What a Week!

I turned 2 on April 6th and the celebration went on for a week! It all started with a party at my house...........
Here I am noticing my balloons for the first time!


Happy to be 2!
Yummy cupcakes! (At least that's what Mom says. I wouldn't try mine because those candles freaked me out! I waved at them and said "Bye!")
I had a ton of gifts to open! Everyone was too generous!
Playing at my new sand table!
The attention was taken off of me for a day to celebrate Easter!
Then we went to Grand Forks where Uncles Mark and Pat got me T-Ball! They tried to give me lessons in the living room, but I wanted to do it MY way with just one hand on the bat!
Ellis had his own way of playing too!
Papa brought me to Cabela's to see the fish and animals.
I went swimming with Ellis and my friends Lily and Gia. The girls were much more daring than Ellis and me! I was really slow to warm up to the chaos at the water park and the water was a little cold for Ellis, but we had a good time!
Then the girls came to Papa and Gaga's house. I played with Lily and Ellis played with Gia.
My other Papa came to take me to the circus! I found out I have a fear of clowns (just like Daddy)!
Papa spoiled me with pop and gave me my own bag of chips!
Papa got a huge new truck that I got to check out. These are the only pants I wear with elastic on the bottom and I think it's so cool that I can push them up, and they stay!


He even let me drive! Mommy says not to worry..... it wasn't even turned on, but I don't know any different!

There were a few other things that happened during my birthday week that mom didn't get pictures of.
*I got a birthday crown at school. The kids and moms sang to me and I gave monkey stickers to all my friends.
*Mandi brought me an awesome bowling set. We played in the kitchen at Papa and Gaga's house.
*I spent a day in Fargo with Papa, Auntie Annie, Uncle Brett, the Graalums, Anika and Jacob. We played outside all day!

This week was so much fun! I can't wait for my birthday week next year! Mommy says this is an example of why our site is called Martin CHAOS!

Mr. Kaden is such a character! I LOVE it! I love the look on his face when Lily is clapping-wondering what is this girl doing at my table! It was so good to see you all too. Can't wait for our summer get together!
