Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Here are some pictures from tonight. We had to take pictures of Addison because her little St. Patty's Day shirt was so cute! It is also her 22 month old birthday! (Side note: I'm mad at blogger right now because it won't let me move the pictures around, so they are actually in backwards order. not that it really matters...but it irritates me!)

Here's our self portrait. It was take 3 after Jordan kept making goofy faces. I just got me hair cut and got low-lights so my hair's looking pretty dark. I like it dark, although I am considering some blonde highlights for the summer...maybe.


Addison is so trying to wiggle away from me here. She was so busy playing that she really did not want to slow down for pictures. She was so over it. This one cracks me up because she looks just like her daddy with that face! And it's tough to get a smile out of her when the camera's pointed at her. We got some but we took about 50 pictures.
This was what she did after I told her that if she wanted to go play then she had to smile pretty for the camera...not the best smile. And it's out of focus but that's okay.

The best I could get of Addie and Daddy! It's a motion shot...

There's a cute little grin! I think I was standing behind Jordan winking at her and making faces.
Here's a good shot of her shirt. "Daddy's Lucky Girl" I thought it was adorable! She looks like such a big girl here, instead of my little baby!

And here's the crinkle-nose smile! Love it! :)
We love her so much (totally smitten, might be a good term to use!) She is such a sweet little girl, with so much to say and show to the world!

Addison-ism's

My child is very vocal. Jordan and I were talking about her development and looked online to see some kind of stats on what a 21/22 month old should be able to do. It said they should be able to say around 30 words. I'd say that she knows well over 100 words and their meanings not including what she can repeat on demand. She says the funniest things as she's exploring her vocabulary and learning to form sentences. Here are a few things she's been saying that I want to remember. She really makes me laugh! :)

* While riding in the car, Addison apparently saw a bird because she suddenly says, "Bird! Tweet, tweet! Caaaw, Caaaw!"

* Addison labels most loud engine-y noises as airplanes (eh-paaane!) and looks up and says "upupupup in da sky!"

* We were on our way to the outer banks last weekend (a post with pictures will come soon!) we went across one of the long bridges over the sound to the island. All you could see was water and Addison looks to left and says "Wa-er!!" then she looks to her right and exclaims "TWO wa-ers!"

* Addison is learning to count. She's getting better with it but you have to start with One, two, three and she'll say four and five sometimes six or waits for you to say six then says seven and eight. The nine and ten don't normally happen, although she did she "seben, eigh, Nana" the other day, so that was getting close! :)

* Anytime we go past a pasture with pretty much any type of animal, Addison tells me that it's a "Moo-tow!" She loves Moo-Cows! and giddy-ups (horses), and bak-baks (chickens), and sheep! pretty much all farm animals!

* One of her favorite things is to request songs that she wants us to sing to her. When she's really sleepy and clingy she asks for "hush-il-baby" (Hush Little Baby). She asks for "E-I-O" (Old MacDonald had a Farm), "March!" (either If You're Happy and You Know It or Lord's Army which she also calls "yessir!"), "Sessame" (Jesus Loves Me), "Issy Spyr" (The Itsy Bitsy Spider ...she loves the hand signs and grins and giggles while you're singing!). I'm sure there are other songs she requests but I can't think of them right now.

* My little sweetie is repeating everything she hears now! We really have to be careful what we let her hear on the TV and the radio (or what we say... I don't really want my almost-two-year-old says "Dang" or "Oh my gosh!").

* This is one of the funniest things she's said...and so smart! We were sitting in my bedroom and Addison found a nearly empty ibuprofen bottle and started throwing it, saying "Addison fow it!". Jordan and I both scolded her about throwing and took it away from her when she continued to do it. She cried so I told her she could have it back, but if she threw it one more time, I would take it away for good. She nodded and held it tightly to her chest. She was walking around with it when she looked at me and says "Daddy said fow it..." She was totally making that up and testing me with it! We laughed so hard and when I finally stopped laughing, had to tell her that NO, Daddy did not say that she could throw it! Funny Girl!

* This doesn't really have a lot to do with Addison talking but she is getting close to being able to start the potty-training process. She sees me potty and has to get her little potty and set it right next to the toilet. She then sits on it and will smile up at me then pause for a minute and tell me "Addison pee pee!" Now, I have no idea whether she's actually peeing at that moment or not since she's fully diapered and clothed. But she tells us immediately when she poops and she is definitely interested in the potty process. I think in the next few months we'll really start to get serious about it. I'm not going to push it too much yet since she's not even two yet. My goal would be to have her potty trained by the time she's 2 1/2. We'll see.

