Well it's official, our little girl is 2. And because we have another baby on the way we've been really talking up the whole "you're a big girl" thing in hopes that Claire will take pride in helping us out with the baby. Honestly, it just breaks my heart calling her a big girl and not a baby anymore. I now understand all the parents that I know who still call their 20-something year-olds "babies".
Claire was the youngest of everybody at her birthday party. She loves hanging out with big kids, and I like it too because she seems to know NOT to hit/slap them when they show interest in her toys. With younger kids she doesn't hesitate to threaten them with a raised hand, and then I'm on referee duty for the whole play date. I tell myself it's just a phase...it will pass too.
You can tell from the photos that Claire had fun and that she fully understands what cake is now.
Happy birthday to Claire!
