Reminiscing

Today marks the eve of the birth of my daughter Alexis.  Two years ago today I was running around like a mad woman getting ready to go to the hospital in the morning to deliver Alexis.  I was so nervous,  excited, scared and uncomfortable to be able to rest.  I was told to get a "good nights sleep."  If you know anything about me you will understand how difficult of a task that proved to be.  I am a planner and love to know exactly what was going to happen and how and when.  Well when it comes to having your first child, there is no knowing.  Needless to say it was a very restless night, between my brain going non stop and having to pee every 15 minutes it seemed.
Finally the morning came and we went to the hospital.  The drive could not go fast enough.  In the end after 13 hours Alexis arrived.

She was and still is the most beautiful baby girl!!!

You know the saying, "time flies, when you are having fun?"  It is totally true.  Tomorrow my sweet baby girl will be 2 years old.  I am having a hard time grasping how fast the time has gone and all that we have gone through in the past two years.

My advice to all new parents is, don't blink.  You never want to miss a moment with your children.  I am so grateful that I get to spend everyday all day with this angel and have gotten to experience all of her firsts.  I am looking forward to seeing and meeting her sister here in hopefully 70 days or less :)

This weekend we are going to celebrate with close friends and family with a Mickey Mouse birthday party.  Have a fantastic weekend!!!
