Daisy's Almost Two!

My baby girl has been alive for almost two full years. That is so amazing to me. Since she went from a baby baby to a toddler, I have really been enjoying her. God has blessed Toby and I with the most perfect little angel. She is independent and playful, intelligent and inquisitive. She tests my patience every day, and she helps me try to be a better person. I am so thankful that I gave motherhood a chance, because it has been so rewarding and lovely. Thank you, Daisy Lillian, for giving my life more meaning than I ever thought possible.

February Slideshow

Daisy is a sicky pooh today. Please pray that she gets better soon! She doesn't seem to feel too terribly but she's throwing up and has diarrhea. Poor thing! She's napping right now, and I plan to let her sleep as long as she wants.

We just got back from an overnight trip to see grandma and grandpa in Grants Pass. She loves those two.

Enjoy these pictures from February 2008!

Daisy the Great

No new pics today, but I wanted to give a little update on Daisy. She is doing just great! Her language skills are exploding lately. She can repeat pretty much any word you give her, and she is saying two word phrases pretty often. She can name most of her favorite foods, and she understands when I ask her to do something (such as "Hand Madi a piece of bread," or "Go get a diaper!"). She is still saying please, thank you, and now she's even saying "Sorry, mommy." It's so cute.

And yes, her hair is still red and curly!

Halleluja, Amen!

You will crack up and cry at the same time when you watch this video of Daisy. The first few seconds are kinda' boring...she's camera shy at first. Just keep watching, and you'll see that it will be worth it!

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

We had a wonderful Christmas with my family in Grants Pass. We decided to let Daisy open her gifts on Christmas Eve, and she had such a blast! She tore into the paper like it was second nature. I never realized how fun Christmas with kids can be.
Have a Happy New Year!

Halloween!

Finally, I've posted Daisy's Halloween pics. A good friend and I took the babies to our church's harvest party. We both had them on leashes to keep better track of them amongst all the people! Daisy really enjoyed the petting zoo. She kept running up to the goats saying, "Puppy! Puppy!"
