The Big 2 Year Old!!!

Emma is now officially a 2 year old. Boy oh boy where does the time go!! She has grown and learned so much it is crazy. It seems like her vocabulary expands by 20 words a day. I can't even begin to tell you everything she can say. She is even starting to speak in sentences. She is very polite and say thank you all of the time, she also will say excuse you.

She is starting to get into playing with her babies. She will give them their nippies and blankeys or even a bottle. She will whisper whenever they are sleeping. For her birthday she got the Dora twins and she just absolutely loves them. She is a very loving mommy to the both of them, which will come in handy this summer.

She also got a piano with a microphone. She loves to play, sing and dance all the time. She will put her mouth on the microphone and sing "abc, abc, abc" it is just too cute. She can count; however, sometimes she forgets a few. Most times you will hear her go "1 2 3 4 8 9 10 11". But whenever you count with her, she remembers the 5 6 7. She can even do some counting in spanish, thanks to Dora. I couldn't believe it!!

Her newest thing is, I will tell her that I love her and she will say "love you more". Then of course we have to go back and forth about it, she thinks it is absolutely fun. Or she will just say, I love you too, without you having to say anything first. She is just so loving. She loves hugging and handing out kisses. I couldn't have asked for a better girl!!

Of course she has her typical toddler moments, but what toddler doesn't. We are going to try the whole potty training thing now. I'm not sure how this is going to work, but I'm gonna try. And the whole trying to get her to go to sleep in bed is working about 1/2 and 1/2, but it's a process.

The last year with Emma has been another fabulous year and I can't wait to see what this year will bring. Between, potty training and becoming a big sister, she a full year ahead of her. I'm sure she will continue to amaze me every step of the way, just like she has for the last 2 years. We love Emma so much, more than we ever knew we could love someone!! Happy Birthday Sweetheart!!
