Molly is Two!
Of course she has been 2 over a month and I am just now writing this (as well as thank you notes) but better late than never! Molly- you are such a precious little nugget. Your daddy and I love you so so much! We cannot imagine life without you.
You are so fun right now- talking up a storm. You love your baby dolls and will play with them for hours.
Some of our favorite times with you are in the middle of the night! When you were in your crib, a few nights a week you would cry until we came into your room and would immediately change your tone and say, "where's my paci? Where's my blankie? Oh, there it is." you knew we were taking you to our room. It made us laugh every time how you could turn it off and on so quickly. You are probably the most restless sleeper I know! All over the place.
We recently moved you to Emery Kate's room and you love it. Most nights EK is asleep right away (b/c she isn't napping anymore) and you get up multiple times. One night I came out of the bathroom and found you playing "monkey" on my phone in blake's closet at about 10 pm. Another night you fell asleep outside our door for a few hours and I only realized it b/c I heard you coughing in the middle of the night. You are a mess!
You love us so well. When we ask for a kiss, you give it and then say "and a hug"- oh how this melts us. You have been through a lot these past few months- two surgeries. One was an endoscopy/colonoscopy to try and figure out your anemia, falling on the growth charts, etc. You were such a trooper doing a 24 hour cleanout the day before! I was amazed at you! The other surgery was to fix your precious webbed fingers. Oh how i loved it but know that you probably wouldn't in a few years. You tolerated both so well.
You and Emery Kate are really playing well together now. You will go in the room together and play by yourselves for the longest time which is so precious to see (and hear). Right now y'all love to do check ups on one another and play with your dolls. I love that you girls want to be together. It blesses this mom!
You are such a good eater right now. You love peanut butter sandwiches and will eat them for any meal. At night, when I ask you what you are thankful for, you usually say animals or KiKi (aunt christy). You love all your cousins and get so excited to see them (especially campbell and hallie)! You also want to pray at every meal, although we never know what you are saying.
You think that you have a baby in your belly like me. So cute. You even tell me that he is kicking sometimes. You tell me all the time that you are a big sister and that Burson is coming in March.
I love your cheesy smile so much when I try and get a picture of you.
Some of your favorite things right now are your blankie, your pacifiers, your doll Hallie, Diego, Chick fila, peanut butter, Chipotle, feeding ducks, playing outside, your sister, your cousins, dancing, family worship, and many others!
I love you so very much Molly! Your dad and I are so blessed to have you in our life!
