Saylor Turns TWO!

I was pretty sad yesterday morning absorbing the fact that my girls are 2 and 3 now.  They are no longer babies.  They really do grow up before your eyes.  My sweet little Saylor turned 2 yesterday. 

I remember the day she was born like it was yesterday.  What a fun day her birth day was!  It snowed the day after she was born, making the hospital room so cozy and glowing.  At 6 pounds and 7 ounces, she was so tiny.  The first few weeks she would only sleep on my chest at night.  I knew to do whatever it took to get some sleep.  Now, those memories are so precious to me.  I was reminded of them last night when Saylor woke up around midnight crying.  I went upstairs and I let her "rock a minute", cherishing her snuggled up to my chest just as she was two years earlier.   Awwww, now I've gone and gotten myself all weepy here at my desk.  I am just overwhelmed with love for these fast growing girls.  I would include a photo her of newborn Saylor but I still haven't gotten my data recovered from our hard drive crash. 

Here are some party shots from last night!  We had a couple of Saylor's friends and parents over and Luckily for Harper, most of them have older siblings who are her friends as well!  I lost my camera for most of the party (8 kids under the age of 4 is chaos).  So, I'm missing many photos I wish I had, like one with me and Ryan and Saylor!  I'll be sure to get one of us tonight.


That's all for now!  The girls and I are headed upstairs to watch the Disney Princesses Sing-A-Long DVD that Ryan & I got her.  :-)

(As I was just finishing this blog, I heard Saylor sitting behind me sucking on something saying "mmmmm...ice cream".  I turned around and there she was, sitting on the floor, sucking what was left of the cake and icing off of the minnie mouse that was on her birthday cake.)
