2 Year Old Snow White Toddler Photos

Disney’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs  is a fun movie for her, the Dwarfs are her favorite. Who’s the fairest of them all?

Snow White is trusting of everyone and can see the good in anyone. She moves into the cottage believing that whoever lives in the house will let her live with them. She also trusts that the old witch is a kind old lady too, and kindly helps her.

Storm is also very friendly and trusting of everyone. She will wave at everyone while we are out and about. And she willing goes to family members that she barely knows when we are at family functions.

We took these picture in our back yard again this year. She wore a Snow White dress that a friend had given to her. Her shoes are the red sparkle flats and her red earrings are from a multi color pack. The red bow in her hair came from a colorful pack of bow that I had bought when she was a baby as well. This oval gold mirror I also found at a resale store several years ago.

24 Month Old Sleeping Beauty Toddler Photos

Disney’s Sleeping Beauty is fun because of the 3 good fairies. They make the movie fun, and Storm likes to rewatch their songs.

Princess Aurora is full of the grace and beauty that the fairies blessed her with. She also loves her aunts and desires to have a romantic love as well. She unknowingly meets the prince and falls in love with him. In the end it is his kiss that breaks the spell of her deep sleep.

Storm doesn’t red, let alone sleep. She is awake for hours in the middle of each night, and can go go go all day long. She is definitely learning what love is and tries to give us toddler kisses often.

We went to our local Rose Garden to take her pictures again this year. She wanted to touch all of the roses, but we were at a public rose garden so I tried to keep her from grabbing them. One of the gardeners cut a rose just for her to match her dress and brought it over to give to her.

We bought her this new Sleeping Beauty dress on Amazon, and we love it. It came with a crown and necklace too.  I curled her hair before we left the house, and it was gorgeous. Lastly we put in the gold and pink earrings that I had bought a few years ago for these photoshoots. Then she just held the single red rose too.

Storm (X-Men) Party -2

Storm (X-Men) party this year. With rainbows, lightning bolts, and tornados added!

Storm Dress

They all wore their “Storm X-Men” Shirts.

Birthday Girl’s shirt says “TWO NADO”, and mine says “STORM CHASER”.

I tried my very best to give her a zigzag lightning bolt part in her pigtails! She is also wearing her lightning bolt earrings that we got for our X-Men Family Halloween Dress up.

Storm Decorations

I used pool noodles to make a rainbow. White pom-poms for the clouds, then I cut out lightning bolts for the clouds. A cloud table cloth for the background. Then I used a black umbrella with paper rain drops hung with fishing wire.

I used the “Xavier’s School” that I made for our X-men Family dress up last Halloween. Then I printed out X-Men Storm posters and made some “X” symbols with paper.

Crepe paper rainbow with white pom pom clouds. I put in the extra lightning bolts and rain drops that I had.

Cloud and lightning bold balloons.

TWO nado… I hung gray crepe paper from the ceiling fan and then turned it on medium.

Storm Food

We had lots of Storm themed foods!

We had “Rain Water”, “Mini Marshmallow Hailstones”, “Nacho Bugle Tornados”, “Cheetos Lightning Bolts”, and “Cotton Candy Sunset Clouds”!

Rainbow Flavored Drinks

Fruit dip is made with cream cheese and marshmallow cream.

Pizza is made with pepperoni, olives, and cheddar to create and “X” symbol.

Storm Cake

I followed the directions on the white cake box then covered it in my buttercream and then marshmallow fondant. Last I used black buttercream to spell her name and make cracks with the lightning bolt.

Buttercream Icing

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup butter
  • 1 cup Crisco
  • 4 cups powdered sugar (2 lbs)
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 tablespoon milk (if thick)

Directions:

  1. Cream together the butter and Crisco with a mixer.
  2. Slowly add in 1 cup of powdered sugar at a time.
  3. Add the vanilla, if it seems too thick you can add a bit of milk.

Marshmallow Fondant Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 16 oz. Mini Marshmallows
  • 3 TBSP water
  • 2 lbs Powdered Sugar (4 cups)
  • Crisco

Directions:

  1. Grease a large glass bowl with Crisco.
  2. Pour in the marshmallows and water; then microwave at 30- second intervals, stirring after each interval, until melted.
  3. Reserve about 1/4 cup of the powdered sugar. Place the rest of the powdered sugar in a large bowl of a standing mixer.
  4. Grease the paddle attachment with Crisco and pour in the melted marshmallows on top of the powdered sugar.
  5. Beat until a dough form; there will be a lot of loose bits and sugar in the bottom of the bowl.
  6. Grease a clean work surface with Crisco and dump out the fondant and all the loose bits. Grease your hands liberally with Crisco and knead the mixture together, just like kneading bread, for about 5 minutes until smooth.
  7. Grease hands again as needed. As the fondant becomes smoother, use the reserved powdered sugar to coat the surface to keep it from sticking.
  8. Once smooth, you can divide and color the fondant. While working with one piece, cover the remaining fondant with plastic wrap to keep it from drying out.
  9. When you have your colors finished coat the fondant in a light layer or Crisco; wrap in plastic wrap and place in a large baggie for at least an hour, preferably overnight.
  10. Store at room temperature for several months. To us it, dust the surface and rolling pin with powdered sugar and roll out to 1/8 of an inch.
