Kendall's 2nd Birthday - Party, Party, Party!

On October 10, 2011, Kendall turned 2! What a wild ride the last couple of years have been, but to see how much our little girl has grown is an absolute joy. From a bouncing baby girl to a big girl who loves to run and climb and sing. She is full of energy.

To celebrate, we actually had 2 parties. Grandma and Grandpa Gorman were out of town for Kendall's  birthday party (and her birthday fell on a Monday), so we celebrated a little early with a dinner, cake, and of course, presents on Sunday.

Kendall's actual birthday fell on Columbus Day, so Nate and I took the day off work, and Kendall got her big present, a new bike! She was in love, but couldn't quite figure out how to peddle.

We even got a video of her first attempt riding that shiny new bike outside. A little long, but enjoy!

To really celebrate the big day, the 3 of us hit Lincoln Park Zoo. There is no better way to celebrate your 2nd birthday than to check out the Lions, Rrwarrr!

To round out the birthday celebration, we had a Very Greaney birthday party for Kendall the next weekend. Kendall's Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, and cousins were all in attendance to help us celebrate.

Overall it was a grand birthday! We'll have to see if we can keep up this party pace next year!
