I Turned Two! And Elmo was there…

Watch as my family and friends sing happy birthday to me, and see my Elmo birthday cake!

My 2nd Christmas!

My second Christmas has now come and gone, and what a blast it was.  This was the first Christmas I got to spend with my new baby brother, Brody.  Thanks to Grandma Elledge, Brody and I had the cutest Christmas outfits!  On Christmas Eve, we went to First Family Church and sang lots of Christmas songs.  After that, we went home and ate some lasagna that mommy made.  Then, it was presents time!  I scored big time!  I got a baby doll with a changing table just like Brody’s and a stroller, too.  I also got an Elmo Live!  He is so funny and fun to play with.  I even got two Elmo videos.  One of them is teaching me it’s okay to potty in the big girl potty so I can get out of these diapers.  I got lots of pretty clothes, too.  One of my favorite toys is a vacuum cleaner, so I can help my mommy clean!  Oh, and Bubba got me some huge legos which I love having mommy and daddy set up so I can knock them down.  I got so many presents it’s hard for me to remember all of them.

Before I went to night night, I left some cookies and milk on the counter for Santa.  When I woke up on Christmas Day, the cookies and milk were gone, and under the tree was more presents for me!  I got a really cool Elmo table and chairs and a huge doll house!  I love all my presents and thank everyone for giving them to me.  Daddy says he is mad at Santa, though, because now I don’t like to go to sleep… I always want to play with my toys!

Anyway, this was the best Christmas yet!  I can’t wait until Santa comes back next year.  Merry Christmas to everyone!

Love,

What an Awesome Saturday!

Today has been one of my favorite Saturdays! First I got to help mommy get ready for a wedding shower for Holly, one of my favorite baby sitters and friends. Then, I got to take a real shower with mommy. After she took a shower, daddy did and I tried to take one with him, too, but I was already dressed so he didn’t think that was such a swell idea. Afterwards, mommy let me hang out with everyone who came to the shower and I got to help Holly open her presents! Next came a nice nap after daddy got home and gave me a big, pink teddy bear. It is so soft! He told me after my nap he had a big surprise for me. And he sure did! When I woke up and came downstairs, I saw my beautiful pink car! Mommy and daddy helped me drive it around the house, then we went outside and drove in the driveway. Daddy took some movies and pictures, so I am sure you’ll see them soon! Thankfully he didn’t take any pictures or movies of me when I threw my fit when I had to come in and leave my car in the garage. Oh well, so far this has been a really fun Saturday!

My First Haircut!

Braelyn gets her first haircut

Today, I got my first haircut! I know you thought I would never have enough hair on my head to get it cut, but our friend Stephanie Murphy kept saying I was getting a mullet, so mommy and daddy took me to Shear Madness to get my very first haircut. They didn’t get to cut too much off, but the really nice lady cleaned me up nice and even put a braid in my hair! Daddy thinks I look really cute, but he tells me that all the time. While getting my haircut I got to sit in a really neat car and even watch tv, but I must admit, I was a little curious as to what was going on… I wasn’t real sure I was having a good time. But, I survived!

Spring Time!

I am so happy it’s spring time! The other day, I went outside with my mommy, daddy, Hoover and Bubba and walked in the grass with bare feet. That felt so weird. Then Bubba pushed me in my swing which was really fun. I hope the weather keeps getting nicer, because I love to go outside and get mad when mommy and daddy don’t let me. The other day it snowed a bunch and I couldn’t play outside. But maybe this weekend Bubba can push me again and let me go down the slide, too!
