Emma's Two Year Stats

Emma had her 2 yr check up this morning. She didn't really want to go at first. I reminded her about the last time...when she got both a sticker AND a sucker. Then she said "Dr. Boel is a nice man." After that conversation, she was 100% on board :)

In the waiting room...(second thoughts maybe?)

She is in the 90th percentile for weight (oh my aching back) and 95th percentile for height (she can reach everything now). She is also off the charts in charm and adorability (yeah. its a word, I checked).

She loved standing on the big girl scale (she used to scream).

A recap from her appointment: 1) Loves her doctor 2) No fear of the needle stick 3) Bandaide induced extreme rage (hello terrible 2s) resulted in blood covered Emma, Mommy, and examine room (yeah, I got my copays worth of work today:).

Some notable things about the world's most awesome 2 year old:

1. She sleeps in a big girl bed (and is very proud)

2. Hears everything, remembers everything, and tells everything :)

3. Emmaisms:

a. I need a pinny (penny)...for her Jelly Bean machine.

b. One more (while shaking her index finger)...for another penny for another jelly bean that always turns into two, three, etc.

c. What'd you DO DAISE? You made a MESS! (sometimes legit, sometimes she frames the dog)

d. We'll come back (as in I'll go quietly this time, but we will come back)

e. NO, I DO IT!, STOP IT!!! (and many other pleasantries)

4. She sings the Barney songs as follows:

a. I love me, you love me.......

b. Her favorite song is itsy bitsy spider, old McDonald, and the ABCs. Counts to 11.

c. Her favorite food is pizza and will lie to your face for chocolate milk (as in no I haven't had any yet today)

and sweet #5.......Is beginning to love the potty.....

She is pretty serious about her art....and her potty.

Just discovered "hide and seek"

although she hides in the same place everytime,

tells me where she is hiding,

and thinks she only has to hide her head
(and the award for best actress in acting surprised goes to mommy)
