Walk down Memory lane in pictures

These are all out of order, but I'm sure you get the point.

My baby is 2 today!!!!

At this exact time 2 years ago (7:19 a.m.) I was 59 minutes away from giving birth to our beautiful, precious baby girl.

I knew my life was going to be forever different, I just had no idea HOW different it truly would be.

Ellery is the light of our lives, and it's hard to believe that 2 years have gone by. In many ways it seems like she's been here forever, much longer than 2 years. And in many ways, it seems all too short.

Mommy seems to be having a really tough time with 2 for some reason. Possibly because in the last 2 weeks (seemingly overnight actually) she's gone from being a baby to really being a little girl. She's speaking in (relatively) full sentences and definately has a mind of her own. Of course, I'm thrilled that she's so bright and happy and full of life, but part of me is in mourning for my baby. :(

We have our 2 year well check at the pediatrician tomorrow afternoon - so I'll be sure to record her stats after that. I know she's . . well. . . substantial LOL

I'm going to do a walk down memory lane via picture post next. . .but I wanted to get some of my thoughts down.

YAY!!!! We have Pee pee in the potty (where it belongs)

YAY!!! Last night before her tubby I put Ellery on the potty and told her she couldn't go in the tub until she went pee pee. (yes.. i'm not above bribery)

I'm so excited!!!!!

And as a side note, my baby is going to be 2 on Wednesday. I just cannot believe it. :(

I'll surely be updating with our Christmas pictures and all later. It's been crazy busy around here!!!
