our silly little girl {things to always remember}

Although the terrible two's are just around the corner,
 I mean,
are already here,
I wouldn't trade it for any other stage.
Layla is so funny!
She is constantly making me and Lance laugh.
And we're always in total ah (sp?) of how smart she is!
She surprises us everyday.
We just love this little girl. 
--
She still wakes up with the best bed head ever...


--

Shoulder pads or mama's bra?


--

She'll be your masseuse if you'd let her...


--

Can you tell what we've been working on around our home?
Saturday morning she came to me saying,
"Mama, Potty! C'see C'see!"
I thought for sure she had put some toys in the potty.
But nope, she was just helping her puppy out.


--

Loves the baby's swing..


--

Makes this cute new face all the time.
Specially when she's in deep concentration.


::she sings I am a Child of God
(and the first time she did it, I cried. It's the sweetest sound ever)
::counts to 15
::sings her ABC's all the time
::loves Sandra Boynton books
(I highly recommend these books, they are so cute. Buy them!)
::would rather read to me or daddy instead of being read too
::comes up to me with arms wide open saying "hold you?"
(meaning she wants me to hold her)
::You Are My Sunshine sounds beautiful coming from her lips
::will sing Drop It Like It's Hott, and bounce her little bum
::still LOVES Baby Einstein
(and I'm about to go crazy every time I hear it!)
::shortly after getting in trouble she'll say "I sawry Mama."
::plays mama to her little baby
(she'll rock it, wrap it up, say prayers with it, read it books)
::waits for Lance at the door when she hears him pull into the garage, then goes crazy when he walks in
::likes to play hide-and-seek
::she'll make a mess of her room, leave, then walk back in and say "Oh my josh!, What a mess!"
(she must here me say that to much)
::still the light and joy of our lives!

I often wonder how I will ever love this second baby of ours as much as her. I know I'm an emotional wreck already because I'm pregnant, but I just cry every time I think of another baby coming. I so enjoy the time I have with Layla everyday. I must cherish every second of it, because it will all change too soon.
Don't get me wrong, I'm excited for our new addition. Just scared of change.

{sigh}

You are such a good mommy. Change is scary, but I know you and Lance will hit it head on like pros.

Change is scary! I was so excited to have a girl, but terrified of what it would be like having 2 babies. Im still adjusting, but I know its nothing you cant handle. Those babies are lucky to have you for a mom!
