Our sweet little princess turned 2 on December 31 (New Year's Eve). I can't believe it was only 2 years ago that after a long (21 hours long) labor Taelor joined the world. It only feels like it was yesterday that we were bringing her home, little did we know that day would change our lives forever. When Taelor was only a few days old, she was already so full of personality and for most of you who know her she definitely has a personality of her own. She is a true leader and for a little 2 year old she has an opinion about anything and everything (even the way you look at her).
Taelor, you are an amazing little girl who we love so much. You have brought so much joy into our lives and seeing you this year as a Big Sister has even brought more joy to our lives. You have changed into a sweet, adorable "little girl", who talks up a storm, who bosses your brother around, who gives us hugs and kisses only on your terms, who lights up a room when you enter, who makes me laugh, smile and cry all in one day, who tells me you luv me, and best of all who makes me so proud of being a mommy!
You love to draw, color, clean (you get that from your daddy), you insist on putting on your own clothes on even though sometimes you get so frustrated when both of your legs get stuck in one pant leg. You are my little helper around the house, you are always keeping tabs on your brother and you definitely let me know when he is doing something he is not supposed to be doing (NO, NO Ethan you say), I think sometimes you think he is just one of you baby dolls! You love shoes and hats, you insist on wearing hats just about everyday and even sometimes you insist on sleeping with them on (I have to pick my battles and this is one I will let you win). Princess Cinderella is your favorite right now and you love to sing twinkle twinkle (you say "up above, sky, tinkle, tinkle star") it makes us smile every night we sing it to you. You are very headstrong and stubborn at times (ok, a lot of the times) but you are like a sponge these days. You love Oswald and Little Bear and your favorite book at the moment is Caillou which you insist on reading every night! You made my hear melt the other night, I told you I love you and you replied with "aw your cute mommy, you are pretty mommy" and it really brought a tear to my eye knowing that even though you may not understand all you say, just the thought that you said it made me so happy.
It has been a wonderful year with lots of ups and downs with you, a lot of learning curves, challenges, stumbles and falls but through it all you are my world. I love you to pieces and I look forward to this next year in your life.
Happy 2nd Birthday Taelor!
