Happy 2nd Birthday Ellie

Ellie's favorites at 2 years old:
Show: Mickey Mouse Clubhouse
Food: Macaroni & Cheese
Color: "mink"
Song: ABC's which somehow turns into singing Ring around the Rosie
Game: Ring around the Rosie (will do this all day if you let her)
Team: Michigan Wolverines
The latest things she knows: Going on the potty, recognizes shapes (circle, diamond, square, heart, star, triangl), counting to 13, singing most of her abc's, says MICHIGAN! when she's sees the U of M "M", GO BLUE!, jumping, she loves to jump, I'm sure there's a ton I am forgetting
Activities: Playing with her new kitchen, playing outside, slides, dolls, reading books, singing & dancing
Schedule: Wakes up around 8:30am/9am, naps around 2, and goes to bed around 8:30pm/9pm depending on what's going of course, some times later.
Personality: Ellie is very strong willed and knows what she wants, when she wants it. She has lots of energy and talks A LOT! She speaks in sentences sometimes, and repeats everything! She doesn't like people telling her what to do, but if you give her a choice, she is usually okay with that. She seems to exhibit a "leader" personality. She is such a sweetie and loves to give hugs and kisses.

Ellie is going to start "school" tomorrow! Mommy is returning to work so Ellie is off to a great daycare. I'm so excited for her to start and think she will love it.
