24 Months...

TWO!!

Emma Hill you are TWO YEARS OLD!  I seriously cannot believe it.  I feel like you have always been a part of our family, but at the same time I feel like these have been the fastest two years yet.  I am really beginning to understand what people always say..."The days are long but the years are short"  This is true.  So true!

 

A few things to note about you at this age:

You are becoming more and more shy in public.  You warm up pretty quickly to people, but you almost always hide behind my legs around strangers.

 

You run all the time and proudly say "I fast!"

You watch every.single.thing your brother does and you want to do everything he does!  I think this has helped you become more independent at such a young age.

You are a great eater in that you love to eat, but you are hit and miss on what your favorite foods are.  I  know that anything unhealthy will always be a hit, as well as any kind of fruit!  You love strawberries, bananas, grapes, blueberries, oranges...really all fruits!

You love shoes and are always trying them on.  I think I put this in a previous post as well!

 

You like holding hands...even with older boys :)  When we went to the McWayne Center with the Welsh's you held Asher's hand most of the day!

You are beginning to get in to baby dolls.  You love pushing them in strollers, feeding them, bathing them, really anything to mimic being a mom.  I hope and pray that the Lord will bless you with children one day because I think you will be a fantastic Mommy!

You are not a huge tv fan - it will hold your attention for maybe 10 minutes max.  You do, however, LOVE the phone.  You can navigate it as well as anyone and you love looking at pictures and videos of our family.

 

You love washing your hands.  I remember Watson being the exact same at your age.  I have clean babies :)

 

You are becoming more girly every day!  You are starting to get into jewelry, dresses, shoes (as I already said).  I love seeing this in you :)

You love going to church and visiting daddy's office.  Especially when you get to see "Miss Arrdra" and get a piece of candy!

Emma Lou, WE LOVE YOU!!
