Conversations with our 2 year old

Your daddy and I decided to keep a running log of the sweet, hilarious, inquisitive, remarkable, silly things you say as you're two and learning about the world and how to have conversations.

May 3, 2016 On your 2nd birthday, "Happy burtday to you, hap burtday to youuuuuuu!" You wanted us to sing to you over and over and over again. When I accidentally gave you trick candles at your birthday party, you were quite distraught as you worked so hard to blow them out. 😊

May 5, 2016- "No Halen I do not need you to eat my boogers," said daddy.

May 23, 2016- When meeting your baby sister for the first time: "I hold it!" "Baby!" "Mine." "Toesies!" When Henley started to cry: "Baby what happened?" When mommy started nursing Henley, Halen lifted her shirt and said, "My milk."

May 27, 2016 At bedtime you kicked daddy out of your room, "Out!" And pointed toward the door.

May 27, 2016: When hanging out in the living room you said, "Jack and Kenzie, play."
When saying prayers I asked you if we should add anyone else, "Jack and Kenzie."

May 29, 2016: You got your first hair trim by YaYa and when the hair fell on the table she said, "My hair! My hair!" But you did very good, you were calm and still.

June 4, 2016: You ran into the living room grabbed the Boppy, sat on the stairs with it on her lap and said, "Hold it." (About holding her sister.) Then once I places Henley on the Boppy, if Henley fussed Halen would say, "It's ooook baby, it's oooook." And rub Henley's chest. (Just so sweet!)

June 16, 2016: When Henley would cry, I would ask Halen what Henley needed and Halen would say, "Milk." 😊

June 20, 2016: You got a bloody nose and said, "My nose, nose!"

June 26, 2016: You were bit by mosquitoes and said, "No no buzzy!" She did not like being bit by a bug.

July 2, 2016: You're putting on your swim suit and while naked you wiggle your bum bum and say, "I naked naked, I naked naked."

July 5, 2016: You say things backwards or just the back half of a phrase, for example, I'll say, "I love you Halen." And you respond with, "Too!"

August 9, 2016: You were upset by something and said, "I want my Kenzie." So so so sweet.

August 10, 2016: You wanted to hold Henley on the couch, I put her in your lap and you said, "Mommy, I lub her I lub her I lub her." My heart about melted.

August 10, 2016- When we do something you ask you've started saying, "Thank you so much!" It's quite cute.

August 13, 2016- You were hugging me and said, "Mommy you're my best friend me." My heart just swelled. I love being your best friend baby girl.

August 14, 2016- Lately you have been saying, "Mommy I neeeeeeed you!" Or "Daddy, I need you!" It's so sweet.

August 17, 2016: We're watching the Rio Olympics gymnastics floor routine and you were watching and Aly Raismann finished and you clap your hands and say, "Great Job, great job!" 😊 It was hilarious & so sweet.

September 1, 2016: We were discussing snack options, and I said, "Halen how about some cheese?" You responded with, "Okay I'll have some cheese." Then you paused for. moment and said, "Actually I want some raisins." I was shocked by your vocabulary! And
 you used the word correctly! You're growing up so much!

September 14, 2016: We were getting ready for a bath and you found daddy's goggles and you called them, "Haggles." ☺️ Makes me think of Harry Potter.

September 16, 2016: We were getting you ready for pre-school and we put on your new Nike shoes and you said, "They have a swoosh!"


September 20, 2016: We were getting ready for bed and you started to sing, "I love my mommy, I love my daddy, I love my sister, I love my family!" You sang this over and over and over. So sweet and we love it!

It was pretty adorable.

October 4, 2016: You learned a scripture at church with the sign language to go with it. You love saying it and doing the hand motions, "God (point overhead) made (pound your fists on top of each other) the world (make a big cure with your arms) and everything in it (reach send out wide)!" You're so proud when you say it! So so sweet!

October 28, 2016: You like to be carried lately and you'll say, "Daddy I want up here." So cute.

November 25, 2016: Daddy gave you a mini pecan pie to eat and you didn't want it, you told daddy to eat it and when daddy did you said, "Daddy I smell your breath." You stuck your nose in daddy's mouth and then said, "Your pie in there." It was pretty funny.

December 11, 2016: We went to Great Wolf Lodge as a start to a new family winter tradition. And in the middle of the night you lost your num num and whispered to daddy, "Daddy, I don't know where is my num num is?" So sweet that you would whisper. 😍

January 17, 2017: We were getting ready for bed, you were cuddled with daddy and I said, "Daddy is my favorite." And you quickly added, "Daddy is my favorite too." And you snuggled closer. ❤️ Right after that daddy suggested you go peepee on the potty and watch, you said, "That sounds fine!" It was pretty funny. You sounded so grown up.

January 23, 2017: You looked straight at daddy and said, "Daddy, that's diculous!" I think you'd heard mommy say ridiculous before... Haha. Then a few minutes later you said, "Daddy, that's funky." Haha! Mommy has to be careful what she says.

January 30, 2017: We want to the park after church and you were on the swing. You are learning to propel yourself and you'd say, "Back and foreth, back and foreth." Moving your legs to help push yourself on the swing. Just so cute.

February 13, 2017: We were up super early because you had a slight fever and I suggested we close our eyes, you said, "We just need to watch for a little bit while." So cute. So we snuggled and watched Goldie & Bear. ❤️

February 18, 2017: I was tucking you into bed and you wouldn't let me kiss you and I said, "Halen I made you, I made this bum bum and this tummy."

March 22, 2017: We were driving home from swim class and you said, "Jesus was talking to us." And daddy and I asked you to tell us more. You said, "Jesus had all the bread and all the fishes and he shared with all the people." Daddy and I stared at each other and  were almost brought to tears by how profound what you said was. 😍

March 28, 2017: Your prayer tonight- "Thank you for Claire. Thank you for Uncle Matt. Thank you for Piper. Thank you for birthday cake. Thank you for Doc McStuffins. Thank you for mommy. Thank you for my daddy. Thank you for sister. Amen." I love hearing your little prayers. <3

April 20, 2017: You have really loved your babies lately and you give th all sorts of fun names like, "Luce, and "Jensa" it's so sweet. To seeing you use your imagination, creativity and pretending.

Daddy went to bad and as he left you put your mouth up to the doorknob, knocked on the door and said, "Do you wanna build a snowman, come on let's go and play. We used to best buddies but now we're not, I wish you would tell me why." It was the cutest thing ever. I wish I got it on video.
