Happy Birthday Lucy!!

Happy Birthday to my Lucy Lou! I can't believe she is already 2! Where oh where did the time go? It was just yesterday she had her sticky uppy hair and was so itty bitty.

We are celebrating Lucy's birthday tomorrow night with our families but we still had a really fun day today with her, although she had no idea what was going on. She just thought we were giving her what she wanted more than usual.

She got to lick the beater from her cake.

I let her open her birthday present of fruit snacks, flouride free toothpaste, and toothbrushes. She loves to eat/suck on toothpaste and I thought I would get her some that was at least safe for her weird habit. We got her other stuff too that weren't grocery items, like large amounts of playdough that she snacked on this morning. Yes.

Then she scored some chocolates from her Nana which totally capped off her day. Some even made them into her mouth. We got her a Happy Meal for dinner which she got to eat while watching Toy Story. Pretty much the best day ever for Lucy.

Lucy is super fun at this age and has so much personality, I often wonder how she fits into such a tiny person. She loves to sing, even when she doesn't know the words, and will sing along at church quite loudly. She loves to bug Isak, its her favorite hobby, and she is really good at driving him crazy. I told Isak Lucy was turning two today and he asked, "does this mean she's going to quit bugging me?". I told him it probably meant she was just going to get better at it.

She likes to count to 10, although she will usually skip some numbers, and mostly does it so she can clap for herself when she's done.

She is not shy at all and LOVES attention. She loves people watching her and telling her she's cute and will perform anytime she can tell she has an audience. One of her favorite things to do is to tell me "you're funnyy" and laugh and repeat this again and again.

Her favorite book is green eggs and ham, which she calls "haamm!hammm!".

She sleeps with her "deedee" (pink, furry blanket) and will crawl up in it when she's tired.

She will often demand to be put in her crib if we don't do it fast enough. That girl, like her momma, loves her sleep and knows when its time to go to bed.

She can be pretty naughty and defiant and gives us her "devil smile" quite often.

She loves to wrestle with Kevin when he gets home from work .

She still sleeps in her crib and has never tried to get out, which is not suprising . She would much rather just yell and have someone come pick her up. Way too much effort to climb out.

She has the prettiest blonde hair and blue eyes. This will be a problem when she gets older.

Anyway, I love her at this age and she is so much fun everyday. I love having a little girl.
