I can’t believe my baby girl turned 14 this weekend! She is the joy of my life… I am so lucky to have her. Although I wondered if I would survive her two year old phase, she has become a wonderful young woman. She is caring, loving and thoughtful. She loves to give me hugs, and not just at home… she’s not embarrassed to be affectionate with her family in public either. She will still let me go clothes shopping with her, she is a certified book-worm, and she loves to help in the kitchen. (I should clarify that… she loves to cook and bake, NOT wash dishes.)
Some of her favorite things:
She loves the Percy Jackson books (R. Riordan), (anything and everything that is about Percy Jackson… she is a HUGE fan.) She also loves the Mortal Instrument series (C. Clare) the Twilight series (S. Meyer) the Harry Potter series (J.K. Rowling), the Narnia books (C.S. Lewis), the Hunger Games books (S. Collins) and many more.
She loves to eat French Toast for breakfast and Texan Haystacks for dinner. She even loves to be the one to make them. She also knows how to make pancakes. tacos, sloppy joes, brownies, cakes, and cookies. I love when she walks into the kitchen, asks what’s for dinner, and then offers to take over cooking. (And no, she is NOT for sale… just in case you were wondering!)
She loves Taylor Swift, but NOT Justin Bieber. Her favorite colors are red and purple. She loves Texas Roadhouse and IHOP.
She loves to watch Bones, Project Runway, Mythbusters, Phineas and Ferb, and Amazing Race.
And the thing I loved most about her this month? She asked for her own digital camera for her birthday. (A girl after my own heart!) This is the one she got… For some reason, I missed getting a picture of her with it. The night before her birthday she had two friends sleep over and early the next morning we took them all up to Flagstaff to play in the snow. Here’s a sneak peek of her on her birthday… more snow fun to be posted soon!

Sounds like her and I have a lot in common, we'd get along great!
She sounds like her mom! And yes, VERY wonderful. Is that her room the girls are in? CSU? That's all four of my sister's kids went to college!
Janine, Eric got his Bachelor's at BYU and then did a distance program through CSU to get his MBA. The girls are on our futon in the game/bonus room. :)
Megan is growing up so fast. What a wonderful Birthday gift for her!
