Hot Dog, I'M TWO

I am TWO YEARS OLD today!!! What a big boy I am!!! We are having ice cream cake this afternoon, it is the highlight of my day. Well, it comes second to blowing out the candles. Daddy won't be home until later this week, so we are just eating cake today. When he comes home we are having a party!!
For those that haven't seen me in a long time, (or have never met me) I have gotten much bigger! To let you know what a BIG BOY I am, here are 24 things that I have learned since my first birthday:
1. I am a walking, running, jumping ball of energy
2. I have a vocabulary of over 100 words and can speak in clear sentences.
3. I can eat my meals with a fork and a spoon.
4. I can brush my teeth and my hair all by myself.
5. I am an AMAZING dancer! I can immediately pick up any dance move shown to me.
6. "NO" is suprisingly not my favorite word, but I say it often.
7. I still love Mickey the best, but The Backyardigans & Dora are a close second.
8. I can count to 10 all by myself.
9. I know my letters A-J.
10. I know all the names of colors, but haven't mastered matching the word with the right color.
11. I can climb ladders and go down slides by myself.
12. Please & Thank You & Excuse Me are said many times a day.
13. I am not scared of the grass anymore. I walk on it all by myself now.
14. I have a cat named Callie & I am VERY GENTLE with her. I love her very much.
15. I sleep in a big boy, queen sized bed. No more crib for me!!
16. I love to help Mommy clean. I'm a good duster and love to sweep the floor.
17. I like to play with other children.
18. My favorite song is "3 Little Birds" by Bob Marley & "Bad Romance" by Lady Gaga.
19. I love to talk to Daddy on the phone every day when he's at work.
20. My hair is light brown now. When I was 1, it was blonde.
21. I like to try new things. My newest thing I tried was playdoh. I love it!
22. I know how to go potty on the froggy potty. (not consistently, we aren't potty training yet)
23. I can clean my room and put everything back in its correct place.
24. I am very good listener and follow directions very well.

I can't wait to see what exciting things this year holds for me! I am happy to be TWO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
