Alexis' 2nd Birthday!

I can't even believe this little girl is TWO years old!


To celebrate, this past weekend we had a family birthday party where we made pulled pork, coleslaw, quinoa salad, and mac and cheese!  DELISH!  My parents, Steve's mom, Jess, baby charlie, and Steve's brother Phil came.  





Alexis LOVES singing Happy Birthday, but if you try to sing it to her…. you better be prepared for some serious tears.  I'm not sure what the issue is, but it's pretty cute.  









Alexis got lots of nice gifts that she loves!  She is such a lucky little girl.









We celebrated her birthday again on Monday, her actual birthday.  It was fun and easy.  We ordered pizza and I made brownies.  She got to open cards and more presents from her mommy and daddy!  It really was a great day!





At TWO years old, Alexis is quite the talker.  Just this past week she started speaking in complete sentences.  Her voice is so sweet and innocent, then her little sassy attitude comes out!  haha  She LOVES her baby dolls and playing with legos.  Bouncing balls is one of Alexis' favorite things to do.  She wears size 2T clothes, 6T shoes and 4 diapers.  She likes wearing dresses, singing, praying, shoes, and eating….everything!  Right now Alexis' favorite food is the avocado bacon salad I make that has a fried egg on top.  What TWO year old likes salads???  THIS ONE DOES!  give her toast, bread, cookies…and she says "no thank you" but give her a salad and she's all about it! Alexis is weighing in at 30lbs and 34 inches tall.  If what they say is true about doubling their hight at two years old to determine their adult height then alexis will be 68 inches tall (5'6").  :)  JUST PERFECT!





Alexis,
We love you so much and have enjoyed you grow into such a sweet little girl!  You are kind and compassionate and confident.  It is wonderful to see your personality develop and evolve.  You are just growing up so fast it is literally breaking my heart.  Slow down my baby girl!  I love you so much!  

Your mommy!
