the day we added pink...



i'm not sure why but...
for some reason i always assumed i would have a house full of boys. seriously, even before levi was born brian and imagined a life full of sons. smelly clothes full of sweat and food vanishing quicker then i could replace it kinda life. i knew my heart wanted girls, but i honestly thought god desire for us was to have boys....

the whole first three months of my second pregnancy i kept telling brian to "think pink". hoping somehow god would hear my heart and bring me my girl.
and sure enough, he heard our prayers and granted them by giving us the most girly girl we know!

alivia,
you've never ripped out hair bows, you love to paint your nails, you prefer dresses to shorts and pants. your first word was "shoes" for crying out loud. you refer to things as "so cute" and "purdy". your tender and sweet with attitude and sass only a true girl can possess. the world melts at the sight of your smiley dimples. you scream at the sight of bugs and lizards, you freak out when your hands get dirty. you love dress up, tea parties, and baby dolls. your smart and fearless, you beg to twirl and dance with daddy. you are the girl we prayed and desired for.

our life was blessed beyond what we ever thought was possible 3 years ago when god gave us a touch of pink bundled up in a whole lotta girl!
