So here we go, to sum up the months leading up to your 2nd birthday with how you've grown & pics!! By the way, happy 2 years & 2 months of life!

It's been quite an enjoyable ride for me thus far, and I look forward to what's next!!
19 months:
-doing forward rolls now on your own
-you're finally saying "Agua" on your own now, your first Spanish word!!!
-you say "cheese" when we take a picture
-daddy taught you how to say the word "shoe" one night when he was taking off your shoes
-you're learning to say "hola" but you don't have it down perfect yet
-when you're done eating, you usually don't say "done" anymore but begin to do this silly thing where you close your eyes and shake your head back and forth while saying "no" in a whispered voice. It's pretty cute!
-you're becoming a little gymnast and doing forward rolls!!!
20 months:
-you pick up shoes and try to put them on people's feet while saying "shoe"
-you know to take my thumb to try and unlock my phone
-you bring your diapers and wipes to me when you need a diaper change now!!
-you know how to take pictures and videos of things now!
-you've learned your 2nd Spanish word... "mas" which comes in handy when asking for more food.
-you try to say "phone" but it comes out a little slurred at times. You know exactly what the phone is and point and refer to it when it's out or lights up.
21 months:
-you peed on the potty for the first time!!
-you say "shhhhh" to babies who cry, or dogs who bark
-you put your socks on yourself!!
-you're obsessed with buckling things: high chair, car seat, stroller clips!
22 months:
-you say "p-mo!" Meaning preemo!
-you finally say "mommy"
-you're finally able to put your shoes back on yourself, which helps since you LOVE taking them off
-you say words like "sit, dance, snack, hands"
23 months:
-1 month before your 2nd bday, you said to daddy and I "poo-poo" and we asked if you had to go potty and you nodded yes. We asked if you had to poo-poo and you nodded no. We asked if you had to pee-pee and you nodded yes. I took you upstairs and by the time we got there, the diaper was warm. So happy that you're vocalizing your need to use the bathroom, and you understand what #1 and #2 are!! Go baby!!!
-the vocalizing of needing to go potty has only gotten more clear... You begun to potty train yourself! So proud of you for telling me when you need to pee-pee so that we can go in the potty a good portion of the time!!
-love when you walk up to me and give me a kiss and tell me that you love me by saying "love shoo!"
-you are learning to say sorry and although you don't always like it, you do a good job at it most days.
-you really are getting more of a personality when it comes to growing up. You're sweet and funny, yet you can be stubborn when I ask you to do something. You can make a complete stranger laugh half way across the room just by a smile, yet be terrified and won't want to say hi to someone we introduce you too. It's so funny watching the little changes occur as you're growing and maturing into a little girl!
-you now will initiate prays yourself and say "let's pray" before a meal, or grab your baby dolls hand, say some babbling as if you're praying, and then shout "amen!" Too cute!
-favorite song is your abcs!!
You're 2 now, and as you say "I'm two!" and hold up the number 2! It's quite precious to see as you love telling others the exciting news! I grow more in love with you everyday my sweet girl, in watching you become such an amazing little girl, and so joyful for all to see. I truly don't understand how God was so gracious to give me such an amazing gift, YOU! I love you more than you'll ever know babygirl!
Love,
Mama
