Look who is 2!

I seriously can't believe my baby girl is 2 today. Time flies! She has been such a ray of sunshine in our home. Happy birthday, precious girl!

All ready for her Hello Kitty party yesterday :)

Her cute and yummy cake!

Milestones: She knows the whole alphabet by sight and can tell you any letter (and sounds of some of them too) She also loves to sing the ABC song, color, paint and do puzzles. Oh, and play tea party, dress up and play with her princesses - she knows their names and her favorite is "Arella" (Cinderella). The other day she said "I princess Arella!" <3  She is starting to potty train (she will tell me sometimes) and I plan on doing it in earnest in the Spring. She talks all the time and has such a large vocabulary!

Fun night

We went out to eat at the Capitol Hotel with Darian and Tyler and Dad and Tina, a really neat historic hotel then we went to a play. It was so much fun and the play was so sweet, it was Because of Winn Dixie.

At the hotel!

Gorgeous real christmas tree! It was HUGE!

At the play!

Christmas Eve

We had a wonderful Christmas! It was fun that both the kiddos were old enough this year to get into it!

Christmas Eve joy :) Headed to party at Nana's.

Our decorations

She LOVES her doll, bottle and baby bed! Pa made it for her, so special!!

Icky Sickies

We had the flu for 2 weeks which was totally miserable, thankfully we got well just in time for Christmas!

Comforting her brubby <3

Taking his minions tempature ;)

This sums up that time.. YUCK!

And I think this is how we got the flu:

The kiddos were playing and Victoria slammed the door shut and his finger was in the back near the hinge :( Very traumatic for him.. Took him to the ER and they x-rayed and bandaged it (he wouldn't let me near it) thankfully it wasn't broken! Anyway, there was people there that appeared to have the flu...
