Frida is 2!!

 As I've been updating the blog the last hour or so, Frida has been chatting away in her bed. The last half hour mostly consisted of the "Happy Birthday" song. She can also sing most of "Jesus Loves Me" and does quite well in carrying the tune. 

We really like her, and as Auntie Kari mentioned in a text on her birthday, we can't even remember life without Frida! She makes us laugh, a lot. One of my current favorites goes something like this: 
Me: "Frida, it's time to (do something you don't want to)"

Frida: "No!!!!!"

Me: "I love you, it's time to obey."

Frida: (with a cheeky smile) "okay! I obey" (giggle)

Of course I know it won't always be that simple, but I'm sure enjoying it while it is!! We love you Frida. Even if you're a big girl reading this on a bad day. We're so thankful God gave you to our family!!!

Best friends dressing up for their sister's big day:

Frida slept in on her birthday, and the boys nearly went crazy waiting to celebrate her. Here Lukas is miserably waiting outside her door:

But she did wake up, and there was much doting on her:

We decorated and put on our party hats:

And fika finally came. Ice cream with Frida's favorite things as toppings: chocolate chips, strawberries and marshmallows. 

And of course presents and cards.
