I wake up and smile. I kiss Austin and leave him a note telling him where I am going. I change and walk downstairs grabbing my wristlet and keys. I walk outside and lock the door before I head to my car and get in. Starting it up I head to Starbucks to start everything today. I wait in the drive-thru. I get up there and lean out the window some, "I would like a triple chocolate chip frappe please." She tells me the price and I pull forward. I hand the lady a five dollar bill. She closes the window and a few minutes later open it back up and hands me my drink. I take a drink and smile. "thanks." I pull forward and head to the store.
I park the car and grab my drinks and wristlet and head into the store. I grab a cart and start looking around. I grab the balloons and walk up to the guy asking for the banner to match. He told me it would be twenty minutes and I smile and walk back around. I pick out plates and napkins. I walk back to the guy and he hands me the banner. I walk up front and pay. I walk the cart out to my car and put the bags in the trunk. I get in the car and drive to the next place.
Parking the car I get out and head in and get Aubrey a doll and clothes to go with it. I get her a doll with a dress for her too. I get her some books and a cute dress. I walk up front and pay. I again walk the cart out to my car and put the bags in my trunk. I back out once more and head to the last store and pick up the cake. I pay and walk out and put it in the passenger seat. Backing out I head home.
I pull up and Austin comes out and grabs all the bags taking them into the house. I grab the cake and take it inside putting it in the fridge. Aubrey comes in smiling, "Hi Mommy." I smile and pick her up kissing her, "Hi baby." I put her down and watch her go play. Austin comes in and wraps his arms around me, "Everything is up." I smile and kiss him, "Okay."
I walk into the living room and pick up my phone and see confirmations from a few people. I smile and lean back, hoping Aubrey loves what is planned for tomorrow.
Getting up I get in the shower and get dressed in a cute sundress. I walk downstairs leaving my hair curly. I walk into the music room and grab the bags. I wrap the gifts and place them on the table in the living room. I take the plates and stack them on the kitchen table along with the napkins and cups. I get the banner out and hang it up in the hallway. I blow the balloons up and tape some to the wall and tie some to things. I take the two with designs and tie them to Aubrey's chair. I smile and hear Austin getting Aubrey ready.
I hear a knock at the door and open it to see Hanna. I smile and let her in. She walks into the living room and picks up Aiden who is in his chair. I hear another knock and open it to see Trish and Dez. I smile and they rush to get Aiden from Hanna. I laugh at them because sooner or later Trish will win that battle. I hear another knock and see my dad and Austin's parents. They pull me into a hug and kiss my cheeks, "We miss you." I smile, "I miss you guys too." Dad pull me into a hug and kisses my head, "I miss seeing you sweetie. How are you doing?" I smile, "Good." Mimi sees Aiden and rushes off to get him with Austin's dad and my dad heading towards the kitchen. I hear another knock and decide to just stand there. I open the door and see Gavin. "I'm not late am I?" I shake my head and he walks in and starts talking to Trish. I stand at the door and see Aubrey's friend and her mom show up. They smile, "Hope we aren't late." I shake my head smiling, "No she is just getting ready." They smile and walk in. I tell her where everything is. Right behind her a few of Aubrey's other friends and parent come in. The party in all comes to six of Aubrey's friends and their mom's along with Dez, Trish, Mimi, Mike, Hanna, Gavin and Dad. I close the door and hear Austin coming down the steps. I smile and pick Aubrey up as he puts her down. "Hey birthday girl." She smiles, "This many." She holds up two fingers and I smile, "Yes, baby you are that many." I put her down and she runs to her friends smiling. She then sees Trish and runs to her with her arms up. Trish picks her up and kisses her and she hugs Dez while Trish holds her. She moves to Hanna who kisses her head. She then sees her grandparents and screams. She runs to my dad who picks her up smiling wide and kissing her head, she hugs him. Then to Mimi and Mike who kiss her and hug her and she hugs them back. They put her down and I smile, "Let's go outside." I open the door and she smiles before going and playing with the tutus and tiaras and wands I have outside waiting for the girls to put on. She runs around playing with the dolls I have laid out and having a blast.
