When Abby-doo turns two

…You throw a party to celebrate everyone surviving the last two years.

We love our Abby. She has become a girl full of attitude but at the same time she is easy going.

Apparently she’s sprouted. All her % are up. Her weight from her 18 month appointment went from 6% to a current 34%. This makes me happy especially since she slowly declined from the 50’s since birth.

When it came to birthday celebrations we stressed. Abby doesn’t like cake or cake-like things. We wanted to make a pie but ran out of time with our weekend adventures. So we went for brownie pudding which she completely turned her nose up at even though it screamed chocolate, her favorite. Oh well.

She was really excited for gifts. She asked for an orange balloon and fish crackers. She may have gotten a little more than what she asked for.

Katelyn couldn’t contain herself. She had to help with gifts.

At this point in her life she may or may not have a favorite color. It’s either orange or purple.

She still loves chocolate. If she wants a chocolate croissant she will pull it apart to just eat the chocolate.

She is Katelyn’s shadow and biggest fan. Some days she just follows her around, copying her every move.

She loves giving hugs and kisses but just as much she will adamantly proclaim “no kisses!” or “that’s enough!”
Lately she’s been dragging around one of Katelyn’s baby dolls and having fun pretending. She loves to “make” broccoli and ice cream and bring it to share with us. This is followed by everyone enjoying a nom-nom-nom session until she feels the need to make more.

Abby is the biggest jumping bean if there ever was one. She insists on jumping off of every curb and if by chance she forgets, well we have a re-do. My favorite is when she pretends to be a frog and gets down to the ground and as she jumps says, “eee-ribbit.”

She loves broccoli, chocolate milk, chocolate chips, and would die if apple sauce in a pouch didn’t exist. She will try most things but will always turn her nose up at cheese.

Our little Abby is as usual, noisy. She’s a gabber for sure. She says silly things in silly ways and she knows she’s silly.

Her hair is curly and blond and she sports some pretty blue eyes. However, I don’t know that any of those will last. Her hair is growing in straighter and darker already.

I got a new camera a few weeks ago. Just in time to capture this money shot of our rambunctious two year old.

So happy birthday to our Abbers.
