Two-Years Old!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY sweet baby girl!!!

Wow, time has just been flying! It feels like we just got done planning her 1st birthday party!

Here are Addy's wellness stats from her two-year appointment today:

1. Weight 27 lbs 4 oz (55-60th percentile)

2. Height 32.5 inches (25th percentile)

3. Head Circumference 50 (87th percentile = that brain continues to dominate! ;)

We had an AMAZING Yo Gabba Gabba-themed birthday party this weekend! Here are some pics:


And we also took the day off from work and daycare today, so that we could spend her actual birthday together as a family. We decided to take her for her first trip to Zoo Atlanta. Here are some pics from today:

Together, we possess the courage to face whatever life throws our way and the will to survive it all. We've even survived the fears and anxiety of a subsequent pregnancy and have happily welcomed our baby girl Faith to the family. “The happiest people don't have the best of everything. They just make the best of everything they have.”

Faith

Author Unknown

Faith isn't anything you can see;
It isn't anything you can touch.
But you can feel it in your heart.

Faith is what keeps you trying
When others would have given up.
It keeps you believing in
The goodness of others
And helps you find it.

Faith is trusting in a power
Greater than yourself
And knowing that whatever happens,
This power will carry you through anything.
It is believing in yourself
And having courage
To stand up for what you believe in.

Faith is Peace in the midst of a storm,
Determination in the midst of adversity,
And safety in the midst of trouble.
For nothing can touch a soul
That is protected by faith.

A Different Child

by Pandora MacMillian

People notice
There's a special glow around you.

You grow
Surrounded by love,
Never doubting you are wanted;
Only look at the pride and joy
In your mother and father's eyes.

And if sometimes
Between the smiles
There's a trace of tears,
One day
You'll understand.

You'll understand
There was once another child
A different child
Who was in their hopes and dreams.

That child will never outgrow the baby clothes
That child will never keep them up at night
In fact, that child will never be any trouble at all.

Except sometimes, in a silent moment,
When mother and father miss so much
That different child.

May hope and love wrap you warmly
And may you learn the lesson forever
How infinitely precious
How infinitely fragile
Is this life on earth.

One day, as a young man or woman
You may see another mother's tears
Another father's silent grief
Then you, and you alone
Will understand
And offer the greatest comfort.

When all hope seems lost,
You will tell them
With great compassion,
"I know how you feel.
I'm only here
Because my mother tried again."
