I know it has been a little while now since her birthday, but we still can't believe she is already so big! And we really can't get over how fun this little girl is! She has the sweetest little spirit about her and the dang cutest face ever!
I swear she changes over night, every night! She's growing too fast and I am amazed all the time at what she knows and how quickly she learns. She has quite the little memory, especially for music and books. She loves to sing and dance, and she loves to read! Dr Seuss is a current favorite. I don't complain about that.
She is a ball of fire and has quite the personality. She has developed a bit of that famous "terrible two's" attitude. We hear "no", "mine", and "want it" a lot! But she is sweet. She's still stingy with the lovies, but she does like to hold hands and cuddles up snug when she wants to.
She is actually a really good talker and talks all the time! For the most part she's easy to understand, but we've had to adapt to a few odd balls:
An uhwya is an umbrella,
the poopilly is the computer,
she loves to eat woopnacks (fruit snacks) and drink cocky ilk (chocolate milk),
peacock is both St Nick and picnic,
aboony is balloon,
awe-paleen is an airplane,
she loves to wean (swing) and steers clear of things that are dijijus (dangerous).
When she's upset we most often hear "shoot", "darn it", and "awe boy..."
She loves to count, but gets stuck after 6 ("1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6... 5"), and she is obsessed with the alphabet. She always points out "dooper wetty's" (super letters) and loves to practice colors.
She is very headstrong, very independent, and kind of likes to have her own space and time to herself.
Can't imagine where she gets that...
She insists on going everywhere "too fast" and has the cutest little half skip run step. She thinks she's really tough, but wants all of her boo-boo's kissed and stays pretty cautious. She hates being up high, hates having her clothes wet, and hates having to take a break.
She keeps us smiling and reminds us what's important. She loves to sing about Jesus, loves to point out the "puppet" (prophet), loves nursery, and folds her arms and likes to help us say prayers. She likes to kiss my belly and "love the baby". She loves it when daddy comes home and likes to follow me around and copy me all day. She is the funnest little companion and will be the best big sister!
Basically, she is the best! We love her to pieces and feel so blessed to have this sweet little lady running around our home.
If only she wouldn't grow so fast...
