More Birthday Pictures

A few months ago Erin went to a birthday party at Chuck E Cheese and loved it, so we decided to take her there again for her birthday. Once again, it was a hit. We all enjoyed it....only one of us came home with a small headache!

Here are a few pictures, capturing the fun...













soooo much fun :)



Seamus is clamoring to get out of his sound-proof box here...

I didn't get any pictures of Erin climbing through the tunnels, but that was probably her favoite part of the night.  It was certainly mine.  She is still so tiny. She is only in the 10th percentile on the Down syndrome growth chart, which doesn't even put her on the typical kid growth chart. I really questioned whether or not she'd be able to manage the tunnels, let alone the giant steps and slides. Well, as Erin showed us, when there's a will there's a way!  She quickly managed the tunnels, steps and slides, without hesitation.  And then she turned around and climbed back up the slide.  Yes, she showed us.....once again. And she was having so much fun!   

We finsihed off the night with presents and cake. 



  Last year when Erin turned two, she wouldn't even touch her cake, let along take a bite.  She is not a sweet tooth and never has been.  But this year she gave it a try...

And loved it...

As we were getting ready for bed, she took one last look at her new fridge phonics toy. 



Oh yes, and since Erin refused to wear her Irish princess crown, we had to try it on someone....
