23 Months

My sister talks about her birthday NON-stop and it's getting me super excited to celebrate my own.  I am only ONE month away from being two years old!!!  I am one silly girl with a ton of personality.  I'm becoming a "repeater" just like my sister...I mean, it's hard to get people to listen to me...I'm kinda small, so I just repeat and repeat until someone acknowledges me.  I love to ask for water and snacks...and my paci.  Mommy says it's probably time to take them away, but I think she'll let me keep them for a little longer.

I'm a great sleeper and a great eater.  I love sweets and snacks a little too much sometimes, but I will eat just about anything you give me...so Mommy can't complain too much.  I graduated into another new swim class (the one that Abby started in back in Jan) and I'm really good at doing my floats in the bathtub (which is GREAT for washing my hair...Mommy loves it!).  I can't wait for the pool to finally be warm enough to swim in...I want to show off all my new tricks.

Two things I hate lately are bugs and dirt.  My sister got me started on it...and now I scream really really loudly whenever I see bugs and dirt.  Mom loves it...just loves it.  I don't really get to pick what we watch on TV, Abby does that.  So, I mostly like whatever shows she likes.  Being a second kid is rough sometimes.  Here's to summer weather, popcicles, watermelon and my birthday being only one more month away!

22 Months

Hi guys!!  Just checking in for my 22 month picture.  I was super excited to do my picture this month and Mommy got this one in just 10 shots!  You can't tell, but I've been feeling sort of yucky for the past few days.  A fever here and there and I've had a runny nose and cough for pretty much the last 6 months.  I can't wait for warmer weather and sunshine to kick this cold out of my system.  We've had a few teaser days of warm...but the last week has been nothing but cold and rain and I'm ready to do summer things!  Mommy let me have a Popsicle the other day, but inside, in my high chair, not outside in the sun like it's supposed to be.

I've got four huge molars (two on top and two on bottom) but an missing my insizers so I've got this toothy little grin that makes me look a little like a red-neck.  I'm talking more and more each day and have lots of phrases.  And boy oh boy, I'm becoming a repeater, just like my sister.  You know, it's hard to get a word in edgewise around here with my chatty big sister so I've learned her technique and I just repeat and repeat until someone acknowledges me...and then sometimes I just keep right on repeating anyways.  Mommy loves it! (I think....).  Swim lessons are going great, I've moved up to Big Kid Swim which means I'm in the pool alone without Mommy and Daddy and they said I might be ready to graduate from that class soon too!  I'll be catching up to my big sissy soon!!  And, once summer finally hits, I think we'll be swimming in our pool a ton which will help too!  I can't wait to be a great swimmer like Daddy.
