Kate's 2nd Birthday Party

Kate is quite the fan of Curious George these days.  She loves his books - we have to get at least three every time we go to the library (we're quickly running out of options, but don't tell her!).  On our trip to Orlando a few months ago, she even got to watch an episode or two of the Curious George TV show on the iPad to keep her distracted on the plane.  Anyway, I decided to do a George party for her this year.  I made my own invitations and thank you cards, and got the tableware from Party City.  Kate's favorite part was probably the balloons:)

The day after her birthday, Kate came down with a nasty stomach bug and was sick most of the day.  I've never seen her so tired or confused.  Throwing up was a new phenomenon, and she did not like it (who does?).  There is nothing worse than having a sick kid; I felt awful for her.  And then on Sunday (the day of her party), I came down with the same bug.  Matt took care of Kate all day, and finished all the party prep that I didn't get to on Saturday, and hosted Kate's party.  I pretty much laid in bed all day.    Our immediate families knew their risk, and came anyway.  Kate had so much fun and loved being the center of attention.  A big thank you to our families for loving and celebrating our little girl.  Sorry that half of you got sick after the party:(
