Your Second Year

January 2008: Painting on your new art easal that Grandma got you for your Birthday. An activity you loved until Mommy put it away after your decided to color the carpet with markers. I guess it's probably time for me to give you another chance and bring it out of hiding...

February 2008: Running up and down the lifeguard tower while the grown-ups watch the sunset
March 2008: Playing at Veterans Park.April 2008: Napping on the couch with Daddy, which doesn't happen very often.
May 2008: Swinging in the Henning's backyard and having a wonderful time with your friend Ava.June 2008: I wonder what you are thinking in this picture?
July 2008: Riding your big wheel. One of your favorite weekend activities (besides My Gym of course!)
August 2008: Cooking in your kitchen (wearing one of your favorite outfits).September 2008: Relaxing in Maui.October 2008: Trying to get that perfect Christmas Card photo...November (Thanksgiving) 2008: Giving your Mama face hugs and kisses
December 2008: Playing with your new board game, and looking so much older...January 2009: And this picture says it all. Outside in the sun, riding your bike(s) with your hair all crazy and in your face, wearing a fancy pink dress with your favorite beaded necklace and pink flip flops on your feet.

Hard to believe in 90 minutes you will have been born three years ago. Hard to believe how much you've grown and changed this past year. Although it's hard for us to let go of your "two's" we look forward to all your adventures this next year will bring. We love you so very much. Happy Birthday Kels!

Wow you have grown a lot this year! Still have those same pretty blue eyes, crazy curly hair & spunky spirit. I can't wait to watch you grow over the next year. Love the pics Katie. Especially the big wheel one.

So sorry we missed the party. Jake's fever spiked and any time Adam moved any faster than a walk, let the coughing fit begin. Looking forward to seeing you next weekend, and Happy birthday Kelsea!!!!
