2 1/2 already! Yay!
You two are the most adorable persons ever. Happy half birthday, Westley!
This is very sweet! I love the interview idea. I want to do that with my daughter on her 2 1/2 Birthday coming up. It would be fun to do it at every half Birthday through their lives!
I love this! Happy 2.5 Westley! It sounds like you need to learn the words to some Shrek songs!
