Happy Birthday Evie!

It's hard to believe our baby girl is now 2 years old. I get choked up thinking about how I used to hold her in my arms and rock her and wonder how such a little (big) baby could have such a loud cry (scream). I am so proud of our daughter. She teaches me how to be a good person everyday. God has been very good to us...For Evie's birthday, we celebrated with family on Sunday at the beach. Well....we weren't anticipating a typhoon, but it was a nice time despite the wind. Then on her birthday Evie had an Elmo birthday party!!! It pretty much made her life! She had an Elmo cake, Elmo cookies, Elmo balloons, and decorations. A few of my stay-at-home moms came with their kids and went swimming. It was a great day. That evening we went to Shawn's softball game and she got to have a special treat for dinner- McDonald's! WOW! Evie is talking so much these days and she still has a raspy voice- I think that will be her trade mark. Temper tantrums have become a specialty and the phrase "use your words" can be heard at least a million times in one day! Just yesterday Evie started singing on her own and follow directions of songs. It is so cute! She is way into being a helper and LOVES her brother to pieces. As a matter of fact, she was at her Nanna's for a couple of nights and when she got back she pretty much gave Jude 10minutes of hugs and kisses. We couldn't be any happier that she loves him so much! And one last thing, besides during sleep times, Evie is potty trained! Woo hoo!
