My Baby is 2!!!

This little angel of ours is already 2! I can't believe it. She has so much energy she could run a half marathon herself!

Some of the things we love about Julia:
The way she says, "I lu you," when she goes to bed (and all throughout the day for that matter).
As soon as my driver door shuts after getting in the car and the keys are in the ignition, Julia is yelling, "buckle mommy, buckle," until I am clicked in.
Every time she is sitting at the table and you walk in the room she says, "by you," She wants you to sit by her. Love it.
She is saying sentences and talking like crazy.
She says cupcake, coop cake...it's adorable.
Love that she hasn't tried to climb out of her crib!
She pulls the goofiest faces I have ever seen. She is such a character.

Things we could do without, but love her all the same:
That she learned how to open doors with child locks on them 12 hours after I put them on.
That she throws her food on the floor faster than you can blink and likes to smash food in her hands as well. There is always a LOT of clean up at meal time.
That she is into everything and moves from place to place destroying things.
That she is growing up too fast.

But with a smile like this she melts our hearts.


On her birthday, after sneaking 2 cupcakes while I wasn't looking and finding her toy in my room before I wrapped it, we sang to Julia. A few days later we did a family party with Josh and Carol and Eric and Cindy. (Pics to come.) She was so cute when we sang to her. She just grinned from ear to ear!!!

She was quite the little pro at blowing out her candles.



She is the only 2 year old we have had that has been excited about getting clothes for presents. It was so fun to watch her open them.

Please note that these pants were not what I had on her that day. I am not color blind. She spilled all over herself just before we started the pics and zeb grabbed those....aren't they great? ;)

The toy she already knew about. She is such a ham.

A picture with all my girls together, while smiling, is hard to get. But this will do!
The girls were so excited to celebrate Julia. We love you, JULES!!!!!!

Can it really have been 2 years since you guys moved away and Julia came into the world? Oh my how time flies. She sure fits the "Fish" mold- what a cutie!
