At 2 years old, she is full of energy from 6 am to her 8:30 bedtime. She is now fully potty trained and doing amazing! We only used pull-ups for nap and bedtime for about a week and then decided she didn't need them so we were done with that. She can sing her ABC's all the way through and recognizes most of her shapes. She knows her days of the week, but forgets Thursday almost everytime. She's still working on getting her numbers in the right order when she counts and recognizing her colors - she gets pink and purple pretty much everytime, go figure, right?!! Daddy has also taught her that "purple's yucky" which all of those KSU fans just love to hear her say. She's ready for football season already and says that she's not going to be scared to give Baby Jay a five this year but Big Jay still scares her. haha I wish I could write down all the funny things she says so that I will never forget the cuteness that comes out of her mouth. She loves Mickey Mouse and playing Monkey Preschool Lunchbox on the ipad. She LOVES being outside doing anything, riding her scooter, "helping" mom and dad wash the cars, playing in the sprinkler or the pool, riding her tricycle, sidewalk chalk, soccer, I could go on and on. When we play inside she loves to play with her babies, feeding them, burping them, covering them up, etc. She also loves to play with her Little People doll house. She loves reading books and just recently even just sitting by herself and looking through them. Some of the books we have - she's read so many times she can almost recite them all by herself. So cute.
For her second birthday we blew up balloons and put them in the living room for when she woke up. She loved it! We also went to play in the pool and then we had her party in the afternoon. We had it at the park. She loved it! We did pink and green and she wanted monkeys. Everything turned out really cute. I ordered some little hanging monkeys to decorate and then thekids took them home with them. They had little tags that said "thanks for swinging by Love, Aspen" to hang on them.
Her cupcakes turned out so cute! :) As we were eating cupcakes, I looked over and Aspen had the candle, I was thinking she's just licking the frosting. wrong! As we're cleaning up I find the "2" candle with a chunk out of the side of it...
She had a blast playing in the park. She loved that she got to wear her tutu! :)
Our family on Aspen's birthday!
Happy 2nd Birthday baby girl - we love you so much!
