We will be having a small party at our house and I am planning to make it as special as I can for Miss Ava. I bought a few Minnie Mouse decorations because she is so obsessed with all the characters in the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse.

I figured it would surprise her when she woke up from her nap!!

I don’t want to get all mushy mushy with you guys, so I’ll make this short and sweet. Having a child has kinda turned me into that sentimental women that cries a little easier then she did before, but it’s a good thing.  I never knew how much love I had to give until having Ava. These are happy tears but, Seriously can we slow down time just a little???!!

Over the last few months Ava has shown me how smart she truly is: she is super independent like her mama, she laughs at everything and makes us laugh with her, she has secret talents like jumping on the bosu ball (she’s only 2 that’s incredible), she is so gentle and sweet when she plays with Cooper, she is caring when she plays with other kids, she’s tough and persistent like her daddy, and her determination & passion for life is going to help her achieve all of her life goals.

I’m not shocked she’s already 2, she’s a big girl and she is eager to learn more and more as each day passes. She keeps me on my toes more then I thought I ever needed to be and has challenged me to be the best person I possibly can.

Not a day goes by that I don’t hug and want to squeeze her tight and I hope she lets me do that forever.

HAPPY 2nd BIRTHDAY AVA! Mommy, Daddy & Cooper love you so much!!!!
