Anna is 2 - or as she says "I chew years old".  It seems like I blinked and this girl turned 2!!

Two Years!!

 

 

Here is Anna and Josh preparing her hand and footprints for her bday table cloth tradition:

Here are a couple pics from her party:

The Arces visited and helped us with Anna's party!

 We are loving this age! Anna is growing so much and learning so much.  It is really neat to watch her take everything in and hear her describe all that she does.  She is a TALKER!! She repeats everything, and is communicating great.  Most people still cannot understand what she says, but mom and dad can understand her most of the time!

She can answer questions like "What is your name" and "How old are you".  She says "I Anna Grace" which sounds more like "I yaya gace".  It's pretty cute :)

Her favorite things? 
Mowing:

 

Playing with friends and riding her "car" down the driveway (it has a slight downward slope and she goes FAST!):

 

At her two year appointment, we learned that Anna is in the 90 percentile for weight and 75 percentile for height.  She is growing big!

 

With us going in and out alot, flies have gotten in, and Anna spends a lot of her day attacking the flies(without much success).  Once she even hit me on the arm and I don't know if she imagined a fly or if it was really there.  HILARIOUS!

 

She is sleeping pretty well, although she has teeth coming in and that may be disrupting her night sleep.  She takes a 2-3 hour nap around noon everyday. 

 

She likes to play with her tea set, blocks, push her stroller, run, sing "wheels on the bus", swing, and pretend to talk on the phone (she uses various things as a phone).  She LOVES being outside watering plants, playing in her pool or just running around. 

 

She is really starting to love Caleb.  She always wants to know what he is doing and if he cries, she says "I ceck on him".  She plays with him and shares her toys with him on good days.  Other days she gets upset if he wiggles and touches her.  I think she thinks he is hitting or kicking her.  All in all, she's a great BIG sister. 

 

Discipline is getting better, but we have good and bad days.  The terrible twos haven't been too terrible thus far. 

 

 



We love this sweet, loud, fast, happy two year old!!
