Dear Julie

I can't believe how big you are getting. How much you've changed but also how exciting it is to watch you change and grow! This past couple weeks, it just seems like you are learning so much. We've finally moved you up to a big girl car seat, and you've been learning to repeat and say so many new words. My personal favorite is "Oops!". I don't think you know what it means but it's adorable to hear you say it. You now know how to play peekaboo with us "Peek.... boo!" which is adorable of course, and you are getting to be more and more of your own person, with your own opinions. You've been like that for awhile but that personality just keeps developing more and more everyday.

You are funny. You are such a good eater. You have an attitude. You have a silly and sweet "bulldog" smile. You laugh like you really mean it. You scream like you mean it, too. You are so fun to get up in the morning when you want your blanket to be in the first hug right there with you. You are amazing.

I can tell the toddler years are going to be a little tricky at times, but I'm so excited to see what you'll do next. We have so many more adventures to go on, and with the springtime, I know that we'll have so many more things to do very soon. I can't wait!

I love you!

Mommy (which you still refuse to say ;)