* I'm getting ready to make the switch to a size 4 diaper for her. She's been in a 3 for probably over a year now and it still fits pretty well but it starting to get kind of snug so I think the 4 will definitely be more comfy for her!

* When she's running away from me or doing something that she shouldn't be I'll call out "Addison Kate!" and she repeats it, which is just super cute! "A-i-son Tate!" We got her to say Addison Cline for a while and then she would say "Mommy Cline, Daddy Cline, Nana Cline, Papaw Cline" (all of which were right)"then "Grandee Cline, Papaw Cline, Kyla (Lyla) Cline" (which were not right, but it was cute!)

She's such a sweet girl and has started asking for hugs when she's saying goodbye. It's really cute and I am so hoping that she will continue to become more and more snuggly! I love some sweet Addison snuggles!

POP!

So.... I popped Addison's (diapered) butt for the first time yesterday. It was effective! We were fixing supper while Addison was sitting in her high chair and had just finished eating her yogurt. I guess she was bored just sitting there so she started squealing. loudly. and often. So I got on to her and told her she was being "not nice" (a term she understands). I said this to her several times and as I was getting her out of the high chair and the squealing was continuing, I told her that if she squealed/screamed one more time then I was going to pop her butt. I knew she was testing me and seeing how far she could take it (the look she gave me as she was squealing was very telling). So she waited a minute or two and then gave a loud but short squeal. I came over to her and barely popped her. She broke down, cried and made a big deal for about 10 seconds. She went running to her Daddy then came right back over to me and wanted me to hold her. After about a minute of resting her little head on my shoulder she wanted to get down and play tea in her room.

The spanking worked (she didn't squeal for the rest of the night) and it didn't make me feel horrible. I was nervous but knew that if I threatened to pop and then didn't follow through after she misbehaved again, it would be very counter-productive. Jordan saw the whole thing and didn't really comment until later that evening when Addison was whining over something, he said "Don't mess with Mommy, she's tough!" I think he was surprised I had the nerve to actually pop her, though he's not against it. I can't really see him spanking her though. He's a softie!

Moving on...

I never blogged about the concert last weekend. It was fun, although had some rocky spots. We got to Charlotte fine and got a good (tiny) parking spot near the venue. We ate dinner (which was really yummy) then waited in line for about 30 minutes before going inside. about an hour later the opening band started their thing and I started feeling super sick on my stomach! I pretty much spent the whole opening act (don't worry, I really didn't miss much there...if you get what I'm saying) either laying int he car or in the bathroom. Fun times. :( But by the time Jimmy Eat World took the stage I was feeling quite a bit better. The only two songs that I knew ("The Middle" and "Sweetness") were saved for the encore and were awesome! I sang/yelled along with every word and jumped up and down and nearly got trampled by some guys standing next to us, but it was great. The last five minutes were awesome! We didn't get back home until about 12:45 and I went straight to bed! I've decided that if I go to another concert, it will be to see a group or an artist that I love and own several CDs of and all of whose songs I know well. Jimmy Eat World was great but the best part is when you can sing along with them, I for the first hour I couldn't do that because I didn't know any of the songs.

We had a good Valentine's Day on Monday even though Jordan and I didn't really do much in the way of celebration. We exchanged cards on Sunday night and then didn't make any definitive plans to have a date night. Jordan wrote sweet things in my card and told me he owed me dinner and a bead (a Pandora bead, in case you were wondering. I got the bracelet for Christmas and now almost have it full...I may have gone a bit over board with the bead purchasing, but don't tell Jordan and I just admitted to it...). I got my bead (love it!) on Monday along with some cute, happy tulips and we're doing dinner tomorrow night (at Carrabba's...yum!). We eat out a lot but we don't normally go without Addison, so tomorrow will feel more like a date!

I hope y'all have a good week!

And I'm Back

Wow, it's been a long time since I've blogged about anything. We've been busy with life for the past few months and I just haven't had much motivation to write (obviously the holidays weren't motivating me since I missed Addison turning 18 months old, Thanksgiving, Christmas, our Anniversary (6 yrs) and New Year's). Here's some bullet points to cover the past few months.

