Guess who is 21/2 today





Yep. Makayla is 2 1/2 today which means that in 6 months, we will be celebrating her 3rd birthday. Once again, it has come way to fast. I get a lot of joy watching her everyday even though some days can be rough with a 2 year old. These bad days are made up for with all the good times her and I share together. She makes me laugh every day and amazes me with the things she does and what she remembers.
Some of the things she has accomplished so far are.......

She knows all of her colors and can count 1-10 (Although she does seem to always skip the number 3). Not sure why. She knows the presidents name and says it pretty dang cute if I might add. She knows the name of pretty much any animal there is, not just the basic ones. She can say her ABC's (not perfect of course) but she does pretty well. She is always doing or saying something that amazes Brian and I.

Last year when she was 1 1/2, we bought here a kitchen. This year, Daddy got her a Dream Dazzlers Jeep that is motorized. She loves it so far. She has been practicing around the house until the weather gets nice enough to let her loose in the back yard. I think she will have a blast with it this summer and being outside will help with the wall damage she is causing. She hasn't quite got that whole "steering" thing down yet.
