Family party

Last Sunday, Patrick & I went to pick out Mallory's birthday present.  We decided on a Dora tricycle for her 2nd birthday present.  Maybe not the best choice...she doesn't seem to care for it and shows no interest in trying to ride it.  We hope it grows on her!

I also had ordered her a few Melissa & Doug toys when I caught them on sale a few months ago.  She really liked all of them, thank goodness!

Wednesday night, my mother-in-law cooked dinner for us, Patrick's grandma, and my parents, brothers & grandparents to celebrate Mallory & Patrick's birthdays.  It was nice that we all got together & I had no stress...all I had to do was show up!  She took care of everything & the meal & cake was so good!

Grandaddy Oneal & Grandma Deborah got Mallory a rocking horse.  She likes this horse much better than the real ones!  By the way, all week she has been saying 'horse too big!'  Guess that is why she didn't want to ride one.

Opening presents!

It was a great day for a 2nd birthday!!
