Lanie Weekly: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse!!!

Holy cow Lanie is two years old! This cute ball of sunshine is the light of Mark and I's life. It's crazy how such a small human can bring so many emotions all at one time. In any given day I can go from frustrated to laughing at something she has done in 20 seconds. So many big changes have occurred in the past couple months for this big girl. She is 98% potty trained (pure torture ), moved to a big girl bed, is eating at the big kids table at daycare, and moving from the pac n play room during nap time to the cot room this week. Along with all her big girl rewards and new adventures she is getting to go experience there is also challenges that we are learning how to navigate as parents. Most of the time I feel like we are complete failures and then other days I feel like we did a pretty good job, but I guess that is what being first time parents to a toddler is all about. Who knew sitting during a meal was going to become a luxury, I now understand why my friends with toddlers very rarely go out to eat. I feel like we are moving away from baby into full blown toddler and we better buckle up because I think Mark and I are in for a ride. Pretty soon we will have to take on the challenge of newborn and toddler. Even though everyday gets a tad more uncomfortable I think I am needing the few more months to mentally prepare for this adventure!!! On to Lanie's birthday party pictures. We had a small family party this year and it was fantastic. Everyone had a hot diggity dog time and Lanie is one lucky girl to have so many people love her so much : )
