I wrote this post in September and I must have forgotten to hit post! Well here it is... I'll catch us up after this!
September 2012.....
I can't believe Laila, my baby girl, just turned two years old! Time really does go by so fast. Before Laila was born, everyone always told me, "enjoy them while they are young because they aren't little for very long." Every part of that is true. I have enjoyed every moment of her life. The laughs, the giggles, the tough days, all of it. God has blessed us more than I could have ever asked for. I have LOVED being her mommy every single day. She has brought so much joy into our lives, brought new meaning to our lives. As a husband and wife, she has brought us closer as her parents. God reveals himself to us over and over again. I have loved growing as a parent alongside my husband, loving him more and more every day. He is such an amazing father and his love for us shows so much!
Laila is so amazing. I am sure every mommy says that about their child, but its really true. A few things she is doing at 2 years old.
- Talking talking talking! She is a jabber box and I can understand alot of what she says and she can put 3 to 5 words together at a time.
- Ask her how old she is, she says "Two!"
- Loves dress up
- Loves to eat!
- Counts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10
- Loves to dance. The girl can really move to the beat, she has rythm
- So loving, gives lots of kisses and hugs
- Says I love you! The sweetest sound!
- I could go on and on and on.

Trying to get her to smile at the camera
So she smiled at me instead, silly girl.
My sweet friend and neighbor Cheryl took these pictures for us in Old Town Spring. It was suprisingly quick and easy. She did such a great job!!
