Happy Birthday to my Sweet Princess!!

Two years ago...

I felt like we had waited my whole life to meet you...

I had never felt such instant love...

We first laid eyes on our beautiful little girl...

I cried HUGE tears of Joy...

We started on the most amazing journey...

Today...

We couldn't imagine life with out you...

You bring so much LOVE and JOY into our lives...

You make life SO interesting and fun...

You talk more than I can even comprehend at times...

You sing the ABC's (replacing LMNOP with ElmoP), Twinkle Twinkle, Itsy Bitsy Spider, and WonderPets on a everyday basis...

You count to 11...

You know most of your colors, even though when asked everything is brown...

You love babies, animals, puzzles, Play-Doh, reading, and coloring...

You are well on your way to being potty trained...

You LOVE being outside and swimming...

You are now in a big girl bed...

You talk on the phone and play on the computer...

Your favorite things to watch are Mickey Mouse, Elmo, Yo Gabba, Olivia and Phin and Ferb...

Today...

You are an amazing little girl...

Mommy and Daddy are SO proud of you and we LOVE you SO much...

Today Princess...

You are TWO!

Big Girl Bed!

 For Alivia's 2nd birthday, we made the leap to a big girl bed!  I found it on Craigslist, spruced it up a bit, and then found a dresser and nightstand to match! 

 She seems to approve!  We will have to see how the first few nights go....

Can you tell me how to get to Alivia's 2nd Birthday Party?

 

 

Sand in the City 2011

The Nebraska Children's Home Society Foundation held their 8th annual Sand in the City event this past weekend.  The prior 3 years I volunteered as a designer for a sponsoring company.  This year, LEO A DALY teamed up with our client SAC Federal Credit Union to be a sponsoring team.  It was fun to design and build with people that I work with on a regular basis outside our daily office setting.  Our theme this year was the Road to Omaha based on theCars 2 movie set to come out at the end of this month!

New Park

The new park off 192nd and Dodge FINALLY opened.  We had been eyeing it since late last summer.  Although it was lacking in the slide department (there is only one small one), there were pleanty of other fun activities to keep Alivia busy.

balls!

Melissa and Livi swinging together!

Alivia thought Melissa was funny!

loud fun bells!

spinny thing...

See ya next time!

Finding Nemo...

Alivia and I made a trip to the zoo with a few friends a couple weeks ago.  We invited Melissa (one of our favorite babysitters) and Caleb and Cady (so that their mama Holly could get a couple hours of sleep after working all night).  We had such a fun time.  We pet the goats, rode the carousel and train, saw bears and monkeys but the highlight of the day was the aquarium.  Last year we only saw the fish once and Alivia HATED the aquarium tunnel.  This year was completely different.  She couldn't get enough of the fishies, sharks and turtles.  And we for sure found Nemo and Dori!!

Playtime...

at a favorite place

with her favorite friend!

Bunny Foo Foo

Easter was super fun this year.  Alivia LOVED hunting for Easter eggs and by the 4th hunt (yes 4) she was a pro.  We saw the Easter Bunny (aka Bunny Foo Foo) at the mall but only for a short hello...no picture.  If you saw our Santa picture, you can only imagine how the bunny would have gone.  We did manage to take picture with the Easter Bunny when it visited Jamie and Darren's house.  If you look at her face you will see she wasn't too happy about it. (If she only knew it was her Uncle Darren!)
