Look Who's Two!!

I really can't believe my baby girl turned 2 today!!

It's gone by so fast, but then again,

it seems like she's been here forever.

She's brought so much happiness & fun to our family,

our Thanksgiving Baby.

We had her big party before my parents left,

so today was just a fun, relaxing family day...

I read her a story...

(and she sat through the whole thing - that's a first!)

she had her favorite breakfast of cereal

(in a bowl, with milk & a spoon as she always reminds me)

she had a bath...

posed with Doopy for a picture (for Uncle Jeff)


I love her baby curls after her bath...

She discovered her presents...

but was not happy to have to wait to open them

until Daddy got home...

We had a birthday dinner at Red Robin

& I shared my chocolate milkshake...

Mmmm!

she got her own mac & cheese which she ate so good all by herself...

and a little ice cream sundae...

She opened all her presents by herself, also a first this year...

I had to make a pumpkin pie for my Thanksgiving baby... (& she blew out the candles all by herself, another first!!)

looking cute in her new "nammies"

Crashed out after a fun, fun birthday...

I love you so much my sweet, sweet birthday girl!

Things I want to remember about Bayli at 2 years old:

26 lbs. 12 oz. (50th percentile)

33 1/2 inches (50th percentile)

• She loves hot chocolate!!
• She's starting to sing little songs (so cute!)
  She still loves to nurse & nurses to sleep.
• her sweet wet baby kisses
• She pushes a chair all over the house so she can climb on everything.
• Her funny, funny words (mimi=finger, minon=princess, there's a lot!)
• She loves to dance.
• the way she pats my back when she gives me a hug
• her sweet, still-chubby little feet
• She loves Barney.
• She really loves her Uncle Jeff.
• the way she tells Cooper "sit" and "stay"
  
  Happy Birthday my Angel!
