3 Amazing Years


3 years ago we welcomed our baby girl into this world.  She was big, loud, and full of life.  We were both so in love with her, even if she did cry for hours on end and keep us up all night.  She made our lives so much sweeter and brought some pink into our house!  
5 days old, what a sweetie!
3 weeks old, what a chunk!
One year old.  How the time flies!

Turning into a little princess, somehow this phase didn't last long.
18 months old, funny girl.
20 months old.
2 years old!  

2 1/2 years old, she is so pretty!
3 Years Old.


These last 3 years with this girl have been amazing.  She has so much spunk and love for life.  She still throws lots of fits, cries all the time, and tests my patience every day.  But she is also very loving and sweet.  Gets so sad if something happens to Aiden, loves to cuddle with us, not often but we hang onto all the chances we get and that makes them so much sweeter, has a soft spot for animals of all kind, and can't wait to be big.  She has been telling me for the last 6 months that she isn't 2, she 24!  She knows that she is a girl now, but her favorite color is still blue and she rarely plays with doll or barbies, just animals.  When she dresses up she doesn't dress up like a princess, she comes out as a Tiger or a Dinosaur.  She is spontaneous, goofy, and never seems to run out of things to do that makes us laugh.  Although I offer to give her away almost daily I wouldn't give her up for anything.  My favorite thing about her right now is that she will come running up to me and grab my leg and say, "You are my best mommy ever."  Melts my heart every time.
