Our sweet girl is 2!!!!

2 years ago our sweet baby girl was born! She started out sweet and calm, and now she is a crazy, happy, silly, emotional, tantrum throwing two year old! We still can't get enough of her, and even Carter misses her when she is taking a nap. This past year she has changed so much! She is talking up a storm, she wrestles with her brother,(and can hold her own) is slowly becoming a picky eater, wants to do everything that Carter does, loves her daddy, loves to scream when she doesn't get her way, loves her babies and (my favorite) she gives the best kisses and hugs! I love to watch her learn and grow and discover the world around her. Happy Birthday Berklie!!

1 year old, lovin' the cake!

16 months, enjoying some garden treats!

The birthday celebrating begins!

Pretty bracelets from Grandma & Grandpa Bell

The complete outfit! She LOVES princesses. Thanks G'ma & G'pa.

Her favorite card. "Emo" Thanks Great Gram and Pops.

For her birthday we took her to The Aquarium. She loved all the fishies! Most of all, she loved seeing her cousins, Luke & Bentley.

"Ewww, ca ca". Is what she said when she saw this spider.

After seeing all the fun fish with the family, (Rich & Leslie, Luke & Bentley, Andy & Natasha, Jen & Jeremy, Ryan & Kris) we went to Rock Creek Pizza for some yummy lunch and good conversation. Berklie was spoiled by her aunts, uncles and cousins! Thanks so much for coming to celebrate her b'day and for the very cute gifts.

After a much needed nap, we gave Berklie the gifts that we got for her and Grammie and Boppa gifts.

Showing off the shades from Carter.

Her first Cabbage Patch from Grammie Weeze and Boppa and some cute jammies!! Thanks mom and dad.

Tea for two?

And finally, the good part, the CAKE. I attempted to make a strawberry cake...but, it turned out to be an earthquake strawberry cake. It still tasted good and Berk didn't mind.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BABY GIRL!
