She speaks in sentences, people. She turned two on November 18th, and she can now speak in sentences. And it’s kind of freaking me out! It’s like, one day all she could say was “hot” and “boot”, and then it was “apple, peez?”, and now it’s “have you seen my juice?” and “I’ll be careful with you” which she just said to me as she was brushing my hair. I’m just amazed, even though this is my third child, every time it’s just mind-boggling, how they grow and develop. And she sure is doing a bang-up job of it.

“Have you seen my blankets?”

“Mama, Elvis barking” (still no “k” sound, so it sounds like bar-ting)

She’s been trying to sing “Jingle Bells”, but it comes out “Deendle Bells, Deendle Bells”. We all think it’s adorable.

She’s also singing “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star”, except she starts with “how I wonder what you are”, which sounds like “how I wonner ut oo ah”. We know what she means.

And the phone! She loves to talk on the phone! She picked up my cell phone yesterday and started punching buttons, and called my Dad’s house! My Stepmother called back worried because the caller ID said it was us but no one was saying anything.

She loves to do dishes so much that she will grab a kitchen chair and drag it over to the sink, no matter whose house we are in. She sits on the floor while Chris folds laundry and holds up each piece of clothing, identifying who it belongs to-”this Ryan’s shirt”, “this Nah-Nah’s pants”.

Oh yes, and I don’t want to forget, this is the month that she decided she wants to “do it mySELF”. And she has started declaring things to be hers, although she doesn’t say MY cup, she says “MINE” cup, etc. It’s cute, for now.

She’s getting so big! *sniff* Even though two year olds can be incredibly frustrating, stubborn, and emotional, they are also soaking up information so fast it’s blinding. Every day I hear her say something new, watch her try something for the first time. And no matter how many times I’ve seen it before, it’s still awesome to watch.
