Happy 2nd Birthday Macie! It's so cliche to say, but it really feels like we just brought you home from the hospital, and you're already 2. You are such a sweet, funny, smart, beautiful little girl. I see you learn new things everyday, and you have such determination. Whether it's climbing something new, or learning a new task, or trying to figure out a toy you work on it until you conquer it.
You have really come a long way in the past six months, and your Daddy and I are very proud of you. We love seeing the changes in you, and you are also pretty proud of yourself. Grandma always says that she's convinced that there is a 40 year old woman trapped in your body, and I am starting to agree with her. It's really just the looks you give us sometimes, or your independence. You want to do everything yourself. You don't dare let us feed you anything. I try with the messy things like ice cream, but you want to do it yourself no matter how messy you get. You climb up into your chair yourself for meals, you help put on your own shoes, and you are getting good at dressing yourself. You stand at the sink after your bath and brush your own teeth, and you climb into your car seat all by yourself. You are so sweet and have been giving me lots of hugs and kisses lately. You also feed me some of your food from time to time.
It's all kind of bittersweet! We are thrilled that you are learning all these things, but it's hard to see you grow up so fast, and not need your Daddy and I so much.
We will always be there for you whether you're 40, or 2!!!!
We love you so much Face! Happy 2nd Birthday!
Love,
Mommy and Daddy

Happy Birthday, sweet Macie! Can't believe you are 2 already - Please stop growing up so fast!!!
Papa & I love you!
Macie is so beautiful, I love the time progression of pictures, thank you. I woke up today feeling like today was something, couldn't place the date but knew it was something. Ah, in comes Facebook to give me that reminder.
Now I am distinctly remembering 2 years ago today, the day sticking in my mind, the day your first baby was born. Several days from now, two years ago, I discovered I was pregnant with Ashton, looking back, one of the happiest days of my life. But at the time your sweet Macie was born I was also confronting the scariest, most unconfident and anxious times of my life. I love to see how far she's come, I celebrate this day with all of you and am grateful for the days that have passed since. XOXO
