Happy Birthday, Kayli!

Today is our little girl's second birthday. It is amazing to watch her grow. I know I have said it before but she has changed so much in a year. Besides the fact that her hair is getting longer and she is getting a little taller, she is learning new words everyday and how to do things to help us around the house. She loves when the mail comes because she always expects something, so I give the junk mail and she is as happy as can be to tear it up (I wish I could get away with her tearing up bills). She also has an order for everything. She is always looking for the person who is not there or the toy or table utensil she thinks she needs...it is always fun to watch her eat chips and salsa with a spoon and then use her fingers to eat macaroni and cheese with her fingers. We are so excited about her being a big sister. She loves to "kiss the baby" and is always like to make sure that baby has a place to sit...at least she doesn't have to worry about that for another 5 or 6 weeks. She seems to be okay with having other children in the house because Michelle takes care of one to three everyday plus Kayli, but they go home with their mommies. So we will see how she adjusts to a new little person in the house.

Please keep praying for baby Allyce. She is coming to us soon and she will be here before we know it. This is another exciting and scary time for us but we know we can handle the challenge.