* Addison turned 18 months (and then 19 months) and I didn't write about what she's been up to, so here goes...Addison is such a sweet girl! She loves to hug and kiss you or her baby dolls/stuffed animals. She went to the doctor in November for her 18 month appointment and is a healthy little girl; her weight is in the 25th percentile, height is in the 50th percentile and her head circumference is in the 80th percentile. She talks non stop and entered a "NO!" phase but fortunately left it behind after just a few weeks. She now has the cutest little "Yeah" and knows that she is super cute, which she totally uses to her advantage. It's so hard to not give into whatever she wants with her big eyes and sweet smile! Addison got TWO baby strollers for her baby dolls and she will tell you all about them if asked. She thought that all wrapped presents were baby dolls so she was slightly disappointed to find out that some of them weren't. She's starting to talk in short sentences and can call all of our family and friends by name. It's very cute.

* We've been staying busy with the car lot. I finally figured out how to make a facebook page for it, (it's PAY HERE AUTO SALES. Feel free to LIKE us). Lots of cars have been sold and the business is doing pretty good. We have fun hanging out with our friends (and business partners) Kirby and Dustin. Addison is in love with their two boys!

* I'm having a hard time coming up with bullet point topics...(sad considering I'm covering 2 months of my life)

* I got a bad cold (immediately preceded by the stomach bug) in the beginning of November and I'm still dealing with it (although it is not bad at all now compared to what it was). Addison had been sick off and on for the same amount of time. She just got over a horrible cough that also coincided with teething. (She has 16 teeth now. Next up? 2 year molars)

* Christmas was lots of fun. We celebrated with Mom and Dad and Kyla on Christmas Eve. I got Kyla a bed pillow which are called "husbands". We had a lot of fun telling people that I got her a husband for Christmas. Lunch on Christmas Day was spent with Mom and Dad and Kyla again (impromptu lunch at the Chinese Restaurant. We waited for the "Fra Ra Ra's" and the turkey with the head still attached, but it never came. :) Gotta love that movie!). It started snowing around noon on Christmas and kept snowing until the next day. We ended up with about 6 inches of snow and it was so beautiful! We had Jordan's family over for dinner and had a great time.

* I'm going to be a New Employee Training (NET) Instructor for my work. I'm kind of excited and nervous about this. It's only for once or twice a year and I'm set to start in February. We'll see...

Here are some pictures from the past few months:
Addison in November wearing an adorable little outfit that my sister and I wore we we were little. My mom made it. She really didn't want her picture made in this one.
But once she got a cracker she was just fine!

This is from Thanksgiving day. She was not liking the camera this day either.
Dena and Ellett on Thanksgiving.

Me and Addison. This was the best we could do for a Thanksgiving family picture. She was screaming by the time that Jordan joined us so we just gave up.

Lori, Jordan and Dena. His two sisters.

The Collins family. Lori, Ellett, Conner, and Brent.
Christmas Eve at my parents house. Addison was loving the baby dolls!
Addison had a pen cap that she was using as a tool to "fix" the Ferris wheel. She really kept herself entertained with it and was very intent on "fixing" it.
Sisters

Not so great family picture!
Addison with her grandparents. Her face in this picture cracks me up.

All of us. Glad Kyla knew how to use the timer on her camera.

Addison on Christmas morning in her new chair that "Santa" brought her. Can you tell she liked it?

Cinnamon rolls on Christmas morning. Yum!

Addison was really impressed with the purse from GranDee. It came with a wallet, debit card, cell phone and lipstick.
She also really liked the puzzle.
My dad really liked the hat and mittens Addison got! :)

And the both really liked the snow!
Ellett being so sweet and cute later that night!
Lori and Addison (who was trying to wiggle away)
Jordan, his dad and Grandparents with a still wiggly Addison.

Me and my Baby girl!

Addison is 15 months old!

