Aiden is 2

Thursday, October 5, 2017

We have a two year old! I know I've said this since her one month update, but truly - HOW?! She is everything. I don't know how we ever lived without her! Here are a couple of my favorite pictures and updates of her lately...

She does a fake sneeze that makes me want to die of adorableness.
She has the best laugh and run (I'm not biased.)
She's hilarious and makes us laugh constantly.
I caught her climbing out of her crib, so we moved her to her big girl bed/room on July 1. She had a couple rough nights, but now loves it! We have a gate at her door to keep her from going exploring in the middle of the night.
When I was pregnant, she would lift up her shirt, point to her tummy and say 'bee bee!'
If you asked where the baby was, she pointed to my tummy.
If you asked if she's having a brother or sister, she always said sister. (From the mouths of babes, I tell ya!)
Watching her with her baby sister is more than my heart can handle. She loves Emmie so much!
She also really loves stealing Emerson's pacis and hiding so she can use them. Little stinker.
Since she's two, she's really mastering the temper tantrum. It's kind of hilarious. She will just throw herself on the floor silently and look up to make sure you're noticing her.
Her favorite color is "PINK!" She's currently learning her colors - before everything was either BLUE! or PINK!
She loves to sing. Her current favorites are: ABCs, Skidamarink, Row Row Row Your Boat, Open Shut Them
High five to Adam who has been teaching her the alphabet during bathtime. She's getting so good at it!
She hasn't found a movie she doesn't love. Trolls (Poppy!), Sing, Moana, The Secret Life of Pets, Cinderella...
She loves to color and "write". She's constantly asking us to write her name, and she can spell it on her own.
I have to say I was getting kind of concerned about her speech. She talks all the time, but I'm pretty sure anyone other than family would have NO idea what she's saying. She's not the best annunciator. But her pediatrician (and Adam) wasn't concerned, so neither am I!
She says 'Huh' instead of 'Yes', a trick she learned from Jude but hasn't grown out of. I'm trying to just soak in her adorable voice and babbling while it lasts, because I know it won't!
As of her two year appointment, she's 35.75" tall (91%), weighs 26.9 lbs (68%) and her noggin comes in at the 89% at 19.25"
