Happy Birthday Sweet Pea!

Piper's 2 today!!


Yesterday Steve commented on how impressed he was that we've kept our little Piper alive for 2 years now! He said I've actually done most of the work though, so I deserve the presents - not her. Hmmm... I like that theory. Can't wait to see what Santa has under the tree for me :)

But I digress...


Our sweet little angel straight down from heaven. Look at that crooked foot. Silly Grandma - she thought it was going to be stuck like that forever. But nope, it just needed to stretch out for a bit.

2 months and all smiles


9 months - growing so big!

13 months - lovin' the snow

18 months - sittin' pretty

20 months - enough hair for piggies!

23 months - my little cutie patootie

This year went even quicker than the first. I think Piper wanted to remind me that today is going to be so much more fun than it was two years ago; she woke up precisely at 7:20 - the time I gave birth to her two years ago this morning! Thanks for reminding me Sweetie! (Like I'll ever forget.)


At 2 years old, Piper weighs in at 25 pounds and is 36.5 inches tall. She has 16 teeth, knows how to make lots of animal sounds, can count from 2-9 on occasion, says tons of words linking 2-3 together, and thinks every color is "blue".

*Things she loves:
-daddy, mommy, grandma, grandpa
-her doggie, Zoei (actually she loves tormenting her doggie by crashing her doll stroller into her)
-Monday lunch at Cafe Rio (to eat a "dilla" with Reagan & Nico)
-watching "Wiggles", "Nemo", "Elmo", and "Piper" (home video)
-singing - usually "ashes" (ashes ashes we all fall down) or "twinkle" (twinkle twinkle little star)
-balloons & balls
-Discovery Gateway
-Halloween (anything in a costume is a "halloween man" - she is off the Jesus is a halloween man kick, but now Santa is a halloween man)
-putting things in the garbage - yesterday it was the flashlight
-to jump and run fast (she likes to tell you that she is "fast")
-m&m's
-to say "I need, I need" while taking your finger and leading you into the kitchen to stand on the counter and look in the cupboard 500+ times a day
- sips off her daddy's coke
-her blanky and her binky


Happy Birthday Piper! Mommy & Daddy love you to pieces!!
