Happy Friday, friends! This weekend we are going to be celebrating Sophia’s second birthday and I’m honestly very emotional about my baby turning two! Whoever said the days are long and the years are short, lied – it all goes by too fast! While these last few months have been quite trying with everything going on in the world, I am so grateful to have seen Sophia grow up right before my eyes every day. It’s not always easy and those toddler emotional ups and downs are a doozy, but the minute she comes over and say’s “Mommy, you okay?” or “Mommy give Bia a kiss and huggy,” I am putty in her hands and she knows it!
Throughout the year, Sophia went from crawling, to taking a few steps with our help, to waddling on her own, to full on running! What a metaphor for life, starting out really needing others and then slowly becoming self reliant.
Just as it happened in her first year, there were things that I did for the last time and when it happened I didn’t even realize it, until one day you go from baby food to making the same thing for your toddler that you are eating yourself. She’s such a little lady and doesn’t like to be dirty, loves to explore the world around her and there is no song she won’t dance to!
I love that I can soothe and calm her more than anyone, that she looks for me in the room and then will keep playing. I love that she watches what we do then copies it – like workouts, talking on the phone or even making food. I live for her little voice saying “hi” to everyone or watching to “touch” every puppy that comes our way. She has a heart of gold and that pureness is just magical.
I love that you can see her little personality come out in these pictures – equal parts sweet as she is sassy! I’m so happy that Molly from Molly J Photography was able to take these photos for us while we were on vacation last month and to celebrate another year with the little love bug!
I can't believe she's turning 2!! I was just there for 1! I was just there for your baby shower! These pictures are adorable! She is all spunk and love! XOXO, R

I get so emotional around birthdays as well. It can be bittersweet seeing our little ones grow. These pictures are beautiful and what special moments captured. I hope you have the best time celebrating!

Oh these pictures are beautiful. I can't believe she's turning two… it truly seems like she was born just months ago. Soak it all up, momma. I miss the days of chubby legs and baby giggles and I'd give anything to go back just for a minute to snuggle my two when they were tiny again. Happy birthday to your sweet Sophia! P.S. Her little denim jacket is KILLING ME. So dang cute.
