I can’t believe my baby is about to be two years old tomorrow! It’s crazy how time flies! I can recall feverishly planning her first year birthday party around this time last year. In case you haven’t seen it, here’s the video and recap of her 1st year bash.
This time around my hubby and I would like to keep things a bit more kid friendly. We’re planning a celebration for Princess and her friends to enjoy. I’ll be sharing pics, and tips on how we (I) planned the event. For us, it’s all about keeping it simple and fun. I’m also working on another video. Stay tuned for that too!

My little girl is growing up, and this moment is bitter sweet. Sometimes I wish she’d stay this way forever. How do you feel about your kiddos getting older?

It is a little sad. With my oldest girl starting kindergarten it’s really hitting home. People say the time will fly during these years. So the only way I know to help slow time down a little is to take lots of pictures, and videos. I also try to disconnect as much as possible from my phone, iPad and PC when I’m at home and just sit and enjoy them. Being a working Mom….I find it wonderful to be able to go to work and have a career but it sure is a long day being away from them.
Happy Birthday, StacyAnn! Yes, don’t blink, the time flies by. Appreciate every minute. ( and don’t believe the myth about “the terrible twos.” not necessarily true. I look at my 3 boys ( ages 26, 23 and 20) and continually wonder how this happened. I don’t feel older ( well … … Not MUCH older). Enjoy your adorable daughter.

Happy Birthday to your princess!!! We need to start planning our son’s third birthday party. I can’t believe it. He’s such a big boy and I’m reminded of that every time I talk to him. He’s always surprising me with how much he knows. Not my baby anymore. Bittersweet, indeed.
You bring up such an important point about disconnecting from everything and focusing on spending time with the kids. It’s so important to take time to enjoy them.
I will! I appreciate the good, the bad, and everything else.
Happy early birthday to your little boy! He’s so adorable! Do you have a theme in mind?
It’s bittersweet, for sure. I remember when my oldest was this age. She’ll be 20 in October! 🙂
Your little girl is a DOLL! I love her outfit and she looks adorable in that color! I miss Serenity at that age very much – but I love the how amazing it is to see her enjoy new experiences and watch her comprehension and excitement grow each year that passes by. I think it’ll be harder when she hits her teen years and know that my baby is no longer a “baby” anymore!
OMG! I had no idea. I know have tons of pics!
Thanks! Thinking of Princess as a teenager freaks me out. But, I know the day will come. She’s already a chatterbox. You little one is a cutie!
