How did I get a 2 year old!!

My baby is two! How did this happen? Everyone always told me to treasure "those moments" because they go by way to fast, and to be honest I use to just roll my eyes at them because I got so sick of hearing it! However, I am now one of "those" people! I wish I could go back in time and re-live some of the moments I took for granted with Maggie because I felt like time was just, well,  taking it's time!

Anyways.....enough of my sob story!

This girl was the center of attention at her birthday party and she soaked up every minute of it! Seriously this little one is such a diva and it always sometimes drives her Mom and Dad crazy, but at the same time it makes her who she is and we love it! We enjoyed cake, friends and, presents! Thanks so much everyone for coming! It meant so much to us to know that Maggie is so loved!

Present time!

I don't think it matters where we are, or what we are doing, this girl ALWAYS manages to find some kind of mud or dirt to play in! Seriously she is just like her daddy!



I just adore this photo! Maggie loves her Grandma Jane!

A couple of weeks later Ryan's sister came down from Boise for a visit and we had a little photo shoot for Maggie and her cousin Tyson (who is only 5 weeks younger than her). Ryan's mom's side of the family has this wonderful tradition called the Two Year Old outfits! I absolutely love this tradition! I think it is so great! Every child and grandchild so far on the Gunnell side has had a photo in the two year old dress or shirt! I was really concerned putting Maggie in it because of how active she is! I could just see it turning to dust as soon as she decided to run! The dress is over 55 years old!

This is the only picture I could get of this little girl holding still!



It took a 4 man crew plus some fruit snacks and gold fish to get these two to hold still long enough to snap a few pictures! I just love watching them together! Where ever we go people always ask if they are twins!

Even though these two were such wiggle worms, we still had fun!
