Birthday Girl!

This post is LONG overdue but here it is nonetheless...

My baby girl is 2 YEARS OLD!!!



I know every mom feels this way, but I truly cannot believe how time has flown by with Lexi. She is the sweetest, kindest, most gentle spirited little girl and she brings so much joy to our family. Her actual birthday was on Tuesday, January 31st. We had her party the Saturday prior to her birthday (the 28th). Back in November, Bryan's parents had a little party for me while we were there for Thanksgiving. Bryan videoed everyone singing Happy Birthday to me and me blowing out the candles on my cake. Lexi LOVED this video and wanted to watch it ALL THE TIME. She would bring me my phone and say, "Happy"? This meant she wanted to watch the video. So, from this time on, she referred to HER birthday as her "Happy". She would tell my mom, "Nana, Happy! You?" Which meant, "Nana, my birthday is coming! Are you coming?" It was the cutest thing ever!!! So, we all started calling it her Happy :0) We just had a family party at our place. Papa, Nana, Grandpa, Mamaw, Big Zach, Aunt Susan, and Uncle David all came to help celebrate. The theme was "Hello Kitty", inspired by the adorable outfit my Aunt (Susan) got Lexi for Christmas (you'll see it in the photos below as she wore it for her "Happy"). Instead of a cake, we opted for a big cookie this year and it was a hit by all. Lexi got a lot of gifts and loved each and every one. It was a wonderful day, celebrating this precious life God has blessed us with! Here are some clips of the day...


















What a fun, fun day!!!
