Addy at 2

I wanted to write a few things about Addy so we will always remember how fun and silly she is at this age. Addy loves to play with her babies. She is so sweet and takes great care of them. She is becoming a great little mommy! She still loves to draw and just learned to draw circles. She can recognize and say several shapes. Her two favorites at the moment are a circle and a star. She has mastered her puzzles and is learning her numbers and ABC's. When she counts she says, "1 2 3 6 8 10." She loves to sing the same songs over and over. Her faves are itsy bitsy spider, wiggle song (yo gabba gabba), the wise man, twinkle twinkle little star, sunbeam, bia bia ( a song I taught her from 2nd grade), and e-i-e-i-o.


I have to give her options every day when she gets dressed. I can't believe she all ready has an opinion with what she wears. She always tells me what "matches" to her. She is very particular on her jeans and pants. She knows the difference and lets me know when I mess up. The shoes are usually the hardest. She has her favorites and wants to wear nothing else. She loves her two new pair of boots which is a plus for the season.

She has started to mimic me a lot! I have noticed what phrases and excuses we say the most to her because she tries and uses them on me. She is starting to put all her words together and making sense. If I tell her we can't do something right now she says "when daddy's home." I guess I use that a lot! She still calls her dad by his name but says a "t" instead of a "c". Every morning we wake up to Addy saying "mornin tis, mornin mom." I love it! She is so polite and says "please" and "sanks" before and after anything you do for her. When I tell her I love her she says "yovins mom!" She says "stop it" now instead of "no." I dislike that phrase just as much! All night I hear " stop it tis!" A few favorites are when she says " awe man", "tome on guys" (come on guys), "Addy's happy too!", " meana" ( excuse me), " boo da boo" ( peek a boo), and " ahoo ahoo!"



Chris and I love Addy so much. She is my little buddy and I enjoy all the time I get to spend with her. I am excited for the baby to come and to see her interact with him. She is going to be a great big sister! Love you Addy!
