Daryn is 2!

We celebrated Daryn's 2nd birthday in Houston. She had a total blast and was pretty much completely spoiled :).

 I got her cake from a local bakery, and it was so stinking cute! (And sooo yummy)

Her big present from Gigi and Granddaddy was this electric ride-on Minnie car. 

At first she was like "Say what?!?"

And then she was like "Dad. I am not amused."

And then she was like "Wheeee!!"

The gang:

Time for cake!

(We also celebrated Abigail's 1st birthday, a couple days early)

Daryn got some pretty sweet presents- lucky girl! It was so nice to have my aunt and uncle there to celebrate with us, as well as couple of the Brunson's family friends. 

 A few things about Daryn at 2 years old:

- weighed 22 lbs at the doctor this morning (10th percentile in height and weight)

- wears mostly 18 months clothes and size 4 shoes

- talks in phrases and sentences, can say almost anything and is still a repeater

- knows a few of her colors but gets them mixed up

- can count objects up to 4

- loves nursery and her gymnastics class- is becoming much more social

- loves to eat, especially meat, and guzzles water

- loves swings, slides, and the trampoline

- loves singing, knows Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star

- is very independent, but also pretty cooperative

- she is so sweet and very good-natured and pleasant

- loves fish- anywhere she can find them- she is obsessed!

- loves to climb up and jump off of things

- is very healthy- she gets sick less than anyone one else in our family, I think!

What a blessing it has been to be this girl's mother for the past 2 years. If I could have looked ahead and seen where we are now, it would have given me so much peace when she was born. She is truly an angel sent to our family.
