Where has the time gone? It seriously seems like yesterday I was planning her first birthday, or better yet having her! My has she grown up in the past year! Can you believe the difference? Don't get me wrong she's the same old Charly, just so big! Fun things we love about Charly right now...
* She's miss personality! I hope her brother is as fun and spunky as she is! It makes everyday super interesting!
* She's a gabber! Some of my favorite things that she says are, "fork and spoon", "perfeck", "lub you", "please thank you welcome", "excuse me", and pretty much she'll repeat most things we say. don't worry she does speak in real sentences, it's just when she says these things its super cute!
* She loves stories, her favorites being... Each Peach Pear Plum, The Goodnight Book, and Bad Dog Marley.
* Favorite food...cereal, pancakes, sauce, berries, peas & carrots, corn
* Loves movies! Pretty much she'll watch anything now! And she talks about all the characters like they are her pals!
* Loves to play tea party and color with mom and dad!
She's just too fun right now, I never want her to grow up, but obviously that's not going to happen!

Party #3
Later in the evening Grandma Lindsay and Stacie came over for another mini party. Boy was Charly spoiled! She got a sit and spin (opening below) and some cute outfits, plus a cash register to go with all her fun stuff from Christmas!
Charly's now two...and yesterday was her first day in the snow. I know, slightly deprived. I debated about even letting her go out because we got all new snow clothes stuff for her for Christmas and we hadn't used it yet, so I almost took it all back. But then I decided that this was something she needed to do before she was three! She had so much fun. Not so much at first, but once we got playing she didn't want to stop. I bet she played for a good three hours outside. First with me, we went sledding down to uncle Cody's house and then started the snowman. Then Corey took the second shift where they or should I say he finished the snowman and started building a fort with her sand bucket. I never would have thought of that, genius! Most of all I think she just liked eating the freshly fallen snow! It ended up being a fabulous morning, I got to feel normal again, and we all got a break from being inside!
