Elizabeth {Two Years Old!}

My sweet little angel baby turned TWO last week!!!! I cannot believe how fast these two years have gone and how LONG they have felt! It feels so much longer than two years ago since Lizzie came into the world. SO much has happened in her short little life! It's almost a blur and is going by way too fast! I absolutely adore this little girl though...she brings a smile to my face every day and is such a little piece of sunshine for me. She may not have come at a time we planned her to but Heavenly Father knew I needed her then and need her the way she is now! I'm so grateful to have such a sweet little spirit in our home.

Here's some pics of Lizzie and Evelyn I took last week :)













I know I go on and on about her but she seriously is just the cutest darn thing! Even going into these "terrible twos", which believe me, she is not going to go through easily...she is very independent and knows what she wants! But thank goodness her core personality is a little more laid back and sweet...helps even her out pretty good :) Overall she's doing pretty good hitting the "twos". The main problems we are having is her and Andrew fighting over things...and it's not all him causing problems either...she likes to antagonize him and push his buttons just as much as he likes to push hers! They really are quite the little duo and I love seeing them together. All three of my kids are so different, I love seeing the ways they are different and then seeing them come together and play or help each other out...those few moments that happens right now are sometimes the only thing getting us through all the rest of the crazy/chaos/fighting/life we have ;) :) :) It is nice to have the younger two so much closer in age though. Evelyn gets frustrated being the oldest and wanting to do things different than the younger two or do things without them, which isn't always possible. She's such a good helper though and adores Lizzie. I love, love, love seeing her take time to play with Lizzie or show her things, it's so adorable.

Lizzie has really taken off this year! She's full on running, talking in full sentences, teasing her siblings, teasing me, she is pretty darn funny really...she's got such a fun personality, which can change SO quickly! That girl can flip the switch so fast...it's crazy ;) She's such a routine girl and is very set in her ways. It's hard to get her to change....like getting her to drop the bottle has been such a big battle! She still has a cup of milk at nap time and bed time and still wakes up asking for milk. :/ When she is done drinking her cup at nap time she'll cry and yell at me til I come get it...demanding little thing ;)

She is obsessed with Frozen right now....she sleeps with an Olaf doll every night and now a Frozen blanket (she got it for her birthday). She begs to wear her Frozen shirts all the time (she's gotten picky about what she wears...especially her shoes...she loooves shoes). She loves baby dolls and coloring and playing trains and blocks with Andrew. She loves being a big girl. She started going to the Guarderia (the daycare place Andrew went to when we first got here) in February and is doing really good there. I love picking her up and seeing her face light up when I come in. :) :) :)


Here's some pics of her throughout the past year! She's grown so much!
