Pippi turns 2!

On December 5th my sweet little Piper turned 2. My how the time flies.
Here she is helping mommy make her birthday cupcakes...
I know this picture looks posed - but I am just really that cheesey in real life...
My dear sweet friend, Rachel, gave Pip this outfit to wear for her birthday. Isn't it just precious! When Pip looked in the mirror after I got her dressed she was amazed. I think she was in love with her reflection! She was even giving herself kisses!The cupcakes - on their stand - with an old dress up tutu around the bottom...

Pip loves a photo shoot...
She kept turning around and hugging the wall - weird...
Hands on hips - this is one of her toddlers and tiaras moves...

Getting birthday wishes from Grandma on the phone...
We love this little Pip - she lights up our lives!!
Blowing out her candles - I love the face on her best little buddy, Jude...

YUM-O!!
I don't know if it's that I am getting older (well, I am definitely getting older) or that she is the baby of such a large family but there is just something so special about this little girl. Every time I look at her I just think "Man, I love her SO much!" And I'm not the only one. The whole family is pretty enamoured with her. She is almost always the center of attention.
She still cuddles in bed with me every morning and lets me kiss her from head to toe every night. She says "Sank you Mommy" at ever meal when I give her her plate. When any of us tell her we love her she replies in this super cute high pitched voice "I luz you too Buba (or fill in the blank)!" No matter how many times the kids keep saying they love her she will still reply back with as much enthusiasm as the first time. When I tell her it is time to get out of the bath she always says "No ma'am please." so I sit with her until she's pruny. She loves to dance. She thinks she can run with the big kids - no matter what they are doing. She is starting to lose her baby talk and pronouncing words correctly (this kinda hurts my heart but I'm trying to not stop it - don't want a 4 year old who still says "Can I have a glass of milp?").
Happy Birthday Sweet Pip - I love you with all my heart!
