Two years ago yesterday I was handed a tiny baby girl and my life hasn’t been the same since. Hang on with me for a few minutes because momma is about to get sentimental and that means lots of pictures.
See all that dark hair? Yep 9 months of hard work and I was handed a miniature version of my husband. All that work I went through and there wasn’t a speck of me in her looks, at least my husband makes a cute girl I guess.

She was instantly full of personality all her own.

Usually that personality includes some A LOT of attitude


Her nickname of ‘Gabbs’ was eerily very correct despite her small size. Getting her a cell phone down the road is already out of the question. Although daddy thinks it wouldn’t be that bad, uh huh sure whatever….


She loves anything with sugar just like her momma.

We LOVE dress up, very few days pass when a fairy/princess/whatever costume isn’t put on. Apparently I’m not that good at hiding them. 
Dancing around the room in said costume is also a must. We dance all the time, and she gets her mad skills from me thankfully!

Pig tails are usually requested over bows most days. Along with these pig tails she usually requires a ‘sveter’ also known as a sweater to the rest of us. Suddenly over night she’s become some preppy hipster!

Cheerios are best eaten after being dumped all over the floor.

I have a wonderful helper to “cook” every time I dare touch the stove to say boil water. Oh and we have matching aprons like this one that must be worn if said stove is touched for even a moment. 
Our newest favorite thing in life is slides. She could go down them all day long provided I didn’t get tired and I have a stash of ‘nak’ toddler for ‘snack’ (For the record the sweater was demanded at her request and yes I know it doesn’t match her outfit but good luck trying to tell her that!)

She has yet to meet a playground she doesn’t love. This is where we ended up playing after I thought it’d be grand fun to show her how to fly a kite. After three trips chasing her down towards the playground and I finally gave up

My life is filled with a lot more drama now, usually the good kind..

sometimes, well not so much the good kind..

But I wouldn’t trade my drama filled life for a ‘boring’ one or anything else now.

Happy birthday baby girl!
P.S. Can you believe that I’m ‘only’ a day late in this post? Wow


Adorable!
She is too cute!! Love ALL these pics
Awww…I loved reading through this post. She’s grown up so much! She’s absolutely adorable and I love her smile!
Good job mama! I was suprised to see several pics I’ve never seen before! SO cute. She is starting to look a lot like one of your sisters (the one who doesn’t look like you). I can’t believe she is two already!
Happy Birthday little one!! She’s adorable!!
