Justee's Birthday

Justee had a great birthday...It was extra special because Justin got to join us on web cam. It was so nice to have him "here" with us.

We set up our little party in the office so that Justin could see everything.

Justee got a lot of great presents...Dress up clothes and stickers from Grandma and Grandpa Hyde, a card from Thompsons, a Love Dollar from Great Grandma and Grandpa Putnam, a little doggy from Syd, a phone from Charlee, a pig that shakes, and a Dora ball pit. Thank you everyone!

Mom and the Birthday Girl:

Justee needed a little help getting her second candle to go out.

Eating the fish cake:

Justee loves her ball pit...but I don't know what I was thinking....there are balls everywhere. ;)

Here is a couple pics of Justee talking to her Dad...She was blowing him kisses and telling him goodbye.

Justee had had enough with the picture taking...she didn't want me to take anymore, but I wanted to show Grandma what she did with the stickers she got...


Justee in her Snow White dress up stuff:

Justee is acting just like a two year old is supposed to act...She is very good at throwing fits...she has at least 3 breakdowns a day. She is very moody and it seems like she is either very happy or very mad. She can be really sweet when she wants to be, and she gives GREAT hugs. She loves to sing and is singing songs she knows and songs she just makes up all the time. Some of her favorites are Jesus Wants me for a Sunbeam (or Sunbeep according to her), and ABC's. She loves to take her diaper off and run around in the buff. She is in the "watch me" phase...she is always doing some trick like jumping off of something or somersaulting and yelling, "Watch me Mommy!" Justee is always playing with my hair...it tends to drive me crazy, but she thinks it belongs to her (just like Sydnee did for her first 4 years of life.) She even holds it in her hand and kisses it. weird, I know...it definitely is her security blanket.

Ever since Justin has been gone, Justee has started crying when I leave her with a babysitter...she used to just say bye, and be fine...I think she has become more attached to me now that I am the only parent around.

Justee is a lot of fun, she makes me laugh everyday...she makes me crazy everyday too, but overall she is worth it. We all love her very much.
