Jordyn's Special Day {2nd Birthday}

We had Jordyn's Birthday party the weekend before since her birthday was on a Wednesday.  So on her actual birthday, I took the day off {& sent Cullyn to daycare} so we could spend the day together.  Just her and I.  I started this tradition last year and it's one I hope to keep up forever.  We had so much fun!  

You woke up to a room full of balloons, which you loved!  Then we ate donut holes from Dunkin' Donuts, which was a first for all of us, and sang Happy Birthday.  You were very into it this year.  In fact, by your birthday you learned to sing Happy Birthday to yourself, which you did about 25 times a day!  I'm pretty sure after the weekend, your special day with Aunt Ashley & Uncle Myles, & your actual Birthday with me, you thought every day was going to be your birthday, complete with cupcakes and candles! :)    

After breakfast we ran to the doctor for your 2 year well check.  You weighed 25 pounds and 2 ounces {30%} 32.5" tall {24%} and your head measures 18" {54%}  You're perfect! :) 

We grabbed your favorite, chicken nuggets, from McDonalds and headed to Sky Zone for a few hours of jumping on trampolines and into the foam pit.  By the time we got home you were totally tuckered out.  You had so much fun, but kept asking for baby Cully.  You just loves him so much!  Anytime you're separated you're concerned and asking for him...it's so sweet!  I will forever treasure the days we get to spend together, celebrating another year of your life.  And I'll never forget the you made me a mama.  I am so blessed!

Happy Birthday, Baby Girl!  

Mama Loves You

A Letter to My Husband [2nd Anniversary]

Happy 2nd Anniversary 25 Months.  Unlike last year I'll keep this post short and simple.  I'm obviously a month behind...I'm pretty sure that is the new flow of life for us.  I started a letter to you just before our 2nd Anniversary, but God threw us a little curve ball the day of, therefore delaying this post.

I cannot believe we've been married TWO years.  Most of the time, I feel like we're still dating.  It's weird to think I've known you almost 5 years.  I love that you were my best friend before we started dating...I can honestly say you're still my very best friend.  I have no idea what I would do without you.  You have the biggest heart and your goal is to make everyone happy always.  You remind me that we've already rented the movie I'm about to rent again, you know exactly what I need when I've had 'a day,' and you support me no matter how crazy my ideas are [even when I want to crackle paint the lakehouse & take doors off the cupboards].  I still getting butterflies thinking about you and the way handle Jordyn sends chills through my body.  God blessed us with the most perfect, precious baby girl exactly two years to the day we officially gave ourselves to each other...we could not have received a better gift. 

I love you more than I thought possible.  Our life just keeps getting better & I cannot wait to see where we go from here.  Thank you for the amazing chocolates, wonderful dinner downtown, and making me a mama!

I Love You!
