Happy 24 Month Birthday


September 15, 2014

Happy 2 year birthday to you! It is amazing how quickly these past two years went.  You came into this world quickly, and you haven’t stopped moving quickly since.  You have so much energy and personality. You light up the room.  You make the most adorable faces. They crack me up.  You roll your eyes in such a cute way, I can barely stand it. You sing; you dance (OH MY WORD IT IS SO CUTE!)

You still love “What Does the Fox Say” and sing and dance to it.  You love playing with your trains (“eee-eee”), and you love you brother. You guys play together, although sometimes it is a little too rough for my liking.  You like pretending you are having a swordfight. You try to do things yourself. You are independent. You love helping me in the kitchen. You say in your cute little voice “I help” and pull up a chair. Adorable. You push your babies (stuffed animals of all kinds) in a baby stroller and a shopping cart. You make them tip over and then pick them up and pretend to shush them. CUTE.

This summer we had a great time. We went to Sesame Place twice.  You didn’t like getting too close to any of the characters, but you did enjoy playing and going on the different rides.  We went to the Crayola Factory and the Philadelphia Zoo too. You liked the monkeys. We went to the beach and Cape Cod. You LOVED Cape Cod. We mostly stayed on the bay side. You had a great time looking at the different sea creatures like snails, hermit crabs, and crabs. You loved playing in the sand.  While the water wasn’t your favorite part of the beach, you didn’t mind the water on the bay side.  You did not like the water on the ocean side.  It was colder and the waves were big. We would go to the bay during the day and again in the evening during low tide. You had a great time walking out on the Brewster Flats looking at all the different sea creatures. You would pick up the shells and the seaweed. You enjoyed playing miniature golf while on vacation too, but only the first couple of holes. Then you got bored with it and hung out in the stroller and watched and relaxed.

We saw fireworks, played in some pools, played outside, went your cousin’s birthday party, and got a swingset.  You LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the swingset. You ask to go outside all the time and just love being pushed. You will walk up the ladder to the slide and come down.  You love when your friend Liam comes over and you guys sort of play together.

You had a great time at your birthday party. It was a Thomas the Train theme. You said “Wow” when you opened your presents. It was great.  We went apple picking the next day and had a wonderful time. Apple picking is my favorite part because we did that the day you were born when you were in my belly, and we went apple picking on your first birthday too. It is a sweet tradition.


Happy Birthday. I love you.
