Her vocabulary consists of at least 100 words she chooses to say on her own. She can mock any word you through at her. In fact we find it to be great fun getting her to repeat words like Massachusetts and Mississippi. Her imagination needs no improvement, her shyness is truly, sweetly authentic, and her comprehension is amazing! If you cannot tell we are incredibly proud of our little Elle.
For the first time Elle brought cupcakes to daycare to celebrate the big day. She reminded me that she had cakes to take to school and wore a special sticker I made her for the big day. I think after going through a few classmates 2nd birthday's she knew what to expect and was extremely excited. The daycare was nice enough to send me these great pictures! Thanks!
We celebrated her big day at our house with family and close friends. It was great fun and Elle really liked it. She opened each gift, loving them, having to be reminded there were others she needed to open before playing with them.
One of her favorite and a huge hit at the party has be Taro Gomi's “Everybody Poops”. It's a great book with pictures of and text explaining how everything that eats, poops. Her expressions were priceless! Still at bed time she was listing off the things that poop and asking about new ones not mentioned in the book.
Imagine if you will, a serious 2 year old asking her Daddy "ducks poop?" and that adoring Daddy, answering seriously, because it is serious, "Yes dear, Ducks do poop too!" I am sure this will speed up the potty training. I made sure to mention the book to daycare, just in case she started to ask the teachers about pooping animals.
At the end of the day, I would have to say Elle enjoyed her cake the most! Perhaps it was the fact it was chocolate or that Mimi made it. Either way, she really loved it and ate it up!
All of her presents were great! Thank you to everyone that helped to make Elle's 2nd birthday so great! What a wonderful 2 years its been, each day more wonderful then the last. We really enjoy our little Elle bug and we are so lucky to have such a great daughter!
