What a fun (and exhausting!) birthday weekend we had! My mom came into town on Thursday and Bonnie was instantly a Grandma's girl. She didn't want anyone to help her except Grandma. Grandma even got a refresher course in potty training a toddler! Mostly Grandma and Bonnie read a lot of books.
Bonnie's newest favorite animal is an orangutan. I showed her a video of baby orangutan on YouTube and that was it. Surprisingly there aren't a whole lot of orangutan podcasts or shows. I did find a Go Diego Go! episode that has baby orangutans in it and of course it's a big hit! Because of Bonnie's new found love of orangutans we took her to the zoo on Saturday. It was a gorgeous day and she had a blast. We didn't know it but there was a baby orangutan at the zoo which was a great surprise!
Sunday was the big birthday party at The Little Gym. I spent most of the evening on Saturday and all morning on Sunday making cupcakes for her party. We ended up having 11 kids at the party and they all had a great time.
After all the excitement from her party we decided to take it easy on Monday, her actual birthday. Her big gift from us was a kitchen. She was so excited to play with her kitchen.
Matt was determined to make a fancy cake for Bonnie's birthday this year and I would say he definitely succeeded!
Bonnie loved her monkey cake and wasn't sure if she should pet it, hug it or smash it so she did all three!
But the following video pretty much sums up our sweet little girl on her special day.
