Ahh. I can't believe it... two years has gone by since our sweet daughter has come into the world. I now see how everyone feels when they say enjoy every second cause it flies by soon she will be graduating from highschool. I already feel like the last two years have flown by. I am watching this sweet girl grow up in front of my eyes, watching her change and grow into such a beautiful young girl. It is such a blessing to watch her grow. I constantly am pointed back to my heavenly Father thinking if I love this sweet girl this much how much more He loves me? how amazing that thought is.
Well on this second birthday I can't help but think ahead to what may be going on while allie is what many call this dreaded 2. :) I am continually praying that through this age I can still take a breath and be thankful for this healthy little girl that God has blessed my family with. Although there are going to be MANY changes for allie this year. Rob and I always sit back and think well if this year doesn't effect allie nothing will :) In this year these are the changes that will occur; moving to a big girl bed, gaining a new sibling, moving out of the home she has always known and people that she has always known, living in transit for about 5 months, making the trek across the ocean, moving to a new home in Belgium, being in a new culture with a new language, and maybe leaving atleast one dog behind in the states (which she is crazy attached to!) and I am sure much more. Those things are just a couple things going on in our next year. I am trying so hard to give it all up to the Lord knowing that He is already in all of those things and will guide and give wisdom. I just pray that allie is still as flexible as she has always been! So prayers are appreciated as we enter this new year.
Allies 1st birthday we celebrated at the Beckenhauer side and now Allies 2nd birthday we will be celebrating at my parents house. Allie is very excited for her birthday this year. She has been talking about having a Clown Cake for her birthday for over a month. So I will be attempting to make a clown cake and just praying it doesn't turn into some creapy clown! :) It may be a bit interesting! So just a couple family and friends are coming over to celebrate. Only about 5 kids and a couple adults so it should be perfect. My mom and I are working on making some fun decorations. I'm excited to watch her experience a birthday. Rob flies in on friday to join us cause we aren't doing her party till sunday. What fun.
So thats whats going on in this family. Constantly learning new things, getting a much bigger belly (7 months!) , and excited for the holidays with the family!!!
