Snapshots

I have had a ton of photo shoots lately, so I haven't been so good at taking random pics of the crazies here. I  am trying...here are some of my favorites.

Elaina Turns TWO!!

Two years old. Two, and starting all the fun two year old stuff. You know what I am talking about....tantrums, talking, loud talking, yelling, telling you what she wants, how she wants it and that she wants it now. Yes, those two year old things.
BUT, I love it. I would not change her for the world. She is so fun at two. She is learning so much every day. She is so good. She plays, runs, jumps, laughs, giggles, loves to play "hide and seek" and "duck, duck, goose"- where she is the goose every time! I could play with her all day, but I do love her nap time too!
We recently took down the crib, and put up a toddler bed...to which she won't even consider sleeping in! Yes, she is sleeping in a pack n play. Yep, but she is sleeping, so am I fighting that battle? Um...no! She is so good at going to bed. She tells you when she wants to nap, and never makes a sound once you put her in, unless she is singing. Oh how I love this girl.
Can you tell?!

 For her birthday, we got her this bike. She loves it and wants to ride it all the time! This is her first time on it.

 We had a "little" 2nd birthday gathering for her. It was super fun. I got a little carried away with the fun decorations and food, but so worth it! Thank you, Pinterest!

So fun, this little one. She went to the Dr. for her 2 year check up! She is 29.8 pounds, and 34 inches long. We don't worry about her growth much- she eats what she wants, when she wants, and happily drinks regular milk, now after a year of Silk (my budget is happy about that too!) We are looking forward to many more fun birthdays for this gem. We love her to pieces!
