We had a little party to celebrate Nella's 2nd Birthday. We had some family and friends over to our apartment. I made a banner (Nella 'helped') with some paper that I had on hand. I also decided to set up a 'cupcake bar' with different flavors of cupcakes and icings, and a variety of toppings.
I think everyone enjoyed creating their own cupcake. I did make some 'fancy' brown sugar cupcakes with brown-butter icing (the iced ones on the right). I thought they were so delicious. (The recipe is from Martha Stewart).
Singing Happy Birthday to the Birthday Girl.
Present time!
What could this be?
I see a baby.
She was so excited!
Thanks Papa & Nana!
No birthday party is complete without a meltdown.
Ready for bed.
She got spoiled with lots of lovely gifts. She got to see her grandparents, cousins, aunts, and friends. She was the center of attention. I think she had fun day.

Wow - 2 already. Makes me realize that Owen is getting close also. Ughh. Why is time moving so fast? I remember all our pregnant talks. Miss those days! Your party looked amazing.
Looks you all had a great time! LOVE the birthday banner! I may have to try those Martha Stewart cupcakes. Yum!
