25 months old

You continue to amaze me everyday.. You love the world around you so much. Your smile lights up my heart, makes me so happy to see you happy and growing and healthy. You love being outdoors. You continue to be a super picky eater, still only liking go-gurt (that I freeze so you think it's a Popsicle) , cereal, waffles, eggs, Mac n cheese , watermelon, hot dogs, strawberries you pick from the yard, and pretty much anything junk food. 

You love your brother, will walk over to him just for hugs. He smiles so big when he sees your face, total admiration from him for you. 

You have become so independent. If you want something out of the cub-bard you will move your chair so you can reach it yourself. You bring me the go-gurt and scissors so I can cut it for you. You direct me towards the garage and prompt me to "open" it. You knock on the sliding door and call "patches, where are you? " when you can't see her . 

You LOVE the pool, have been wanting to go in all the time with daddy. You started taking gymnastics classes with daddy in Saturday so mommy can sleep in .. Daddy says you aren't the worst but aren't quite the best (JUST YET) . 

2 years old

Well it's official, I have a two year old on my hands as of yesterday. We celebrated your birthday little mermaid style this year, you just adore Ariel. 

This past month your language has improved dramatically. You repeat almost every word. You still are a picky eater, pretty much love Mac n cheese, sometimes bites of steak, gaucamole, Popsicles, go gurt, cheese, and juice . 

You're 32 pounds and 36" tall. You still wear diapers but most of the day you're without and pee on the potty. 

You love being outside, going to Disneyland, the little mermaid, your little brother, chasing the boys outside, playing with daddy (talking out the trash and picking up dog poop) , patches (your dog), the beach, pool, watering the plants, looking for butterfly's, balloons, playing dress up, putting on shoes, pulling off your and your brothers diaper, riding your skateboard, and hanging with mommy!
