Eleanor Claire turns 2.

Holy COW. How is this even possible?! Our bug turned TWO.
Two whole years of love and tears and fun and joy and frustration and anxiety. Two years of a beautiful soul who we feel like we've known our whole lives. She is the most special, wonderful thing that has ever happened to us - she is smart and funny and silly and has a smile that lights up a room. She makes friends everywhere she goes and has a heart of gold. She talks a million miles an hour and is the most polite newly minted 2 year old I've ever met. She is one of a kind, and most importantly, she's OURS.
We love you, sweet baby girl and can't wait to watch your future unfold.

Unfortunately this year, Ellie was so sick on her birthday. We had to cancel her party and reschedule, but we made the most of it with presents and lots of snuggles. High unexplained fevers are the WORST. She got a new American Girl Bitty baby, plus a cradle (thank you, Drew, Kasie and Gus!) and a highchair. Needless to say that even through the lack of energy, I could tell she was so excited about her new friend she quickly named "Ploop". Yep, Ploop. Oh, you silly girl.
And even though we canceled her party, we still blew up the bouncy house we bought so she could test it out - lasted about 10 minutes before a sick girl meltdown, but it was fun and now she's SO excited to have her friends over to play with it!
