My two year old

Sometimes I simply can't get over the fact that I get to be your mommy. You are such a joy, but are growing up way too fast!

Favorite color: "Yeyow"
Favorite foods: Oatmeal, olives, green beans, broccoli and tomatoes. Once you refused a cookie because you were eating a tomato.

Interests: You love your dollies, flowers, animals (from a distance) and trucks.
Favorite song: "Jesus" (Jesus loves me)


Endearing habits: Instead of saying "I love you", you say, "Yes-a-Mama" and pull my face to yours for a kiss.
When you get your hair fixed, try on new clothes or wear your favorite outfit, you want to show Papa and ask, "Papa, pitty [pretty]?"
Favorite outfit: the apple dress



Animal sounds: You have most of them down, but insist that the horse says "yee-haw" and all elephants say "Roll Tide!"

Sweet sayings:

"Mama, hold you!"

"Dat truck....big truck...YEYOW TRUCK!"

"Baby. Boy. Wiyum!"
you say while patting my tummy. Then ask "Baby Ro-Ro tummy?"

"Cuddle Mama. Kisses?"

"Pitty...kute...niiiiiice!"


You are terribly afraid of the vacuum cleaner. In an attempt to overcome your fear, one night you put yourself to sleep saying "Nice 'vuum. Nice 'vuum." It didn't work.

I love you darling!

Many thanks to your Aunt Crystal for the awesome pictures!

I love this post!

Hudson also loves "yeyow". Will almost always choose fruit over sweets. Favorite song is "The Wheels on the Bus." Loves anything with wheels, singing, picking and smelling herbs, sweeping the floor and going for walks. Favorite phrases: "Hi, Da-da" "Bus!!!" "Niiice" Favorite attire: Galoshes

Again, it amazes me how similarly children develop and yet remain very gender distinct. So fun. It will be even more interesting to see the differences as we both anticipate babies of the opposite sex. Thanks for the post!

It is amazing how similar children are! I love the fact that among all of Rosalind's girlish delights, she is *fascinated* with trucks.
