2 Years Old!

*I wrote this back on Lilian's birthday (11.05) but due to computer malfunctions over the years I had to go get some pictures off of my myspace. I just didn't have the time that night and got busy with work and holiday season....so here it is, a month and five days later haha.*

Can you believe my sweet little Lilibug is 2?? It just seems like yesterday I gave birth to a perfectly healthy 7lb 2 oz, 20 1/4 inch long beautiful baby girl. That baby girl is now 25lbs (skinny minnie!) and around 33inches tall. Her 2 year well-baby check up is the 9th so we'll get exact measurements then (*edit: they didn't write them down for me....jerks). She's an amazing little thing. She has a boot fetish. My cousin got her these cute little rain boots and she hates having to take them off. So for her birthday, I got her a pair and Adam's mom got her a pair from this really cute shoe store in the mall here. She loves them. She loves movies. I hate to have the TV constantly on for her, but you know what? She isn't watching it all day. She'll get up, go play, come back and watch a little, go do something else then come back again. She loves Caillou, Finding Nemo, Cars and Beauty and the Beast. She still loves her baths, she's finally learned to roll onto her tummy and "swim" or blow bubbles. We are still working on potty training. There are less and less accidents and soon I think we can brave public with no diaper. It's a scary thought really, but it has to be done. I'm not afraid of having an accident while out and about, but more of how many? I wonder if I can fit her dresser in my trunk? Hopefully she'll do better than I'm anticipating. Her vocab is finally starting to expand. She was stuck on just a few words for a while there. She calls herself "baby" lol. "Baby joo" to let us know she wants her juice..."Baby boo" for wanting her boots haha. She doesn't say the last syllable for most words yet so it's still a guessing game to figure out what some of the stuff she is saying really means. She's also starting to figure out different names for family members, and knowing who is who. My mom likes to be called Meme (French for grandma) so when Adam's mom was visiting she though that was Meme too, but we were trying to call her grandma, or something else. She does know that my dad is Papa and my step-mom is Gigi though. All our friends are "E.E." (auntie) or "O.O." (uncle)...actually, its not just our friends. Its anyone really. I've had a few ladies at the PX or wherever we are say "hi" to her and she responds with "hi E.E." lol. She can tell you what a dog, cat, cow, monkey, monster, car, and bee says. She can do goat/sheep and duck with some help.As I'm sure you know by now, Adam is home. He made it home a week ago and I'm so thankful that so far, he has been home for her birth and both birthdays! It was the cutest thing when he got home too. It was about 4 in the morning so I woke her up. Adam came in through the kitchen door and she came into the kitchen, looked at him and said "hi Dada" like he hadn't been gone. Then she started to turn and walk back to the living room, realized she hadn't seen him in 2 months and turned back around, yelled "Hi Dada!" and ran to him. And he thought she wouldn't remember him! She loves her Dada though. And her Meme. Its pretty much "screw you mom" already haha. Oh well, my mom can enjoy it while she can, she leaves to live with her sister in Arizona on Monday.
