Mikaela is two! What a day of fun with the family. We opened presents and just kind of played the whole day. Tobias took the day off of work and we enjoyed opening presents and using them throughout the day. Most of her friends are not around right now (just moved and vacation) so Madison was very distraught that we didn't have a big party for her. Madi needed them (and boy have we had them!) but we almost had to force her to open her presents. Finally we just let Madi do it for her (that is what Madison really wanted anyway!) I learned that home made cake is always better--period. We wish family and friends could have been closer, but it was a good day and we sure love our little family. The biggest event of the day was that we got rid of her binki!!!! We are still working on potty training... if she is naked, she will go in the potty, if not forget it! Oh well, we rushed the first one and are still paying for it. I am just not stressed about this one. Parenting is definately NOT about knowing all the answers!
