I just can't believe that my baby girl is 2 years old!!!! We had a family birthday party with cousins, Aunties, and all 3 sets of Grandparents! Elise had a blast and knew that she was the light of the party!
She even sang "Happy Birthday" to herself and loved blowing out her candles.
She was vibrating with excitement while opening her presents too :-)
Very hard to believe 2 years has gone by since that little munchkin arrived...
At 2 years old Elise is quite the little character. She is very snuggly and needs several quiet cuddles throughout the day which I LOVE!!!! She is a soo soo addict like her big sister was and I am sure we will have a bit of a hard time getting it away from her.
She is small for her age but man is her personality MIGHTY! She can be a little bit shy in crowds or around new people but she does not let her sister or other kids push her around. She stands up for herself and will talk back to her sister any chance she can get.
She is quite an independent player which is very different from her sister. Sophia has always had to be engaged at all times with people. Elly will find something she wants to play with and spend quiet time on her own just playing. It is very nice :-)
She remains an excellent sleeper averaging 12-13 hrs of sleep a night. We literally just have to mention bed time and she will head in that direction on her own!
She is a very bright little girl too. Talking in 5-6 word sentences by 2 years old, trying to count, singing songs and continues to rock potty training!
She has the best facial expressions and can easily get her way by just blinking her big blue eyes or flashing her giant dimples. She knows she's cute and it is working for her right now!!!
I LOVE her to bits and pieces and am so enjoying being her Mama and watching her grow up. I would like time to slow down just a little bit though...
