My, oh my, how she has grown and changed over the past two years! From a sleeping,nursing, cuddly newborn to a loving, spirited and playful toddler {who is still pretty cuddly- lucky me!}.


MC loves...
- playing and loving with her family and friends. Everybody {or bodies as she says} gets love.
- Elmo and Ellen.
 - baby dolls. Playing, feeding, changing, dancing, loving, and putting night night. Actually anything with them really.
- talking and singing. Her favorite tune is "Twinkle, Twinkle" and many songs are set to it.
-being read to and reading books.
-water {"wah-wah"}, cheese and fruit. And sometimes, a little chocolate. ;)
-pizza, mac and cheese, cucumbers and tomatoes.
-kisses and hugs.
-waking up early.

MC doesn't love...
-most green foods.
-having her hands dirty.
-having to come inside from playing outside.



This pic was taken at the pediatrician's office for her 2 year visit. She is so brave- no tears for the shots or anything. She was only a bit afraid of the weighing scales. 

Other notable stats about our 2 year old:
- Weight and height are both about 83%. Pretty close to symmetrical is what the doctor said. ;) I am guessing she is going to have some height like daddy, because I was nowhere near 83% for anything on those charts.


She is smart. {But, of course, I am biased}
She can recognize close to every letter of the alphabet and recognizes numbers 1-9.
She knows most to all of her body parts and knows some shapes--even octagon?!?!
Everyday she puts together a new sentence or knows how to do something I didn't know she could. {And I spend most of everyday with her!}

She is compassionate and observant. She is concerned when people are sad, kisses boo boos, and cradles her toys. She touches people gently {most of the time} and pets too. She loves being around and near people.  I really feel like the Lord is shaping her into a young girl with a heart for those left wanting and hurting.

She is a performer. She loves to dance, sing, play music, and talk to anyone that will listen. Although she might have to warm up to you a little first.

Our dearest MC- You fill our hearts with joy! I am so honored to be your mama. Each day is a new adventure as we learn from one another. And although we might not always be happy with another, know that we will always love you.
