Little Walks

Life as a mother to this girl is indescribably amazing! 

Tough at times but I cannot describe the feeling of having so much love for one thing!

 It has been incredible to see Shayna grow and change so much everyday. 

She has so much personality. Being a late blogger (should have started 2 years ago when I had her I have a tone of milestones to catch up on).

This post is dedicated to our little beauty! Before we know it we will be blogging about our 2 special girls so Shayna needs her solo time!!!

I cannot believe she is 2!!!!! 

We officially are parents of a toddler! She understands most of what we tell her, has her own opinion about things, and TALKS a ton!!

She is the most beautiful thing ever!

*Not just saying that because I am her mom ;)

I saw her in a dream when I was pregnant and she has every feature I dreamt she had. From those big brown eyes to that button nose!

Boy is she spunky!

Keeps us on our toes....that is for sure!

She loves learning!!! 

Loves Library trips :) and her Bella! These two have so much fun together!

We call this the "story time" blanket. April made it for me when I was pregnant with her and it is seriously my FAV! Well our FAV! Shayna gets so excited when this thing comes out because she knows its story time!

She loves to explore and has begun asking "WHY???" to everything!

She is adventurous to an extent. She will not try new things unless we are right there next to her. She just barely like last week got over her fear of slides! Still our baby!

Loves her Cousins! Like a TON!!!

She wants to do everything the older girls do! It is super funny! Such a girly girl!

She lovesssss dress up too!

Wishes she could ride her bike! 

She is not strong enough yet it is so fun to see her try though!

Has been OBSESSED with grapes and apples lately!

Will eat whole apples and the entire bowl of grapes if we let her!

One milestone that we absolutely have fallen in love with is her concept of prayer.

Every morning, night and before meals we either kneel at mommy and daddy's bed or at the table for prayer. She folds her arms, closes her eyes and she repeats some words. One day Will had his eyes open to see what she was doing and she yelled at him to close his eyes!!!

She has started calling me mom now. It is so funny! No more mama status straight up MOM what are you doing??? Or MOM come here! Willie is DAD sometimes but most the time DADDY. She has been so concerned lately with where daddy is ALL the time when he is away for work or school and always asks to call him in the mornings it so cute! 

She is starting to understand a little sister is on the way, with us going through all the baby stuff and getting everything ready but boy is she about to get her world ROCKED!!!! I think I am going to be fighting her for baby sister all the time! She is going to want to be everywhere sister is, well we hope haha!

We love our little girl more then anything in the world! Cannot wait to experience all the changes she will make in these crucial, fun toddler years....just wish we could STOP TIME!!!!
