Halle's 2nd Birthday!

I can't believe my little girl is 2! I am having so much fun with her. She is such a happy kid. I love seeing her get so excited about everything. She is sooo affectionate, always hugging me and giving me kisses. I laughed the other day because she gave our car tire a hug! She is such a blessing to me and I am so grateful to have her in my life. I don't know what I ever did without her!


For her birthday we gave her a playhouse to put on our patio. She loves being outside even if it is freezing or pouring rain. When she wakes up in the morning the first thing she says is "Outside?" I didn't get a picture of it but about a week ago when it was pouring rain she was begging to go outside, finally I thought since it is raining if I let her go outside she wouldn't want to be wet and come right back in. So I put her hat and coat on and let her go outside. She loved it and played out there for quite some time. She wasn't going to let a little rain storm get in her way!
We also went to Chuck E Cheese with my sisters family. Her little girls, Addison and Madelyn, turn 2 a couple days after Halle. It is so much fun to have our girls so close together. There are the three little amigos. Halle also LOVES my sister's little boy Jaxson. I think she has a crush on him.

Halle loved blowing out the candles. I was impressed at how well she could blow them out.

Toph is a little kid at heart. Halle wanted to play in the jungle gym but she was a little to small to go by herself so Toph got in there with her. He even crawled through all of the tubes and went down the slide!

Trip to China

Toph went to China last week to look at a Dental Lab there. He was gone for about a week and it was kind of hard to find the right time to talk to him. We I woke up in the mornings he was just going to bed. The time difference was crazy. While he was there he went to the Temple District which is where all of the shops are. He got me some really cute jeans and a bunch of other stuff . It is crazy how cheap everything is there. It was a good trip for him but I am so glad he is back!

Toph brought this dress back for Halle. She would not hold still to let me take a picture. She is getting so hard to take pictures. When I tell her to say cheese she closes her eyes and opens her mouth really wide.
