Our baby is a 2 year old



These past few weeks have been super busy with my sister, dad and mother in law all flying in to visit us. In the process of celebrating Christmas we also celebrated Little's 2nd birthday!  It was very mellow, one because she doesn't need much to be impressed and two because it was the day that Syssa (Alyssa) and Grandpa flew in. All she asked for was muffins and rainboots like her sisters. Once Dad came we took her shopping for Hello Kitty rainboots which she has put on everyday since. Which makes perfect sense, they are appropriate for all outfits. Aunt Susan sent her some new fruit for their play kitchen, a pully alligator, and a some great story books. Mom sent her this beautiful vintage doll highchair circa 1950's from Etsy and some "baby bottles" for the babies. She had a great birthday!






She is shy yet fearless and we hear her laughs all day. She is our most affectionate child, and endlessly will announce how she loves you. She's incredibly delightful and is forming her own litle scratchy/sqeaky voice just like her sister. If you haven't heard the Bg Girl talk, it's quite funny. She looks so feminine but she has this little bird voice, almost like she is squacking. Which apparently runs in the family because now Little is getting it.








We also had our wedding anniversary the day after Little's big day. We celebrated seven years of marriage and eight years of being a couple. Over the years my sister has become much more attentive to my needs as a mother of three and a married woman. She gave us the BEST gift ever. An entire date day which began at 9 am and ended about 8pm. It was weirdly nice to sit in a quiet house, take our time, it was so needed. In fact while she was here we had three dates, WHAT!?!? Best sister ever! We went to our favorite spot Rockies, the beach was covered in sand just a few weeks ago. Just a reminder that it's winter and we live on lava rock.
