Our sweet little Charlie is TWO!
Charlie's birthday was quiet, but eventful. I had been feeling sick all day so I put Iva and Charlie down for a nap and went to take one myself. (Shawn was home studying and entertained Henry for me.) When I woke up, we decorated and got the party set up. Charlie and Iva were still sleeping. (They rarely nap so this should have been our first sign). We waited awhile and then woke them up and had a fun little party.
Both of them were pretty mellow, but Iva was super mellow and didn't hardly move at all. We opened presents and gave them their cake. Charlie ate three pieces and Iva didn't touch hers. I turned around to get Charlie a napkin and turned back to Iva puking everywhere. Poor little thing.
So Charlie's party was short lived and the rest of our evening consisted of Iva puking again and taking multiple baths because she said that was the only thing that made her feel better. Charlie didn't seem to mind and just kept eating cake. Luckily, he never got sick because I really wasn't looking forward to cleaning up blue cake.

| Poor thing... we laughed at this picture (before we knew she was sick). |
