Dear Cupcake,
Happy 2nd birthday!!! You had a blast at your party! Since Madelyn and you are only 45 hours apart we decided to celebrate together. Your boyfriend Cole was there along with BFF Lucy Rose and your cousin Brooklyn, the Quads, the Young family, Maddie's cousins, all the grandparents and Aunt Lizzy and Uncle Brian. You were all over the place :)
You have SO MUCH personality. I love it! You are happy and love life and everyone can tell it. You have a very loud voice for such a small girl and you love being the center of attention. I have a feeling you are going to be a cheerleader with that loud voice or either an auctioner! You love to talk. Right now you are saying all kinds of words and making some sentences. "Opy (Open) Door, No Addy, I want that, Go to School, I want jellys (jelly beans), What Connor What?" all come to mind right now. You still nap from 12:45-4pm every day. Bed from 7:30pm-7:30am. You are in size 3 diapers (your brother is about to pass you up in weight--he's 17 lbs size 2 diapers). You wear size 18 mn clothes. You weighed 20 lbs 13 oz (5%) was 31 3/4 inches long (4%). You are estimated to be exactly 5 ft when you are 20 years old. Fun fact, huh?
You still don't have any hair really. Still red too. Crazy to think I have a red headed child when neither your dad nor I have red hair. You love your brother and can't wait to see him every morning!! I love it! You are a little momma to him! You rock him, try and feed him with a bottle, get his pacifier for him and even try and get "him" a snack when you're getting yourself one. You are always watching out for him and make such a wonderful big sister. You practice on your babies. You carry them around with you everywhere. Loving Snoopy right now too. Still have to have your Aden and Anais blankets but we threw away your Uh Oh! You minic me in everything I do. Too cute. If I put my hands on my hips, you put your hands on your hips. If I open a book, you open your book. If I get a pan out and start cooking, you go to your kitchen and start cooking. You have to have your sunglasses on too just like Mommy.
Have I told you lately how much I love you?!?! You bring so much joy to our lives. You are at a fun age where you understand everything going on around you and interact with us like a litte adult. I can say "Cam, will you bring me the blue blanket in the rocking chair in my room" and you go get it. I even catch you throwing away your own trash and picking up some toys (not many.. ha !) In the sense, you are nothing like your dad! You make me laugh all the time. You don't leave the house without asking for a bow and pointing to your head! :)
Your favorite movie is Finding Nemo (or as you say Meno), Lion King, Barney & Elmo. You love to hide from me these days. You go hide in the back of my closet under all my hanging clothes and sit as still as possible. I panic everytime! Then I see a tiny little foot sticking out and realize where you are. You are going to give me a heartache I just know it! You know how some people say what goes around comes around? Well, your dad I'm sure did this to Mia (I did not do this to my mom). Somehow I'm getting the payback and you and Daddy love it?!?!
You pottied on the little potty all by yourself around 23 months! I didn't push it at all. You just told me you needed to go and went. We were so proud of you. We haven't pushed it anymore though. I'm confident you will tell me when you are ready (you are so independent).
You have 2 1/2 of your 2 yr molars already in. Crazy! You get your teeth early.
You love school and get up every morning and say "School?" You are very good at using a spoon and love to sit at your little table and eat. You also got a cooking get for Christmas and LOVE to cook like Mommy. We moved it in the kitchen so we can both cook together :)
We went on an all girls trip to Coleman with Lane and Lucy Rose for Aunt Ammy's baby shower. You girls had so much fun playing at every McDonald's from here to Coleman. You also LOVE "dee" (deer) and feeding the cows. You LOVE your Honey and Pepe'. You want nothing to do with me when they are around. They are pretty crazy about you too (to say the least!) You know all your body parts and like to brush mommy's hair in the mornings.
Everyday I wake up I love you more and more. You are truly my little sunshine. Just looking at your giggly face puts me in a great mood. I love you so much Cammy Cam!
Love,
Mommy
