Oh my goodness! Can she really be two already? I wish that I could slow down time. I know that sounds cliche’, but I seriously want to enjoy every second with my kids when they are young and love all the different stages in their development.
I mean, who wouldn’t want this little face to last so much longer?
She is so full of laughter, which just makes me laugh. And she is so dramatic. When she cries, she always does this hand over the mouth to muffle her screams. It’s good because then I don’t have to. 
But seriously, I don’t know where she learned it but it’s been one of those things she done almost from the womb. How cute is that?
Since we’ve had a few days of warmer weather, I’ve allowed her to go outside and play for a little while. She loves riding this big wheel. I think we got this for Logan when he was 2. Best investment in a toy EVER.
She has also figured out the ways of the playground. She loves the slide and will go down it without any help. She also loves the swing. The higher the better. I love that she is such a thrill seeker, but it’s also a little scary as well. She has no fear.
She is our little princess. She loves shoes and almost always has to have a pair on. She won’t take a nap unless she has shoes on. She freaks out if we get in the car and she doesn’t have shoes on. (I wish the rest of my kids were as mindful) She is also very particular sometimes which cracks me up.
She loves getting her hair done. I sit her up on my counter and comb and condition and scrunch, all the while she is brushing her teeth. She loves this little ritual and I really hope that doesn’t change too soon because I love it too.
For her birthday dinner we had spaghetti. She obviously had a good time. She is pretty good about eating what’s put in front of her, but does have her moments of stubborness. Like, she doesn’t like waiting for food to cool. If we tell her it’s hot, that’s it, she’s done. She won’t even try it.
She has started talking a LOT more in just the last month. She’s very bossy. LOL! She loves to say STOP! Mine! and No, no, no, no, bababa dada lada Oh Oh Oh. For example, whenever we’re in the car, Lex will spell words and ask me what they are. He’ll see words on the side of a truck or billboard or whatever. So he’ll spell it out. And immediately Kimber will correct him. “No, no, no, no, bababa dada lada Oh Oh Oh” Apparently she knows the correct way to spell EVERYTHING, and it always consists of at least 3 O’s. She’s so adorable.

Kimber loves to play on my iPhone. She will sometimes come into our room in the morning, climb in bed, snuggle under the covers and then demand the iPhone. So, I got her a laptop of her very own that she can play on. She was very excited to turn 2 and has been practicing doing her two fingers for a month now.
She loves animals. One of her first words was “Shadow” the name of our cat. Even though the devil has a claim to that cat’s soul, Kimber still loves it. She even loves stuffed animals. I knew that a Zui Zui pet would be perfect for her and I was right. She thought it was the coolest thing ever. Fortunately, my mom knew what I was getting and got her some accessories so we could have lots of fun. That is, if we could ever keep the darn thing in it’s enclosure. Everyone wants to hold the hamster instead of letting it do it’s thing.
I got Kimber this Princess castle because it was on major clearance. I love a good deal. She loves it and I love that the other kids love it as well because they will play with Kimber and keep her occupied and out of trouble. (I didn’t get any pictures, but imagine fruity pebbles EVERYWHERE! A brand new whole bottle of clear vanilla poured out on the carpet. I could go one but then I’d have to go ground myself for not watching her.)
It took her awhile but she finally got both of the candles out all by herself. She was so cute. We all cheered when she finished and she looked at us like we were crazy.

My parents brought over some books that my mom found in the basement. Oh boy were my kids excited!
I was pleased that they were all so excited about having new books to read. They are all pretty good readers for their age and they run out of books so fast so this was good for them.
Janette’s been reading pretty much non-stop since then. 
Isn’t that cute?
Love it!
