Faith's Birthday

Faith turned 2! We still can't believe we have a little girl. She is very nurturing and loves to mother but she fits in with the boys flawlessly. She is sweet but like any two year old she is also quite a handful. The words that most frequently come out of her mouth are “more a lot!” She can never quite get enough of whatever it is she is currently enjoying.  Perhaps this next year she’ll swap those words around. She says “Hi, ChanChan!” as sing-songy as can be and the rest of us have adopted this nickname for Channing. Ethan  is “E.T”. and Dylan is not quite Dilly and not quite Dolly but a strange combination which comes out as “Dally.” Everything to Faith is blue, which leads me to believe that this is her favorite color. She also loves to sing and dance and, of course, mother her dollies.
Faith ended up having strep throat on her birthday but she managed to squeeze out a smile or two for us. She also said her first prayer, repeating the words after Chris. We were all tickled and smiled at each other throughout, somehow she managed to keep her eyes closed.

Grandma and Grandpa gave her a super girl outfit.
She thought her outgrown stocking hat completed the look.
Clearly she takes this super hero stuff very serious!
