You Know Your Baby Is Growing Up, When...

..She runs as fast as her big brother.

..She can speak is full sentences.

..She will be two in less that three months.

..Her hair is long enough for French Braids and Pony Tales.

..She can start a conversation with you.

..She tells You which nickname she wants to be called.

..She'd rather be with your mother than you.

..She can name her stuffed animals, all by herself.

..If you say O-H,

she'll reply with I-O

but only when she wants to.

..She can tell you if she wants her window open or closed in the car.

..You make her crib into a toddler bed and she is so busy getting

in and out that she won't even go downstairs to say good-night to daddy.

..She can ask for a pen or pencil and you can understand her.

..She tries to peddle her brother's bike.

..If she falls out of her bed, she just goes back to sleep on the floor.

Without skipping a beat or even crying.

..She's had her first tatoo!

..The first thing she says when she gets out of bed is her brother's name

with a question mark at the end.

..She decides which parents she wants to put her to bed, or hold her

just by saying their name.

..She will tell you to close your eyes when it is time to pray.

And many other things. You add your own. All I know is that this is going way too fast for me. I feel like I've missed a year because it went so fast. At least one thing hasn't changed from when she was a baby until now at just over 21 months old, she can still melt any person's heart who meets her, just by looking at them. She just has that way about her. It makes me wonder what she will do when she grows up, all the way. All I can say is, She is amazing. I can go on and on about Jackson too. He is four already. Maybe I'll do that list on another day.

God Bless,
