Well this post is very overdue but I didn't want to forget about it. My little New Fish is so adorable and I need to record some things about what she is like at two years old. She is so cute that sometimes I frequently have to pick her up and kiss her because that is the only possible reaction. She can smile at you and make your heart sing.
• She is LOUD. She talks loud, screams loud, cries loud, laughs loud etc. She may be training to be an opera star because this kid has a serious set of lungs.
• She is very imaginative and is always talking about a "mean mouse" and "nice bear" who are always running around our house and up to something. She blames everything on a dinosaur who also freely roams our house.
• She is crazy stubborn. I didn't know this level of stubbornness existed and I come from a long line of stubborn people.
• She loves to boss people around.
• Wild woman- she runs around like a maniac and has plenty of energy
• She adores all things princess. She calls all of the princes "Daddy." She LOVES her Daddy.
• She refers to herself as either Bub or Princess Bubby. She knows her name but prefers Bub.
• She likes to held a lot still and she always promises to stay my baby.
• She pretends to be a frog frequently. She hops around the house ribbeting.
• She loves books and music. She can't hear music without dancing. Her favorite songs are: Row row row your boat, itsy bitsy spider, I'm So Glad When Daddy Comes Home and I'm A Child Of God.
• She has a very large vocabulary and she talks nonstop all day long. She pops out of doors and says "HELLO!" all the time and scares people. She popped out of a locker after swimming and nearly gave some poor woman a hear attack the other day.
• She asks to "Hello" (call on the phone) people all day long. She loves to talk to her grandparents.
• She gives wonderful hugs and squeezes your neck extra tight.
• She calls Ariel, the little mermaid "Princess Sharky."
• She loves her best friend "Little Buddy" and all of Red Fish's friends.
• Her favorite art projects include glue. She spends hours drawing with markers and has a knack for coloring her whole face when I look away for thirty seconds. Her face is usually dirty from one escapade or another.
• She says "wub you" (love you) in a really sweet soft voice.
• She loves her swimming lessons and runs to the side of the pool to jump in when it is her turn.
• She is all of her nursery leaders favorite because she is apparently extra sweet in church.
• She is always concerned about where her sister is and if she is alright. She wants to do everything Red Fish does.
• She thinks it's funny to call me by my first name.
• She loves all things sugary and sweet but doesn't like to eat real food. She pretty much survives off of whole wheat waffles, chicken nuggets and "Daddy cereal"- Quaker oatmeal squares.
• When she eats something she likes she says: "oooooooh I YIKE it."
• She knows all of her colors, animals, most of her shapes and a lot of letters. She is starting to count. Most of these tricks are picked up from listening to Red Fish.
I thought that Skydiving would be terrifying. I just wanted to do it once, basically to say that I had. Instead I found it totally exhilerating. I loved it. The only really scary part was the actual jump out of the plane and those first few seconds when we were spinning around in the air. After that the jump was amazing and as soon as the parachute opens it is just peaceful and beautiful. Amazing.
