Jordan is 2!

I can hardly believe that Jordan is 2 years old. I am amazed at how much she has changed in the last year and especially the last few months! She doesn't look like a baby anymore, she's my little girl now. She does so well with her talking and is pretty good about using her words. She does some signs, but it's just out of habit, she can say all the words very clearly. She loves to "clean-up" all her toys every night and she even does this at daycare (so the teachers tell me). How lucky am I?! She is a pretty good eater most of the time, especially for other people. She can sing her ABC's (she speed sings it haha), count to 12, she can sing a lot of songs: Twinkle Twinkle, You are my Sunshine, No More Monkeys Jumpin on the Bed, Where is Thumbkin, Head Shoulders Knees and Toes, and many others! She is starting to learn shapes and her colors and how to count on her fingers. She has mastered all of her wodden puzzles and is still obsessed with reading books! I'm sure there are many other things I can list, but just not able to think of them all right now.

For Jordan's birthday her Dad and Grandma flew to Anchorage (both were 1st timers!) to spend an entire week spoiling her sweet! I know all 3 of them had a very fun time full of adventure, love and laughter.

On Jordan's actual birthday, I took the day off work and the 4 of us went to our fave breakfast joint: Snow City Cafe. They seriously have the best food ever! And I just love the fun quirky people and environment. Jordan opened a few presents while we were at the restaurant. By the time we were finished it was naptime for Jordan, so we drove home and she opened a few more presents before naptime. After her nap she spent the afternoon with her Dad and Grandma and the 3 of them came to cheer me on at one of my softball games. I brought cupcakes and ice cream to share with everyone and we all sang Happy Birthday to her after the game! She loved it of course since she doesn't get super sweet stuff very often.

A few days after her actual birthday she had her 2 year check up. She is of course right where she is supposed to be! I listed all the stats below and the increase from last year. (She didn't have a 1 year appt, so her last appt was 9 months ago when she was 15 months)

Height: 33.5"/50% - Grew 2"
Weight: 31 lbs 6oz / 90% - Gained 2lbs 6oz

I love my little princess so much! She is growing up to be such a special, wonderful, beautiful, amazing little girl! I am excited to see how she grows in all areas of her life over the next year.

Can you believe how different she looks in 1 year?! She is definitely a little girl now. But I will still continue to call her my baby. My beautfiul baby love!
