Well, I't's been too long since I've posted anything, so today is the day! We're so in love with our daughter, what a fun age she is right now, she's definitely a sugar coated spice ball of an almost 2 year old!!! Her vocabulary is beginning to expand, and it's so fun to listen to her jibber jabber all day!!! Here's the list of words that we can actually understand: "NO, Nana, Papa, Momma, Daddy, food, uh oh, Bye, Poop, toot, toes, socks, Binky, and Blanky, bug, go, cow, doggie, ducky, kitty, and moo" Everyday she's experimenting and trying out new sounds, unfortunately she says "NO" for everything...even when she means yes...so we have a little problem communicating sometimes! This morning we woke up to our first real snow of the season...unfortunately John was not as excited as Carter and I (having not grown up with much snow, it's a magical wonder every winter for me....I LOVE it and get soooo excited apparently my daughter is going to follow suit!)
We spent the morning looking out the window and pointing to all of the pretty snow!
I'm way behind in blogging, so this picture is from quite a while ago, I just get a kick out of it! Carter had been really sick with a cold, and John had been gone almost 24/7 driving truck for beat harvest....we'd had a rough day together, and decided a movie would make us both feel better....I just love it...what's a girl to do when she's sick and misses daddy?....why the answer of course is to eat a piece of cheese and relax in her comfy pink chair!!!
This one got emailed to family (so sorry for the repeat) but I just love this cheesy little kid....she's learning to say "CHEESE" for the camera, however the smile doesn't quite shine through yet!!! Again this was from a while ago, her newest trick is to push kitchen chairs around, climb up, and then of course reach WHATEVER her determined little mind has set out to get!!!
For now her favorite thing to do is to stand at the counter and color while Momma cooks and cleans....well, lets just say, coloring with pens is a BIG NO NO at our house...but it was a definite, pregnant..."I DON'T Care what happens" kind of a day....well....
Of course the end result....body art...!
Come winter, John and I love to whip out the games at night, well, when you have a toddler that needs to do everything you do too....the solution...give her a deck of cards and the last few drops of root beer to make her happy!!!
She spent literally over an hour putting taking the cards in and out of the box...and NOT ONE was bent or broken...she's very meticulous and focused when she's working on something, and very careful...what a funny little thing!
Oh! HOW CUTE! She is just a doll. I miss you guys! I need to call you again, because I want to know where you bought that cute pink chair. My kids are asking santa for their own sofa chairs (like that one) for christmas this year. I want David to be able to lounge in his own chair too when all he needs is a movie and relaxation!!! We all need that sometimes! Sure love ya sister. Glad you are all doing well.
