2.5

Addy is almost two and a half. 

She is adjusting to our new house... she talks about our old house sometimes but she always reminds me that we can't go back to our old house 'cause Olivia lives there now, Mommy." 

She loves the Pinkalicious books.  She got a Pinkalicious book that is actually five books in one and she ALWAYS wants to read it!  You know... that book!  The only time she wants to read is before bed and at naptime.  I love those snuggle moments.

She is all about pretending and loves to have a baby with us everywhere we go.  She still has her same favorites - Julie, Vivi (I love when she calls her "Viv" for short), Katie, Ashley, Maggie.  She changes their names based on our friends' babies we have been around... sometimes Julie might be "Baby Talon" or "Baby Cal" or "Baby Christian."  Her favorite things to pretend are school, drive through/take your order and library/story time.

Her favorite thing is playing outside.  She has finally mastered the tricycle and can go pretty fast on it.  She also loves the cozy coupe that she got from Mackenzie and Slate... she uses it to drive her babies to Publix and CVS.  She has realistic pretend play!

She is still in her crib and she still has a paci when she sleeps - we need to work on changing those two things but I haven't been in a hurry with us moving and all... one adjustment at a time!

She LOVES school and gets really excited on the days that she gets to see Ms. Suzanne, Ms. Martha and Ms. Caroline!   

We definitely have our share of the two's - Addy is strong willed, independent... all the words most parents probably use to describe their two year old... but we often get glimpses of her sweet, playful spirit and that is what I want to remember about this age!
