Happy Birthday Jessie!

Our little messo Jesso turned two today.



Two. I'll admit to having trouble grasping this one. It doesn't seem possible that this baby isn't much of a baby anymore. She's a little girl with likes (Yo Gabba Gabba) and dislikes (mornings). She wants to do everything by herself now--she has to climb up in her car seat by herself which literally adds 25 minutes to every outing. She needs to be with her brothers and sister if they aren't at school, and she's starting to shun her highchair.

Sigh. At least I can still hang on to her betwixt request she still makes several times a day. When she wants to be held because sometimes being big isn't all it's cracked up to be, she'll toddle up to me with arms outstretched and say, "Ma, I carry you."

You absolutely do, little one. You absolutely do.

Two years seems to a lot faster these days, doesn't it? My "baby" girl turned 8 yesterday. Doesn't seem that long ago she turned 2. It was the same week we bought our house in Florida.
Have a relaxed and wonderful Easter break. We're hiding out at the beach for the week. Bliss...

I started reading your blog right after she was born. Happy two years to you and and me as well!!

She is way cuter than both of us though. I'm not sure which looks more delicious... the cupcakes or Jessie.

On an aside, I really like the cupcake tower. I must remember that.
