Sweet Meg,
It is hard to even put into words what you are like because your personality seems so big! You are always on the go and you are typically just so happy! You are so social and just love to get out of the house and go see people. You are very friendly to almost everyone you come in contact with regardless of if they are a stranger! You love to wave really big and say, "Hey"! You always have a little pep in your step and I love watching you be-bop around when we are out and about. You are a little runner and are very fast! I get so many comments from complete strangers about how funny you are and people giggle and talk about how cute and funny the things you do are! When you get really excited and happy about something you let out loud squeels of delight. It is obvious that you love life and you love people! Your favorite places to go are to church, gymboree, and the library and the park when it is nice. It is so fun going to Gymboree Play and Music classes and seeing you with other kids your age. You are very good at listening to your teacher and are always eager to be the first in line to try something new. You may not be able to talk as well as the other 2 year olds, but you are certainly a tad bit more energetic, enthusiastic, and daring then almost all the others. Your teacher always says, "It's so sad Meg doesn't have any energy and then she will jokingly ask the other moms who wants to take you home." No one ever volunteers. Oh well!
At home you love to run around with Brody and let him try to get you into mischief. You two have a lot of fun playing tag and playing with guns, swords, and dress up stuff. You hold your own quiet well and have recently started to become a tad too aggressive with some slapping. It always seems playful and that you are just trying to be funny, but it hurts! Your favorite things to do at home are play-doh, drawing, stickers, painting, playing in the bathroom sink, and playing with bouncy balls. I love that you love some quiet sit-down activities that we can do together! You and Brody love to take baths together a couple of times a day and you both love wrestling with daddy! You always try to whisper things in my ear and think it is so funny to do that! The phrases you say the best are, "Daddy! Daddy! I pee pee in the potty." When this happens you expect (well actually demand) that Daddy come in and sing in the most grand fashion the pee pee in the potty song. You get even more excited if Brody joins in. You also say, "Night Night Brody. Night Night Daddy. Night Night BOYS." before I put you to bed each night. So sweet. And the last is "Mommy! I tooted." Wonder where you got that one? I still rock you before you nap and before bedtime. I know you are a little too old but I love it and so do you! You love watching Barney clips on You Tube. You prefer this over watching something on TV. You have been battling an ear infection that won't go away which may result in another set of tubes and you have been sleeping terribly for about the last 3 months. Who knows if that is really the reason, but it gives me something to blame so I am going with it! You typically end up in Brody's bed because that is where I am at because he doesn't sleep either (and this is why I think two kids is enough for me). I am crossing my fingers that maybe one day you guys can just sleep together without me in there!
You are constantly doing hilarious things that crack us up. I am always exhausted at the end of everyday! You keep me on my toes with all of your climbing, jumping, and general craziness. But I wouldn't have it any other way. We love you more than you will ever know and I feel beyond blessed to get to spend almost every minute of everyday with you!!!
