Today our little girl turns two. I am very emotional. Why? Well I can’t help but remember how painful physically and emotionally it was to get Kaylee here. All the excruciating pain for 9 months, drugs, extra ultrasounds, hospital visits, contractions every 10 minutes for half the pregnancy. And I’m grateful! We fought to get her here and she is WAY more than worth it. I wouldn’t change a thing about her. Sure we would be o.k. with fewer tantrums, but then she wouldn’t be HER! And she’s not just feisty and sassy. She is sweet. She caring. She is so full of love. She is smart. She is beautiful. She is an awesome little Mama. She is an amazing sister. She is Kaylee, and she is 2!

We had a party for her on Saturday with family and friends. It was so fun! Thank you everyone who came to help us celebrate! I made egg free cupcakes for her this year. 🙂 Her Papa turned 52 on Friday so they blew out candles together. Then Papa smushed cupcake on Kaylee’s mouth. She LOVED it! She got lots of fun stuff, and even tried to put on one of her new dresses. She is ALL girl.

Later that night we went bowling. My Dad loves bowling and it was Kaylee first time. She now loves bowling too. It took her a bit to understand that we went in order for turn taking. (She wanted to go every other person.) Thanks Jack’ee and Jason for treating. And Justin is was so fun spending time with you!

Sunday was Barry’s farewell. And after we had a family dinner and Jamie and Linda’s house. After dinner we went and took family pictures at the Opera House. I’ll post all that later. Right now I’m going to dish Kaylee up some of her favorite pizza, and a special birthday root beer float, climb in our big bed and watch a movie. Why? Because these are Kaylee’s favorite things and it’s her birthday. 😉
