My Baby Turned 2!!


It's official, my baby is no longer an infant and is now a toddler! Two years ago on October 6th at 9:21 pm Little Miss Makalya was born. It was very exciting to be there for her birth and we thank her birthmom for sharing that day with us. It was a wonderful day, it was the day God completed our family! We are so thankful for our little cutie!



Makayla is really into Elmo right now. So her whole party was all about Elmo. This balloon was bigger than she was, but she carried it around hugging and kissing it all day! (That is until Jaden turned our bedroom fan on to see what would happen if he put Elmo in it...)

This year Makayla was able to blow out her own candle. She was so excited to be a big girl!

And she even ate the cake this year! If you remember, last year she would have nothing to do with the cake. Of course she ate the cake with a fork, not her hands, to make sure she did not get anything dirty on her hands!


Here is Makayla going throught the clothes and shoes from Poppy and Mamaw.


I was so excited that they brought the original Tickle-Me-Elmo back this year. I was able to find one for Makayla. She really seemed to get excited about it and I think it is just the funniest thing! I highly recommend at least playing with one in a store if you have a chance!


Makalya is really starting to get into dolls and stuffed animals. Once we got Elmo out of the box, she would not let it go!


One of Makayla's favorite outside toys was our neighbor's playhouse. Unfortunately they had to move to Virginia and the playhouse went with them. However, before leaving Mary, David, Siena, Dylan, and Nico gave Makayla a playhouse for inside. Makayla spent the day after her birthday in and out of this house. At one point in the day, I was even demanded inside. Let me tell you it gets pretty hot in there with an adult!
I hope you all are having as much fun with your friends and families as we are with ours!
