Happy Birthday Alyssa



Dear Alyssa,
Tomorrow you turn 2! I cannot believe how fast the time has gone. It seems like only yesterday I was waiting for your arrival. You are one of the best things that ever happened to Daddy and I.
You are growing up so fast. You now weigh 24 lbs and are 34 inches tall. You talk non stop. Sometimes we can understand you and other times we can't.
You LOVE trains, Yo Gabba Gabba, dancing and eating. We don't watch a lot of tv in the house but when you get a chance you always ask for "wiggle wiggle wiggle" which is a name of the song on Yo Gabba Gabba. So that is the theme of your second birthday party. I can't wait to see what you think of your cake tomorrow.
You are now also potty trained. You took to it very quickly and have not worn a diaper besides nap or bed time in almost a month.
You are a very happy child and are always smiling. With that said you can also throw some very big tantrums.
You still love swimming and can't wait for Saturday mornings when you get to jump off the side of the pool and swim all over. You also still love to snuggle with your parents before bed at night.
There are so many things to say about you, and I know I can't write them all down with out staying up all night.
You truly are a blessing from God and Daddy and I love you more than you will ever know. Tomorrow you will be surrounded by even more people who love and adore you. They will all come together to laugh and enjoy each others company. And while we will have over 30 people in this house celebrating with you, there are even more that want to be here but can't.
Alyssa you are one lucky little girl to have so many wonderful people in your life. I hope that you grow up knowing how much you are loved.
Big girl this last year has had many ups and downs and I'm sure the year to come will as well, but I can't wait to see you grow. I look forward to see what the coming months and year bring to yours and our lives.
Thank you for being such an awesome girl.
Love,
Mommy
