Happy 2nd Birthday, Sweet Baby Girl!

I am just blown away that my precious little baby is turning 2 today! Time just goes by too quickly. I can remember each of these pictures being taken and what we were doing at the time and I simply can't believe two years have already flown by. Anastyn is as much a joy to us now as she was in those precious first moments. She loves to laugh and play. Being outside is her all time favorite place, she could run around a yard all day! She can pretty much tell us what ever it is that she wants. We still struggle to understand some of her words, but she is perfecting them and picking up new ones all the time. She is potty trained (except for bedtime). She loves to dance to any music that is playing, and she likes to sing, but only the songs that she picks out. She can be difficult at times, being that she is quite stubborn when it comes to wanting something in particular. Still not a huge fan of getting her hair washed during bath time, but she loves to play in the water. She loves giving and receiving kisses, especially right before bedtime. She gives the best hugs and kisses ~ mommy and daddy absolutely adore them! She finally likes me to cuddle and rock her, but only when she chooses, usually when she is trying to avoid bed, but we don't mind taking advantage of that. She has her daddy wrapped tightly around her little finger and he can make her laugh harder than anyone or anything else! What more can I say? God has blessed us so richly with a precious gift and we pray we will raise her to be a strong christian woman and teach her of His love for her.We are sad to see her growing so fast, yet so excited as she changes and discovers new things. She learns so quickly and makes us smile more than anything in this world. Happy 2nd Birthday, Anastyn! We love you so much! Here are some pictures of her from the last 2 years.

I like the walk down memory lane! I can't believe she is already two! Maybe in the next two years, she will grow to love me:) We had a great time playing with her last week. Looking forward to seeing you all at the fair. Love you!
