Mallory is 2

When I was pregnant, people would tell me to treasure every minute because the time just flies by. The response was always "yeah, I will." Well, then the baby comes and in the blink of an eye, they are no longer a baby. I can still remember being pregnant with Mallory, having her and holding this tiny little person. Well, now I'm telling the ones that are pregnant to treasure those moments because they fly by! I can't believe that my little girl is two. She is no longer a baby, but a little independent person, who speaks her mind on a regular basis and would rather do it herself than have one of us help her! I have enjoyed everyday with her and I look forward to all the rest of the days with her, but I just hope the rest don't go as fast as the first. (Wishful thinking, I know!)

She understands presents, but when she opened one that she wanted to play with, the rest just kind of went to the side. She also blew out her candle this year. I was impressed by that considering we never really practiced that. It was a great day! Cherries were the theme and red was the main color. Here are a few of the memories made that day:
