My Big Girl

Happy 2nd Birthday to my Princess!

A baby will make love stronger,

days shorter,

nights longer,

bankroll smaller,

home happier,

clothes shabbier,

the past forgotten,

and the future worth living for.

I can't believe Johanna is two years old. Time sure has gone by fast! I cannot imagine life with out my sweet, beautiful baby, (stubborness, tantrums and all :) ). She makes us laugh everyday and she had made our life brighter and more meaningful than I could ever imagine.

Just for fun

Helping Mommy cook!

.

Johanna had a blast helping me slice mushrooms the other day...I use an egg slicer so it was safe for her. She thought it was the greatest thing ever!

.

I love my cousin Sophia!

.
Johanna spend the afternoon at cousin Sophia's house a couple of weekends ago. They had so much fun together and they get a long so well!

At the Zoo

We took Johanna to the Zoo on Sunday! She had a blast, her favorites by far were the lions and the carousel! She was so exhausted by the time we left that she fell asleep in the car on the way home and then slept for another two hours once we got there!

Watching the sea lion show
.

Looking at turtles, she wanted to get in the water with them!

.

Johanna was amazed by the lions even though they were napping the whole time.

.

Giraffes and Zebras. Two more favorites.

Smiling for the camera while having a snack break!

We LOVE the Carousel!