My baby is growing up way too fast! I cannot believe that she is 15 months old!
* She is such a smart girl (yes, this is coming from her biased Mommy). She can say several words such as, ball, dog, kitty, mama, dada, nana, night night, papaw, nona (for Gena's friend Donna) byebye, bottle (ba ba), that (as she's pointing at something), me (to get our attention normally when she wants more food) and other random things that I'm forgetting about. Addison can also do the signs for fish, eat, more, and sometimes please. The eat, more, and please she all uses in reference to food. My child likes to eat.
* Some of Addison's favorite foods are pizza, any fruit (grapes, strawberries, peaches, watermelon, blueberries), raisins or craisins, oatmeal, grits, cream-of-wheat, buttered toast, pasta (sometimes), puffs, yogurt, any kind of bread, cucumbers and sometimes pickles, any kind of cookie or ice cream and meat. The girl loves chicken and hamburgers or steak. She is a great eater. I only wish that I could get her to eat more veggies but she just doesn't seem to like them at all.
*Addison loves to walk and run around. She is always on the go if she can help it. She is a quiet explorer, always looking in cabinets and drawers. She is trying so hard to climb up on to the couch but she can't quite get up there on her own. One of her favorite activities is to put things in and out of other things. She has a toy that you can drop a ball in it and the ball rolls out of a hole at the bottom and she loves to play with that. There is a certain cabinet in the kitchen that is Addison's secret hiding spot for whatever she's carrying around with her. We have found (or seen her put in it) Jordan's car and work keys, her finger nail polish that I use on her toenails and tons of random toys. She also likes to play with her "little people" sets.
* Addison loves baby dolls. She'll hug and kiss them when prompted and has even started holding them like a little baby (or sometimes in a choke hold). If she hears a baby crying she makes her "o" surprise face and looks around for them. When she spots the crying baby (or any baby) she'll point and them and try to get to them. I can't wait to see how she'll be around her little brother or sister. I think she'll be a good big sister. :)*Addison still entertains us with her many animal sounds and we love it! She's started making a fish face that accompanies the sign that she does and she also scrunches her nose up for a rabbit. She also bounces up and down for her favorite: the horsey! We regularly hear woof, woof; meow, meow; bak, bak; duck, duck; buzzz (with hand motion); lulalulalul (with her tongue for turkey); and Mmmm(for cow). She has an animal book which she flips through and does the noises for the animal she's looking at, but normally just finds the horse and carries it around on the horse page.*Addison is such a sweet little girl. She loves to give kisses, blow kisses, wave and say "bye bye" and smile. My favorite time of day is when I put Addison to bed (and not because I'm "getting rid" of her for the day). After she finishes her bottle, we sit together and smile/make faces at each other, laugh, and just cuddle. I eat up every minute of it! It brings me to tears to think that we may not always have our special time together as she grows older (which could have something to do with pregnancy hormones...).
*Addison is picky in the mornings. She normally prefers Jordan over me, unless I get her out of bed and then she is an all over Mommy's girl (which I love-even if it makes me late for work some days). She's funny that way.

* I love my Addison so much and my love for her grows with each passing day! Although it makes me sad that she's not a little baby any more, I'm so excited to see what God has planned for our lives with her as she gets older! I thank HIM for her every day!
Happy 15 Month Birthday, Little One!!

Quick Stats; Addison this and Addison that

Addison's current favorite food is pizza.

Addison now has two more teeth. They are on the bottom so she has 4 on the top and 4 on the bottom.

Addison can now tell you what the chicken says ("ba, ba, bac") and what the kitty cat says ("MOW!"-Not to be confused with her cow sound of "Mmmmm"). I'm working on "What does Daddy say?" followed by her blowing a raspberry. It's not really working but I thought it would be funny! :)


Addison can point to her eyes, nose, mouth, ears and hair. Sometimes she'll point out mine too. Such a smarty-pants!

Addison has started saying random words throughout the day. She said "baw" several times while watch a huge ball roll across the TV screen on the nightly news tonight. Sunday she said "ish" while doing the sign we made up for fish (hands clapped together and wiggling through the "water").

Addison loves to ride on the four wheeler with her Grandpa. Actually she pretty much loves doing anything with her Grandpa.

Addison gets upset when Grandma leaves the room without her knowing it. Jordan's Grandma lives with Gena and when Addison stays there during the day, Grandma is her buddy! Today she said she got up to go to the bathroom while Addison wasn't in the room. Addison came back in the room and started fussing when Grandma wasn't there so she tracked her down in the bathroom and started hugging her leg.

Addison also steals food from Grandma, or at least begs her mercilessly for it.

Addison is almost running now.

Addison can climb stairs like no one's business.

