, while Avery is pretty much ground-bound just works to stand and keep her balance while others are jumping near her.
Mostly neighbors and family came: Mom and Dad, Cheri's family, Erin, Jolie/Carly, Matthew/Sofia, Jenna/Zachary, Makoa, Julie, Julia/Kevin...
Avery got scared when we did the cake - she and Connor were sharing a chair at the table, and everyone huddled around and sang. It was too overwhelming for AP, she started to cry a little and reached for daddy. We kept her there to blow out the candles and she recovered. Avery didn't eat any cake. Connor meticulously used a spoon to gouge out the middle layer of icing from between the layers of chocolate cake.
They got clothes (Tommy Hilfiger (sp?) from Huy!!), dresses for Avery, some puzzles, an animal barn, a playhouse with people, Avery got a baby with a binky! We haven't opened the life size blow-up car thingy that they can apparently both sit in...
