My little Markey

Two years ago today....in the same fashion that we found out I was pregnant, Markey came flying into this world!  It is definitely a night I will never forget.  Finally left our house about 10:30pm on a Saturday night (thanks to my mother's insistence to go to the hospital), checked in about 11:30pm, and Mark was born less than 45 minutes later!  No drugs, no doctors there, just me, Matt, and the nurses!  What a whirlwind.  And then there he was, this precious baby boy with his dark brown hair.  Another man in my life that stole my heart!

Mark is truly just such a sweet little fella.  Whereas Zachary takes after his daddy's personality, I would say Markey favors me more.  Go with the flow....until you REALLY tick him off ;-)

He amazes me daily with the things he says and does.  I know every parent says it, but he is very bright!  He has already been recognizing letters and numbers and been talking in sentences forever.  He always has fun playing with his brother, but he is also just as happy to sit and play with his cars on his own!

He LOVES any type of vehicle...cars, trucks, trains, airplanes!  He loves his loveys.  His best friends are for sure his big brother and his Popsie (or Poppie as he calls him).  But he still loves his momma best!  I love that he still wants to sit and snuggle and cuddle with me.

Yet he is a daredevil too!  You don't have to ask him twice to try anything, he will go for it.  A lot of times even before his big brother!

Sweet Markey, I love you so much and am so proud to be your mommy.  Your daddy and I are beyond blessed to have been chosen to be your parents.  Two years has gone by too fast already...I can't wait to see what else you will do in this next year and many years to come!  You make every day better for our family and we love you oh so very much.  Happy birthday, son!  We love you!
