After Christmas was over, I started asking Eleanor what kind of little birthday party she might want to have. She was extremely insistent that she have a "cookie party." So a cookie party was planned. We decided just to invite three or four of her little same-age friends and their families and do lunch and cookies on her birthday. Unfortunately, she ran a fever the night before her birthday and we had to postpone it until later in the week. But that just meant she got to celebrate twice! Once with family and once with friends!
Here are a few pictures of her Cookie Party with all her friends!
Of course, we did a cookie cake!
With cookies on the side. The cut-out ones are all E's and 2's!
Celebrating with sisters and friends!
With all the honored guests being two-year-olds we only planned one activity: a cookie hunt! Basically like an Easter egg hunt, but with our set of 12 wooden cookies from the kitchen set! The little ones had a blast and the big sisters did the hiding!

Eleanor could not have been more pleased with her party - and the copious amounts of cookies she was allowed to consume!
She also got to have a special day at her preschool that week where she wore a special outfit that was Caroline's on her 2nd birthday. I had to get a few pictures that afternoon!
And I just love this one of Eleanor and one of her best little friends at the park!
