My baby's 2!

Wow does the time fly when you have kids! I can't beleive my baby girl is two! I guess I can't use baby any more because she's anything but a baby anymore. She is two going on twelve. She's giving Andy and I a run for our money. She's got a ton of energy which keeps us on our toes and she's talking up a storm.

A message to my princess in pigtails on her 2nd Birthday:

Camryn, I'm sure every parent says this about their child, but honey, you truely are the brightest! I love the energy you have and that you are so social. You're just like mommy and daddy - you like to be the life of the party! Every day we can see your eyes twinkle, learning something new. And every day it's so fun to watch you learn new things. You make us laugh all the time, and it makes me so happy when I see a smile on your face. You are such a sweetheart and so much fun to play with.

Being a parent is so much more than I could ever imagined. God sure knew how to show his love for us when he sent us you. This year is going to be so much fun now that you're moving around and having full conversations. We can't wait to watch you grow even more. I pray that the Lord will continue to guide us in parenthood on this journey and thank Him for blessing us with you Cami. We love you honey! Happy 2nd Birthday!

Mommy and Daddy
