Two Years Ago Today...

two years ago today i had a doctors appointment where i thought we'd spend a lot of time talking about my upcoming induction. instead the doctor told me i had dilated more and she was almost certain i would have the baby before then... that very day maybe. i thought she was high...

two years ago today i almost barfed when i stepped on the scale at the doctor's office and saw that i weighed 202 pounds. ugh!

two years ago today i realized i really was in labor and was home alone with a toddler completely unsure where my husband or sister in law were.

two years ago today i went to the hospital at 6:30 pm. you were born at 9:13 pm. (mommy will be forever grateful for that buddy.)

two years ago today i became the mommy to the world's most awesome little boy. and you just keep getting better all the time!

5 days old and sucking your thumb!
you stopped doing that 2 weeks later...

my one year old little sweetie and his doting big sis.
not sure anyone loves you more... except me, obviously! ;)

my big 2 year old little man...
checking out the new big boy bed and posing extra cute!

you have grown so much and learned so much these past two years. you are a sweet as candy but have an ornery streak a mile wide. you just learned the words "taco" and "yellow" and you talk more and more every day... is your sister finally being quiet long enough for you to get a word in?? (ha ha!) you are a little daredevil and will climb up and jump off just about anything. you love to help mommy in the kitchen and make "nommy" foods. you LOVE to eat "nommy" food too! you've just found out about the beatles and are VERY fond of their music- you love to sing "she loves you", "hello, goodbye", and "yellow submarine"! you are at this VERY awesome age where every day brings a new discovery and i love watching you find your way in this world we live in.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SPROUT!!!!
mommy loves you!
