Fancy Nancy

Zoe love, love, loves Fancy Nancy. She loves to read the books and I think Frenchy is her favorite since she looks for him throughout the book. So she had a Fancy Nancy party and I had got her a Fancy Nancy outfit but she wasn't having it that night. So the next morning she got dressed and wanted to wear it. She was really loving getting her picture taken ... she kept posing and then running over to look at it in my camera. What a silly girl.

Zoe Turns 2

First of all I cannot even believe my baby is so big now! She has definitely taught us that girls are just different than boys ... just becuase that is how its supposed to be. Our little Zoe can be so sweet and cuddly and also the completely opposite ... she'll have the boys in tears because what she wants she is determined to get!

Zoe just learned how to say her name and it is now her favorite word. She says it before nearly everything ... Zoe's turn, Zoe's blankie, Zoe's drink, etc. She has started talking more lately but still doesn't say as much as I remember the boys saying at her age ... guess she doesn't have to since her brothers are always helping her out. She does love to read though ... she picks out a book, climbs in her rocking chair and jabbers away.
What a girly girl she is. She loves clothes, shoes, hair bows, babies, etc. She also loves to ride bikes, jump on the tramp and play cars with the boys. She was delighted to open up her new outfit first thing in the morning.
Zoe spent most of her birthday right by my side or in my arms since I had just got back from being gone at Girls Camp the week before. So she helped me and the boys get everything ready for her Fancy Nancy Party.
What is a Castillon party without a pinata! Zoe had so much fun putting the candy in and even more fun hitting the pinata to get it out.
Zoe was very overwhelmed with all the attention and pretty much wanted nothing to do with the present opening. Its always hard to keep their attention but she was getting mad because she just wanted to play with the presents and not see what was in the next present. So we recruited some cousins to help us speed things along.
Zoe got a pink kitchen for her birthday and has been in love ever since. Once she saw the kitchen I finally got to put her down for the day. She was ... and still is ... in heaven. (notice the full house we have! Thank you everyone for coming to share Zoe's special day with her ... we have a lot of family here and it is wonderful!)
