Lilly's 2nd Birthday Party

Tommy and I hosted about 50 people (give or take) on  Saturday, March 23rd-2 days before Lilly officially turned 2.  I don't recall large parties being this hard but being pregnant and trying to play hostess was stressful!!  I had to take a time out at one point just to tell myself to STOP and relax and try not to keep everything so perfect.  After I just didn't care anymore (or tried to forget that I did) things were fine.  My main concern was I just wanted to enjoy Lilly having fun!  I think she was a little overstimulated at first but she soon became a party animal!  I will do a separate post on the party details later but for now I wanted to share some of my favorite pictures of her party!

Trying to get a shot of the birthday girl in her outfit!

Eating her dinner!
Celebrating with Grammy!

Opening her gifts!

Excited for her "lottery" tickets from GG-I hope she wins!
Happy Birthday to you!!!
Diving into that cupcake!
What a great day spent with family and friends!  Tommy and I were both exhausted but Lilly had a blast.  We are so fortunate to have such wonderful people in our lives and in Lilly's lives to share these special moments with.  Now-next year we may change things up a little since we will have two little ones and a FIRST birthday to plan...so maybe a more intimate party will be in the works...but we shall see-after all I am THAT crazy.
