It is hard to believe...

that my baby girl is going to be {2} on Sunday!! I have no idea where the time has gone, and I want it to slooooooow dooooooown!! I used to say things like “I can’t wait until Farris can walk” or “I can’t wait for Farris to say her first word” but now I am realizing that I can wait. In fact, there are some things that she is doing that I am just not ready for. Don’t get me wrong, it is comforting to know that her ‘Miss Independent’ attitude means that she isn’t completely helpless, but it is also a reminder that my baby girl is now a…Toddler!!!!

Here are 10 of this year’s milestones:

1. She took her first step…and is now running!
2. She has down the names of her family:
Daniel=Dad/Daddy
Kira=Mom/Mommy
Grandma Karen/Treva=Ma
Grandpa Rod/Larry=Pa
Dickie=Dickie
Sheena=Eena
Webster=Webbie
Lindsey=windsey
Madison=Maddie
Paxton=Pax
3. She can go off the diving board at the pool
4. She is excellent at animal sounds
5. She knows her colors
6. She can count to 10!! (I am awful proud of this one)
7. She knows how to fold her hands and pray (also especially proud of this one)
8. She knows all the words to Barney’s ‘I Love you’ song
9. Her favorite food is broccoli (steamed)
10. She is able to tell mommy and daddy….”love eww”

Happy 2nd Birthday Farris Loree!!
