Finlee Turns Two!

My baby turned two this past week. I remember the day she arrived like it was yesterday. I was so happy for Jaelyn to be a big sister. I was so happy for our family to grow. I was so happy to hold my precious girl in my arms and show her off to the world. And I was so happy that I had been blessed with a snuggly, sweet girl who wasn't as independent as her sister.
 I was happy because she needed me, she wanted me, and we loved her. I have always called Finlee my sweet baby and she is still just as sweet as she was the day she was born. Her sweet, precious smile. Her sweet giggles. Her sweet personality. She is just as sweet as can be! I always joke with Matt, now that she has grown a little, that Finlee is our sour patch kid. First she can be sour, then she's real sweet.
Finlee is also my fearless little girl. Though not so independent, she has no fear of anything. I call her my little monkey.
So what's a better way to celebrate than a sweet, monkey party? We started by inviting family and friends in the area to her party. We had a better turnout than I ever could have imagined. We're so blessed to have a little girl who is loved so much! I just wanted to have a small get-together to celebrate the life of our girl and that we did! With food, cake, and decorations, we got the job done!

I still cannot believe my baby is two. I look forward to many more years with my sweet, growing girl. Here's to her sister big turning 4 in just a few weeks!

  1. I am so glad that I could be there. I wish we lived closer so I could be at more things...but I enjoy being with my Eastern Kansas girls when I'm there. Give Jae and Fin a big hug and kiss from Aunt Issa. Love you guys!
