Sweet, happy, intelligent little Annika turned two on March 7th. She's been acting two for some time, so it wasn't one of those I-can't-believe-she's-2 feelings. Andy put together a party and invited his cousins and my sister and me to his Aunt Marie's. It was quite the turn out and I was amazed at how well all the kids seemed to do. Marie did pretty well too considering how many people, big and little, were stuffed into her living room. Caleb and Annika played well with their second cousins and Marie is super good with kids and had lots of little activities for them. It was really fun.
Sorry, a bunch of these are redundant and not cropped very well. But here they are! :)
I wanted to write a post about all the cute things she does and I've thought about it in my head but now that I'm writing this post I can't think of them. I will start to write them down and make an addendum to this post later. But here are a few:
-Lately she's into protecting and comforting and she'll come up and hug me and tell me she's keeping me safe. Especially if Caleb's acting a little crazy or if we trip or something.
-She's very assertive about what she wants: 'Me want ___. Me no want ____"
-She loves to draw with sidewalk chalk
-She knows she's pretty, smart, and loved. May she always keep that attitude.
-She gets really naughty when she's tired.
-She loves to help and is always trying to help clean, set the table, carry things, find things (she knows where everything is!!), and will proudly proclaim, "Me helping" or "Me cleaning"
