My sweet niece Michaela turned two on Saturday, so off we went to her house to celebrate.
Michaela was dressed for the occasion:
The chicest rock star fairy around
It turns out Michaela had received some dress up clothes for her birthday. Annie was intrigued.
Your crazy outfit looks like fun! I want one!
Annie’s first outfit was a princess cheerleader ensemble that is sure to be on the runways next season:
The outfits were perfect for coloring and reading.
Eventually Annie grew tired of her princess cheerleader outfit, and put on a baby fembot slip. Michaela applauded her choice.
Oh Annabel, the feathers on that slip really complement your bone structure.
Things took a turn when they tried to bring inanimate objects to life:
Michaela, I totally saw this on an episode of Abby’s Flying Fairy School! We can make this baby dance!
Luckily cake proved to be a good distraction.
What is going ooooonnnnnnnn?!?!”
I’m supposed to blow this out WITHOUT spitting on it? Ohhhhh Kaaaaaay…
Annie hasn’t stopped talking about her cousin “Mahglagla” since we left. Best buddies!

Those two look so sweet together! What cute photos. I can just see them in a few more years as teenagers, wearing each other’s clothes and “dressing up” for all the high school dances. And they will have these sweet photos to look back on. So special

Jenn says:
So SWEET together! It’s so nice they are growing up so close together!! Soon enough they’ll be asking each other over for slumber parties and movie dates. The fun is JUST beginning!!! ha ha
Audra says:
Annie’s pigtails are adorable! I love that “Where are your princess clothes?” is the preschool equivalent of high school boys asking each other “What kind of car do you drive?”
Lilly says:
I am still best friends with my cousin! We lived five hours away growing up, but our bond was great! It’s so easy to stay in touch these days. I love cousin bonding!
Shan says:
Baby fembot pushed me over the edge. Lol..that was hilarious!
Becca says:
Heather, sometimes Annie looks JUST like you.
Adrianne says:
It’s so awesome that they have each other. They will be the best of friends. I was always jealous of my sister and our cousin who are 12 days apart and were always so close.

love that she’s playing dress-up!! such fun times!!
Jessica says:
So sweet, my daughter is completely into dress up too and has talked her brother into wearing the frilly stuff too. I think her motto is “the gaudier the better.”
Cath @ 7 Million Wonders says:
Aww, I’m so glad they have each other to have fun with! And I kind of want a (much) larger version of that slip Annie’s wearing. VA VA VOOM.
Glenda says:
They both look adorable. So glad that Annie has Michaela and they have so much fun together. They will grow up to be BF.
Rachel says:
They are so so so sweet together. It’s adorable!

Best gifts for girls are beautiful clothes
Cindy says:
Okay, first of all, where did you guys get those little girl outfits? I think my daughter needs to own them for playing dress up!! Also, I’m pretty sure I’m going to dress up like that first picture for my birthday next year. That’s a pretty sweet outfit. So cute!
Tiara says:
Ahh!! I am fighting the girl envy!! I have two boys and the cuteness and pinkness is doing crazy things to my brain. Just so you know, I blame you if this post results in a pregnancy! lol. I am a lawyer, I am sure I could muster up a totally bogus ground to sue! haha.
Kelly says:
Two of the cutest cousins, ever. Dress up is so fun.
Just wait until they start stripping off the real clothes before dressing in the play ones. We usually have to go on a panty hunt.
Robyn says:
The picture with the doll is adorable! I’m sure they will be so happy to have these photos to cherish when they’re older.
You always capture such great moments. You have inspired me to make sure I have my camera with me everyday. thanks for that.
kelley says:
Awww, how sweet! What adorable cousins! My girls still love to dress up like that and they’re 6 & 8 years old. I love those pictures, thanks for sharing.

Rebecca says:
How precious. Love it when kids play dress-up.
Lanie says:
Love the dress up – thank you for sharing.
Meri says:
Little girls in fairy dress-up outfits make my ovaries ache.
Where, oh where is my husband???
Ray says:
Awww, best buddies indeed! Dress up is the best. ^0^ Love that photo of Annie crouched down, pointing the wand on the doll, with Michaela beside her. ;o)
Happy Belated 2nd Birthday, Michaela!
