Rahn Family Updates: Punzel Party, Part 2

All of our lovely friends and families showed up to help Punkie Poo celebrate. Of course both sets of grandparents were there, as well as Great-Grandpa Olson and Great-Grandpa and Grandma Rahn. All the aunts, uncles, and cousins were in attendance (except for the Larsons and Jared because of illness--darn February!), and it just wouldn't be a party without the Abbotts and Uncle Dan. Isabel loved opening her presents--everything from bath crayons and pajamas, to dump trucks and princess castles. She was spoiled! And nothing is better than running around with all the kids afterwards--you need some way to burn off the sugar from that cake!

Later Grammy told me a story from when Izzie was eating her cake. She made Grammy laugh by leaning over to her and whispering, "Hey, Grammy. Stupid." Mom tried not to giggle and asked if she was supposed to say that word. Izzie smiled and said no, then took a bite of her cake. Grammy thought it was hilarious. Mommy thought it was a good thing she didn't hear that...

Regardless of some typical, two-year old hiccups, she was an absolutely gracious party hostess. We had practiced and talked about how to be polite and open presents, and she very sweetly looked at every person after opening their present and said, "Dank yew for my present." So hey, we're getting some thing right, okay? Even if stupid and poop are still awesome words to use... Sigh...
