Our little Sonja turned to two last month.

We started the celebration a few days early with Oma, Opa, Uncle Bill and Aunt Gloria. Uncle Bill made the girls this adorable hutch to match the table and chair set he made them last year. And Aunt Gloria brought little snack pack foods to stock their cupboards.

Sonja loved riding her bike from Oma and Opa.

Sonja's makeshift cake. As the layers were cooling, I pulled out the cake decorating basket to find it, uh, empty. Forgetfullness, you thick friend...I had lent everything to a friend months ago and had quite forgotten, naturally. Another friend had just given me the Hello Cupcake book with instructions for ziploc bag decorating and I found a set of four drippy primary colors in the back of a cabinet:

I felt accomplished until Sonja saw the cake and cried because there were ladybugs on it. (She still is freaked out by bugs...even M&M ones.)
