Lizzie is 2!

I'm really slacking with this blog lately since having Flynn, but I have to write about my baby girl turning 2 years old! Lizzie has brought us so much joy these past 2 years. She's the one who made me a mother and made Tyler a father which is a precious gift. She has developed quite a personality. Everyone who meets her says she is the funniest little girl. She is a social butterfly. She loves playing with other kids and gets excited when people come over or when we go visit friends and family. She is also strong willed; she knows what she wants and gets very upset if she doesn't get it. Lizzie is so smart. Her vocabulary is growing every day, she knows her ABC's, counts to 10, and knows quite a few animals by name and sound. That's another thing, she LOVES animals. Her favorite movies are Frozen and any of the Winnie-the-Pooh ones. It's so fun to watch Lizzie grow, even though it's happening too fast. We love our beautiful little girl!

We did our best to give Lizzie the best day. She played with her new kitchen toys all morning and had pancakes for breakfast. We took a trip to the zoo in the afternoon since it's one of her favorite places. After the zoo, it was party time! We threw Lizzie a Frozen themed birthday party. I got some fun food ideas from Pinterest and it was just too easy to find decorations; Frozen is everywhere! We ate good food, opened presents, and ate cake. My favorite part of the day was watching Lizzie's face light up when we all sang happy birthday to her. She had so much fun. It was a great day.
