Guess who's 2?

I can hardly believe my little girl is 2!  It just seems crazy.  Everyone tells me to enjoy it when they're little because they grow up so fast and I'm beginning to realize just how true that is.  It's amazing how much she has grown and changed.  She surprises every day with how smart she is and she's quite funny too!  These days Alexa's favorite things are:  doing puzzles, listening and dancing to music, talking and learning new words, going shopping, cooking with Mommy, reading books, learning new things (colors, counting, words), giving hugs and kisses, Elmo, story time at the library, spending time with her grandparents, helping with Parker, going to the park and anything outside.  Alexa also started gymnastics lessons this weekend which I think will be lots of fun!  She is such a good girl and I am so blessed to have her as my daughter!   

This year we had a very small birthday party with the grandparents and uncle John.  We are still trying to limit visitors to help Parker stay healthy so maybe next year we'll have big bash again.  We had Alexa's favorite:  pizza, grapes, and Elmo cake.  Could it get any better?  

Just because she's 2 doesn't mean she needs to use silverware you know...

 Wouldn't you want a pink vacuum for your 2nd birthday? 

 Even Parker got in on the festivities!
