Happy Birthday to Me!


  • I turned 2 years old on Saturday! Mommy and Daddy had celebrations for me all weekend.
  • On Friday, Mommy invited some of my friends to the Fun Fort at Paulus' Farm Market. We had a great time. There was a soybean and corn kernel box (instead of sand) to play in. There was a bean bag toss, hay slide, hay tunnel, hay maze, and my favorite a table with crayons and pictures to color. I think all of my friends had alot of fun. Then we came back to my house and had lunch and cupcakes. I also got some fun "prizes". (Mommy calls them presents.)
  • Saturday morning when I woke up, there were about 20 balloons on my bedroom floor and streamers hanging off of my ceiling fan. I got a huge smile on my face. The first thing I did was run through the balloons. It was so much fun. Then we went downstairs and I got to open more prizes!
  • On Saturday after my nap, we went to Daddy's old school. We went through a museam with all kinds of animals in it. Mommy wanted me to touch a live snake, but there was no way that I was going to do that. Then we went down to a parking lot where they were having a carnival. I got Elmo painted on my cheek. I also watched some kids come down a big slide. It was fun to watch them since the slide was too big for me.
  • On Sunday, we went to church for Ee baby dedication. Then after lunch, all of my family came to my house for ice cream cake. They also brought me prizes! I am a blessed girl to receive all of the prizes that I got.
  • Yesterday, I went to the doctor for my 2-year check up. I am 31-inches tall and 21.12 pounds, which puts me in the -3 percentile. As everyone says, I am just petite!

Hair Cut

(This is me eating lunch after my haircut)
All week Mommy has been telling me that I am getting my haircut soon. She said that the lady would make my hair wet and the go ch, ch, ch (with scissor motions) and that I would have to sit still.

Well today was the day!

We went in. I didn't want to sit on that big chair all by myself so I sat on Mommy's lap. Mommy said if I was a good girl that I could get a new ball when I was done. I sat there like a brave little girl. The lady, Miss Susan, made my hair wet just like Mommy said, then she started cutting my hair.

The hair fell on my lap and on Mommy. I didn't like that. Miss Susan and Mommy tried to show me how to blow it off or brush it off, but I didn't want any part of that. I couldn't believe it - all that hair. I really don't like hair on me so then I just decided that I had enough and tried to get down. Mommy held me tight so I couldn't. I guess the hair cut was a good idea, because now my hair doesn't get in my eyes.

I barely cried so I did get not 1, but 4 new balls!!!
