Our Two Year Old
October 13, 2010
I love being a mom to Ava. She is such a funny little person. She seeks to be understood and when she has something she wants to make sure I hear, she holds my face in her little hands close to her face to tell me. We sing little mermaid and “if all the rain drops” constantly…she knows a few words here and there and anticipates when the words will be said and sings them as loud as she can. She loves to dance and will break out in dance anytime there is good music. She loves barney and little mermaid movies. She loves the park and asks almost daily if we can go. She loves riding her bike and insists on putting her doll in the back of her bicycle. She loves dogs and other animals. We talk about thunder almost every day – she tells me it sounds like a bear and then growls like a bear. She also loves airplanes and motorcycles. She tells me every time she hears an airplane that “daddy. airplane” (daddy goes on airplanes). She can count to three but sometimes just gets to two and then goes back to one. She thinks everything is the color purple. She puts her doll (“baby”) down for a nap, changes her diaper and feeds her a “baba” several times throughout the day. She won’t go to bed if her room is messy and insists we “ean up.”
Here are several pictures from her second birthday!


We then had a Minnie Mouse Birthday Party…
