Addie Monroe - 32 Months

Addie Girl,
Your vocabulary has completely exploded in the past few months, the descriptive words that have come out of your mouth (like "huge", "steep", "smallest", "permanently", "enjoying") make our jaws hit the floor! You are our smart little sponge! The other day you heard the garbage truck outside and it was really loud and you thought it was thunder and you came into the bathroom and announced to me that "a storm was forming." You are two years old and a meteorologist in training!

The weather has been gorgeous and you are really enjoying our almost daily trips to the playground. You aren't scare of anything and you jump/climb/slide on everything there! You also like to walk along the curb around the park and balance on it. You explore in the little patch of woods and bring me and bubba all kinds of leaves and pinecones. Recently you've decided you like to ride in the back seat of the stroller instead of the front, so you get a change of scenery on our walks!

You have become quite my little assistant in the kitchen. Anytime you see me cooking you tell me you want to help and you really love to stir up eggs and brownie mix and add spices to our dinners. You stand on your little white stool at the island and even crack eggs for me! Its fun to have your company in the kitchen and you take such pride in the food you help me prepare.

Lately you haven't wanted to anything without your little brother. You ask him to join you in the bathtub and playing outside and watching movies on the iPad. You even ask me to bring him in your room so he can "jump" on your bed with you. I love to watch you bonding with him. When he is napping, you always ask where he is and when he starts crying you are first to go comfort him and say "You ok bubba?" You have such a sweet little heart!

Your favorite movies right now are Beauty & The Beast, Princess & The Frog, Up and Barbie's Mermaid Tale. Your favorite TV show continues to be Little Einsteins. You still hold a place in your heart for Mickey & Minnie. Daddy and I took you to Mickey's Music Festival and you loved it until you put your hands over your ears and said it was "too loud" and you wanted to go home!

Chocolate remins your favorite treat and your favorite dinner right now is pizza. You want to eat EVERYTHING with ketchup, even your crackers!

It won't be long until you are 3 and even more of your "baby-ness" will slip away, so we are soaking it all up while we can.

Love you Sissy,
Mamma & Daddy