Addison refuses to take her milk in a sippy cup. She completely melts down when I try to give her her milk in a sippy cup instead of her bottle. She only takes a bottle 2 or 3 times a day: when she wakes up and goes to bed is an always and sometimes she takes a midday bottle when she's particularly grumpy. It's work in progress. One of her only vices since she didn't have a hard time giving up a paci or nursing.

Addison's smile will melt your heart. It does mine.

Addison makes my day. Every day.

Addison Kate is 14 months old!

Addison, You are 14 months old!

* You are such a spunky little thing with very strong likes and dislikes. I think "strong-willed" would be a good term to describe you.


* You will throw a fit if things don't go your way or if something is taken away from you or not given to you. Most of the time a meltdown signals that it is time for a nap, but they still happen occasionally when you aren't tired.


* You are normally are happy and smiley and such a joy to play with.


* You can say a few different things now such as Mama, Dada or Daddy, Night night, Nana, and Hey or Hi. You know the sign for eat and more and we're working on please, thank you, bath, and drink or thirsty (which I'm going to use interchangeably).


* You know several animal sounds: Woof for dog (this is by far your favorite. You bark at all dogs that you see and some cats), Lul lul lul for turkey (sticking your tongue in and out quickly), Mmmm for cow, Duck, duck, duck for...duck, Eww(very high pitched) of Kitty cat (this is still a work in progress..) and my favorite is the Bee. You goes SSSssss (your version of buzzing) and use for hand to get yourself because we always say the bee is getting you and make the "bee" come and tickle your neck. You are just so adorable.


* You like to talk to people and yell Hi to them (loudly and repeatedly until they acknowledge you). You are a very social baby.

* You are still sleeping great through the night and normally take two good naps a day. I hope this continues for a long time.

* You are still wearing size three diapers and 12 month clothes. Your size 3 shoes are starting to get tight and I'll have to move you to the 4s soon. They just look so big! I think you have definitely gotten taller in the past month. We missed one week of church while we were at the beach and the Sunday we came back everyone commented on how much you had grown over the past 2 weeks. You're definitely slimming down and your little rolls are shrinking. Makes mommy sad...

* You are a walking pro now. In fact you are almost running sometimes. You can fly up a flight of stairs in no time and your working on figuring out the coming back down thing.

* You love to give kisses and now you actually pucker to give them instead of the open mouth kiss you previously gave. You are such a sweetie!

* You are now sitting forward facing in your big girl car seat and I think you like it. It is harder for you to go to sleep since you can see Mommy and Daddy up front now. We also can't get away with eating anything in the car without giving you some too.

* You love Tripp and chase him around the house while laughing hysterically. Very cute!

* Your Daddy and I love you so much (and we tell you all the time) and so enjoy witnessing all of your milestones and learning! You are a very smart girl!

It's Offical

That's right. Addison is officially walking! I would say that yesterday was the day she really started walking. All week she's been talking a few steps (up to 7 or 8) at a time. Well yesterday she would actually let you put her down in the middle of the room, standing up and just take off (timidly) toward you or whatever caught her attention. She's going to be hard(er) to keep up with soon!

I just wanted to document the milestone!!

Baby Steps

Monday, Addison came to see me at work (Gena brought her). When they came in, I went out to the lobby and got her out of her stroller and played with her for a bit. She loves to push her stroller around so she was doing that then realized that Gena's purse was hanging from the handles and that she could reach into it. Addison grabbed a pen and help on to instead of the stroller so I pushed the stroller out of her reach. I figured she would just sit straight down and crawl to it, but she actually took 5 or 6 steps unassisted to get to it!!

I was stunned! It was the coolest thing to have seen her take her first steps at my work! As a working mom, I have prepared myself to miss some of her firsts (the first time she rolled over is one I missed) so I figured that my mom or Gena would tell me the exciting news of some first steps one day when I picked her up.

Addison and I were playing in the floor yesterday evening and she pulled up on a toy then let go of it to just stand next to it. I moved the toy several feet away from her and she walked 6 to 7 wobbly steps over to it! I called Jordan over to see it, but she refused to do it again. I'm betting it won't be long before she is really walking and even running! My baby is growing up so fast!!

Addison Kate is 13 months old!


Addison, you are 13 months old today!

