We've got a 2-year-old on our hands! Ah!
I'm so scared for the "terrible-twos",
especially since Scarlett has been strong-willed and stubborn
for quite a while already.
BUT, she is also the sweetest and happiest little girl I know.
Scarlett's favorite movie is Monsters University,
so I made that her "theme", though I didn't go all-out like I did for her 1st birthday.
I attempted doing "mike wyzowski" cupcakes...
haha meaning green cool whip and oreo creams for the eyeballs.
We had lots of fun at her swim party with all of her new friends in Omaha.
Beckham didn't have as much fun, though ;)
Scarlett's tricks:
-counting to 10, and sometimes up to 15 (rarely in order though)
usually she says "4, 9, 10!"
-summersaults! she's rocking them. And now she's in her first gymnastics class.
Her teacher says she loves the "high" bar. She also loves trying to do the splits.
-Jumping and hopping
-Running: She sprints away from me whenever she gets the chance. And now
loves to find anything that she can get on the opposite side of (car, coffee table, dumpster)
and run around so I can't catch her. She's getting FAST. Drives me nuts.
-Favorite new phrase "No! Stop it! Go away!" Thanks to the little
girl sitting in front of us in church a couple weeks ago...
-Favorite movies: Monsters U, Toy Story, and "Food show" (cloudy with a chance of meatballs)
-Loves "exercising" with mommy and daddy: aka trying to copy the things we do
but eventually giving up and just climbing on top of us and giving hugs
while we're on the ground doing abs.
-Favorite foods: mac and cheese, chicken nuggets, soup, cheese, and grapes.
Oh...and "pops" (lollipops)
-Still not potty trained....we tried working on it and I decided we'd give it a little more time ha.
This picture shows her personality perfectly.
So happy, spunky, and full of life and gusto.
Scarlett is such a sweetheart and adds so much joy to our lives.
Happy 2nd birthday, Ettie girl!!
