2 weeks until my little girl is two!

Haha yep, our lounge room has been taken over by toys so it’s time to get stuck into it and clean out some of the toys!

How exciting, Happy Birthday Lily, my baby is 16, and it only feels like yesterday she was born. Time does fly, make the most of these exciting times, memories are a thing to treasure….####Sandra

Aww a happy birthday for her next month. My daughter just turned 4 on the 7th October and my little man turns 2 on Feb 22nd next year.. The time just flies, but each year we have more and more kiddies at the parties as my sister’s have kids and so do our friends. Good luck with the party and hope she gets spoilt rotten.. I know mine did and my house can seriously rival the toy department at big w LOL 🙂

My son will be 2 in jan. Only recently he has started interacting with other kids so I am tempted to do something for his bday as he will actually get something out of it. I didnt really do much for his 1st bday – had some of his mothersgroup playmates over on the actual day then a few weeks later had all of the fam over.

We are probably going to go a bit stingy present wise on Christmas/bday as it is most likely the last year we can get away with doing so!! He has no interest in presents…though does like toys so we will prob give him one toy and santa will give him one toy…but then I’m sure the family will go crazy! Depending on what he receives we may get some more for his bday. Last year i was sneaky and wrapped up his pressies for xmas, left him one toy to play with then rewrapped them all for his bday!! I think I ended up putting most of them away in the cupboard anyway and waited until he was seeming bored before getting them out.

I’m finding it hard to know what to get him. All he is interested in is balls. My folks have gotten him a t-ball set. I saw this cool martian play centre thing that i liked but i can just see him playing with it for two minutes before losing interest

Maybe get him a ball pit? We got Lily a giant swimming pool last year and 500 or 600 ball pit balls (didn’t look like that much at all!) and she loved it – it’s now packed up because we just don’t have the room for it anymore since a friend moved in with is.

This year I have sternly said NO TOYS because everyone went nuts last year and now we have to go through and sort out with ones to keep and give away. I know people will still buy her toys though.

We got her a swingset, Hello Kitty plush and some shoes with cupcakes on me for her birthday. Christmas we are giving her a bed, so excited to see her in a big girl bed, yet again realising she is growing way too fast haha.

Thanks everyone for the birthday wishes. Her Daddy and I decided we want a patio out the back and he is out there every chance he gets, cleaning up the yard, laying new turf and now he’s getting onto the patio so at least the flooring will be down before her party <3

Happy birthday Lily!!
kids just keep growing up every day and soon she will be a mother too.
how amazing!

i am 38 and the youngest of 3 and mum still says i cannot believe you are 38 with a baby of your own – all the things she used to nag about and i rolled my eyes are now things i am dealing with now i understand what she was tring to say – my little girl is 2 and a half in 2 weeks and i cry when i look at her mega baby photos – time just flies so i just try to enjoy every moment with her ….

I wish your beautiful girl all the best for her birthday and may she be the happiest little girl forever – congrats and have a ball …all the best

Ahhh on hubbies iPad I meant to say happy birthday to ur daughter and it auto corrects….hope she has a great day, I find it harder to go back and correct on this …. So annoying not a fan love our laptops… But hop on this time to time.

I don’t have family here and I moved here April this year so we will have a quiet one and Charlotte will have her good friend around and we have new play equip going up and a cupboard full of presents already and she still has heaps more coming!! I’m sure she will have fun, last yr she had a party when we were in Perth but different this yr!! Hopefully she has a great day

Hope ur daughters g’day is good too 🙂 … On that subject of please and thank you Charlotte has been using them for awhile and I have the biggest smile whenever she asks for things politely ….so proud 🙂

How many other Mummas never really get over the fact their babies are growing up? I swear I look at my little girl Lily every day and think ‘Oh my god, she’s so big! Where did the time go?’

So her birthday is on the 16th of November, with her party being the 13th, I am so excited, this year she will be able to understand what’s going on a bit better and we have a lot more kids coming this year. Did you find the first year was mainly family members at the party? That’s what it was like for us haha.

My girl is 2 on the 31st oct….HALLOWEEN!!! Im proud of her and I have enjoyed the time… these days i dont think so much where did the time go
I just embrace the time and watch her with amazement she impresses me everyday and she has such great knowledge and manners already :D. Im sure time will fly when new bubz is born due date march 5th, 2012.

Haha my partner’s birthday is the 31st also! We were hoping Lily was going to be born on the 13th because it would’ve been Friday the 13th hehe.

What are you doing for her birthday? It does make you so proud seeing the little people they are becoming, like today, Lily said yes please and thank you to everything I asked and gave to her! I am so proud of her.