* You are such a sweet, spunky little thing with a huge personality. You love to be around people and you always talk to them. We'll be walking through Walmart and you very loudly announce that you want to talk to another shopper by saying "'IIIiiiii!" (Hi) or "Aaaayyy!!" (Hey). It's very cute. If no one talks back to you then you continue to talk to them, getting louder and louder with each turn. You are definitely your Daddy's child, little social butterfly! Oh, and the only time you're shy is if someone comes up and talks to you first. Then you either stare and them or smile shyly into my shoulder. You always make your Momma laugh!

* You love to play with baby dolls (Especially ones that aren't yours that you've stolen from your cousins at church...). I'll tell you to give baby a kiss and you'll kiss her head and when I tell you to hug baby you hug her tight and smile. It's so cute. I can't wait to see how you interact with your little sibling (I just hope you don't bite or thrown him or her across the floor like you do with your babies.)

* You like to wave hello and bye bye to anyone. Sometimes it's with your fist (normally facing back towards yourself) and sometimes its with your whole arm. Either way it sweet and very cute. Everyone loves it when you wave.

*You also now know how to give kisses and blow kisses. I'll tell you to give me a kiss and lean forward with your little lips poked out just a bit and go "UUuuummmm-aaah" making the kissing noise. Its so cute. Blowing a kiss works the same way except instead of leaning forward you just bring your pudgy little hand to your mouth and hold it there while making the kissing noise. You are so just so smart!

* You also like to push things. If your stroller is in the house, you will go straight to it and start pushing it around. You do this with anything that moves (weather or not it has wheels...) such as the little horse that you are supposed to ride or the chair in the kitchen that is strategically placed into front of certain cabinets that you don't need to be opening.

*You love to smile and laugh.

*You now know a few different animal sounds. When i ask what a doggie says, you say "woof woof". When I ask what a cow says, you say either "Boooooo" or "MMMMMMmmm". When I ask what a duck says, you say "duck duck duck". It's still a work in progress but it's super cute!

* You also say "Mama", "Dada"(sometimes it's "Daddy"), "Hey", "doggie" (kindof), "kitty", "yummy" and many other things that you are working on. You are quite the cutie!

*Your favorite game is to run around the house either or Daddy's shoulder's or in Mommy's arms chasing Tripp (or anyone really). You cackle and laugh so hard, especially when someone jumps out and scares you.

* You love to play on your Rose Cottage house from your Aunt Viv. Opening and closing the oven or dryer doors is your favorite thing.

* You still do really well in the car. Sometimes we give you a snack cup with cereal in it if you're fussy and you are happy as can be. You'll still go to sleep in the car if you're tired as long as you have your blanket with you (which you are still very attatched to and need anytime you are falling asleep).

* You have decided that it's really fun to scream/squeal while we are eating out in a restaurant. I don't know how to stop you from doing this, since your still so little. We try to tell you "no" very sternly (which you cry) or take you out or the restaurant (which you like) or tell you that we are inside and we have to be quiet while we are inside (which you don't get). We're working on it.

* You still say "yeah" and "no" in response to questions. This amuses/surprises people and they think it's so cute. I wonder how much you really understand as it seems that you often have an appropriate answer!

* You still fit nicely in most size 12 month outfits and size 3 shoes, with a few exceptions.

* You are getting faster in moving around and closer to walking every day. You've taken a few steps while holding a toy in your hand a few times. You can stand by yourself for a few minutes until you notice your not holding on to anything. You can even squat down with out support if you don't realize you're doing it. I think you are just timid. It will happen when you are ready.

* You love to eat most of the time. Some days it seems as if you don't stop eating all day! You love just about any fruit or meat, especially grilled chicken and steak. Vegetables aren't your favorite and you may or may not eat them, depending on your mood. You love yogurt. You are mainly eating all table foods and very rarely eat baby food. You do still love your puffs, veggie dip crunchies, yogurt melts, goldfish of all flavors, and cheerios.

*You sleep great, normally going to bed at 8:00 and getting up at 7:00. you very rarely wake up in the middle of the night and for this I owe you a huge "THANKYOU for letting mommy sleep"!

* You have 6 teeth now. You have four on top and 2 on bottom. I think the next two bottom teeth are going to be coming in soon.

Your Mommy and Daddy love you so much and look forward to watching you grow up and discover and learn new things! You mean so much to us! I love you, Baby Girl!