Austin comes over and wraps his arms around me, "I can't believe she is two." I nod, "I know." He kisses my head, "She is having fun." I nod and he walks away. A few minutes later he comes back and smiles, "Pizza came." I turn to him and wrap my arms around him, "I really can't believe she is two." He nods and kisses me, "Hey we still have Aiden and he isn't even one yet." I laugh and shake my head before leaning it on his chest and watching as Aubrey as fun and Aiden is passed around cooing.
I watch as the parents talk, the ones in college talk and the kids play. It's funny how it all works out. I clap my hands, "Time to eat." Everyone follows me inside and grabs a plate and pizza or chips and snacks. Everyone gets a drink and some go outside to sit and other sit at the table in the kitchen. I watch as everyone seems to enjoy themselves. I get a piece of pizza and eat.
Once everyone is done I look at the time and see we should do cake and presents. "Let's do presents." Aubrey sits down in her chair and one at a time people hand her gifts. Dez got her a new dress for her Cinderella doll. Trish got her new princess movies and a new doll. Her friends got her new dresses for her dolls. Between all six friends she got seven new dresses and two new dolls. My dad got her a Barbie bike. Mimi and Mike got her a princess motorized car. Austin and I got her new movies, dolls, a new bed set, clothes, doll clothes, and a princess tricycle. Gavin got her this princess bed type thing that you put in the floor and she can lay in it but it's not exactly a bed. It's really cute. Hanna got her a new doll that sings to her. She was so happy and hugged everyone saying thank you.
I smile and bring the cake out and everyone sang happy birthday. Austin help Aubrey blow out the candles. I cut the cake and gave the pieces out. I walk into the living room and grab the gift bags I made. They have a little doll. A tutu for the kid plus they get their tutu, wand, and tiara from outside. It also has a princess Cd in it. I go around and hand one to each of the parents telling them thank you for coming.
After a few minutes the guest start to leave. Half an hour later all of Aubrey's friends are gone. My dad comes over and hugs me, "She had fun." I nod and he kisses my head, "I am going to go. I will see you guys soon." I nod and watch him go. Mimi and Mike come over and hug me, "We should get going. It was nice seeing you kids. Please come see us soon." I nod and watch them walk out the door. Gavin comes over and hugs me, "I need to go study for a test. But I had fun. Thanks for inviting me." I nod and watch him walk out the door. Trish comes over with Dez about an hour after everyone else and smiles, "It was so nice seeing her, but I have to go study. I will see you guys in a couple weeks though." I nod and hug her before she leaves. Dez hugs me and smiles, "I will be at dinner next week." I nod and laugh, "I know." He kisses my cheek and leaves the house too.
I walk into the kitchen and see Hanna cleaning. "What are you doing?" She smiles, "Helping." I shake my head, "None of that." She shrugs, "Well, I'm doing it anyway." She sticks her tongue out at me and smiles. I jump in and help and soon the house is clean again and everything is down. Aubrey's toys are in her room and she is asleep in her new princess bed type thing Gavin got her in front of the television with one of her new princess movies on. I laugh and shake my head as I sit down on the couch. Hanna comes over and hugs me, "Thanks for inviting me, I had fun." I smile and hug her back, "Thanks for helping." She smiles and kisses Aubrey's head, "Poor thing partied to hard." I laugh and watch her kiss Aiden. "I'm going to go. I will see you tomorrow." I nod and watch her leave. Austin comes over and sits down. "I'm tired." I laugh and nod, "I know, me too. Who knew a two year olds party would be so tiring." He shrugs and picks up Aubrey as I pick up Aiden. We put them to bed.
I walk downstairs and open the door to make sure I didn't leave anything outside. I see a cute package on the doorstep. I pick it up and take the note off. I unfold it and see a familiar handwriting. I wanted to give her this. I hope she likes it. Please tell her its from me. -Alex. I take the package and open it up. i see a cute princess doll that Aubrey has been wanting but has been sold out everywhere. I smile and walk upstairs and into Aubrey's room. I place it with her new toys and check her before walking to my room and getting into bed with Austin.
Austin pulls me into his side. "I really can't believe how big she is." I nod and kiss him, "I hate how fast she is growing up. Two, she is already two." He smiles, "Oh, baby, we will have a lot of two year olds." I turn to him and he smiles, "You know its true. We are having a bunch of kids." I shake my head and kiss him before rolling over and closing my eyes going to sleep. Today was great and amazing but it was tiring.
