Happy Birthday Klein!

Klein turned 2 today and as I look back, I can't believe how time has flown by. She has brought so much joy to our family. A few things about Klein...

She has always been very sweet and thoughtful. If you are holding her and rub her back, she will rub yours back. She gives lots of hugs and kisses. She has a soft spot in her heart for all animals and babies.
She does everything Max does. It was really hard to know what to buy for her birthday because she usually just follows Max around and tries to play with his stuff.
She has grown up so fast and really doesn't seem like a two year old. She rides a bike and knows her colors. She sings primary songs and does puzzles and she wears 4T clothes.
She hasn't napped for almost six months so she is usually exhausted at the end of the day. Luckily, she will sleep for 12 hours and has done almost since she was born.
She loves to ride the four- wheeler at Grandpa's and as we drive by the cows she waves to all of them. She also points out every tractor and horse that we pass while driving in the car.

We went to Toy Story 3- her first movie and she loved it. She let her aunt Shauna do her hair so cute while I ran to get her present. We had cake and ice cream with all four grandparents. She loved her balloons and cake. Max was very helpful as she blew out her candles and opened her presents. He is taking care of some of them for her :) We got her a fish and two miniature frogs. She was really hard to buy for this year because she doesn't play with anything exclusively. She mostly just does what Max is doing but she loves animals and was really excited about the fish and frogs. I just hope the cat doesn't get them.

We love you Klein!

Happy Birthday Klein! She is a beautiful little girl... glad she would sit still for a second for me to do her hair. Can't believe she is TWO!

Time does fly! I remember when she was born and visiting you the day you came home with her from the hospital. You're telling me that was two years ago? Now she is a beautiful little girl! I love her expressions in the pictures! She is oh, so sweet! Great idea giving her fish and frogs! I bet she is loving them! Perfect for you too. Low maintenance! Can't wait for baby #3 to get here. Klein will finally have someone to play barbies with! We'll be in Utah in a few weeks. For sure, let's get together. I'll call you!
