Jaida Mikelle Turns two!

 Can you believe that this sweet little girl turned two? I can't! She makes my life so happy and I love every minute with her. She woke up extra happy on her special day. The "neighborhood grandma's" brought over gifts that morning and she was thrilled and very spoiled! (We have such wonderful neighbors that have adopted my kids as grandkids.) That morning she chose her usual breakfast of toast and orange juice. She loves to sit on the couch and eat her breakfast and watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, I know this is a bad habit, but it is very cute!
 For lunch her and Brock had a "picnic" lunch out on their new table ( one of my neighbors was getting rid of it and so we scored it for free, they were so excited) They of course had to have "people kind" (the character kind) of Kraft mac n cheese.
 We are very lucky to have one set of grandparents that live close so we try to take advantage of being with them as much as we can, especially since we know we won't have them around for much longer.  So for dinner we arranged a little pizza party at their house. yum! Jaida got spoiled with presents: dress-up clothes and shoes, new clothes, purse shoes, books... etc.
 One tradition I have is making my kids birthday cakes. I am starting to think I might need to enroll into some cake decorating classes. This one was not one of my favorite. She loves the princess Cinderella. She loved the cake!
 After our party we headed over to her other favorite place/things to do the carousel at the mall. She had a great time riding on the horse! She kept saying Weeee-weee.
 We decided that we needed some pics with our precious baby girl. She really does lover her daddy so much and has the key to his heart. He melts when she call his name. It is quite possibly the best to see how much Trent loves this girl.
 This is my princess, my world and what I live for.
 Then Brock and pierce wanted to take family pictures.. so here is the one Brock took.
And here is the one Pierce took.
It was a day full of everything Jaida! We loved every minute of it.
Reasons why I love Jaida:
1. She brings a smile to every ones face.
2. She makes me want to be better.
3. She is funny and has a cute little laugh.
4. She is sweet and so girly.
5. She loves her brothers so much and loves to wrestle with them.
6. She is brave.
7. She has the STINKIEST feet ever.
8. Her hair is amazing, really could it get any better than that?
9. She loves to be outside and explore.
10. Because she has made the last two years WORTH all the hard work!

I love you my sweet Lovey love. Happy 2nd Birthday!

This girl loves....

 Jaida Loves...
To wrap up her little "baby" (it is actually a pink stuffed teddy bear that my mom got her when she was in the hospital) and cuddle it while watching Micky Mouse Clubhouse. She loves that show. She knows her dad is a sucker for her too. He will walk in the door from work and she will take the remote to him and say," Daddy.. Mitty Mouse please, wanna watch a show?" He almost NEVER turns her down.
 The other thing she loves is her Gracie. She will sit and talk to her through the sliding glass door and hug and kiss on her all day.
 Gracie loves her to because she knows that Jaida will sneak her food. Plus she loves any attention!
 One day Gracie started to try and eat one of Jaida's cookies out of Jaida's hand and I yelled at Gracie. Jaida got big crocodile tears in her eyes and cried so hard for her Gracie and said "no mama, my Gracie!"
Trent got upset with Gracie the other day for getting off her pillow and gave Gracie a spank and Jaida cried so hard and ran and hugged Gracie. She was so upset. It is really cute to see how excited Jaida gets everyday to see her dog.
