Rhy turns 2!

Here are some quick photos from our day! My little girl is 2 ... I can hardly believe it!




Early in the day, I gave her the first present ... a tutu, which she loved. She yelled out "TUTU!!" as she opened it, and then proceeded to wear it. All. Day.


Opening presents!


A princess dress from mom and dad! (For dress-up fun and for Halloween). When she opened this, she gave a quiet sigh and then muttered a garbled "How gor-jus!" (gorgeous). !!! I didn't know she even knew that word, but she kept repeating this phrase over and over all night, whenever she saw the dress.


We also got her dress-up shoes, which she HAD to wear with the dress. She clopped around in them all evening.


Our baby girl.


Playing with the dollhouse that Grandma and Papa Staude got for her, WHILST wearing the princess dress.



Cake was a mistake, because we waited too long. She was sooooo sad to have to take the dress off that no amount of red velvet cake could make the pain go away. :) She did, however, blow out her own candles.

Oh no! Who knew that cake should have come before the princess dress? She does look gorgeous in her pink princess dress, though!

They are little sponges and you just don't know what they are learning and what circumstance will bring out that new word. I loved listening to my kids learn to talk, when every day brought out a new word that you didn't know they knew.

In the black-and-white photo, she looks so big, and so not like a baby anymore! It happens so fast, doesn't it?
