Alexis is 2!

I cannot believe two years ago our lives changed forever in the best way possible. Our little Alexis Cora Gay was born at 3:18 am on September 27, 2007, she weighed 7 lbs, 1 oz and was 19 inches long. Today however, she is a rambunctious toddler running all over the place as fast as her little legs will carry her. She is so full of personality it is a joy to watch it unfold. We are so fortunate to have her in our lives.

To start the big day Chris and I walked into her room to tell her Happy Birthday and she looked at us like we were crazy and went right back to playing in her crib. Apparently turning two is not a big deal, yet. We had a lovely morning hanging out and getting ready for church. I decorated her cake (first cake I really decorated). We were off to church, she is finally adjusting to church in the afternoon. We then came home and Aunt Nicole and Uncle Scott came over to help celebrate and get ready for everyone else. We blew up balloons, once that was done Alexis' attention was gone for the rest of the evening. She did not care too much about her cake or the presents that arrived but she wanted to show everyone her balloons. It was very cute.

We are lucky to have so many friends and family close by. Alexis' grandparents came over, as well as a few adopted grandparents and friends. It was a great afternoon party. I am still a bit in shock that it has been two years. Chris just laughs and says, wait until she is a teenager, then we can be in shock.
