2 & half years old.

Oh my, Miss Sutton! You are two and a half years old. I'm trying not to think about it too much or I'll cry. You're growing up so fast and before I know it you'll be 3! I told Brian the other night that I feel like fall is just starting to come into the air (after which we had a debate about when fall starts) and that I'm usually excited about it. I'm not excited about it this year because it makes me think that you and are just getting older. Can you imagine me in 3 years when you start kindergarten? I am trying to take time and reflection to experience and enjoy everything about you because I know time will go by fast.

So, at 2 1/2 you....

  • Wear 3T & 4T clothes, size 8 shoes, and weigh around 30 pounds and is 39 inches tall.
  • Have the cutest brown wavy and curly hair and pretty pouty lips
  • Completely potty-trained during the day.
  • A great eater and is always hungry, will eat just about anything, but of course mostly a few toddler-approved options like chicken patties and macaroni and cheese. You eat vegetables like broccoli, sweet potatoes, and peas. You eat 3 square meals and two snacks a day.
  • Still loooooves: Shoes, bah bah (lamb chops), and your baby dolls. You always take them in the car. You love to put them in "time out" when they have been bad. And tell them you love them.
  • (speaking of telling) You talk up a storm and have a great vocabulary. You remember words you've only heard once or twice and it surprises me; some of those surprise words are "coyote," "bandaid," and "triceratops"
  • You love to read books; you have about 200 of them and your current favorites are Fancy Nancy and the Posh Puppy, Good Night mood…actually you can read the entire book to me!
  • I could go on... and on...
I am uploading this video so I can remember your sweet 2 1/2 year old voice. This was taken last night after we came from Roy & Autumn's. They are so generous and gave us a ton of goodies for our freezer.

Wings Over Houston!

On Brian's flight to Las Vegas he sat next to the air traffic controller of "Wings Over Houston". Bruce was so kind to send us ticket to this years show. It was a beautiful day, and the show was amazing.

Halloween Crafting

Saturday was a blast! Sutton rode her bike...she is so fast! It is one of her favorite things to do! We also got to spend some time with our great neighbors and Sutton's good friend Madeline. Sunday was a rainy day so we stayed inside and crafted up lots goodies.

Sutton homework project was to decorate the pumpkin... I asked her, What do you like about Halloween?" her answer, candy, bubbles, & trick
or treat. So that is what she crafted her pumpkin with... candy wrappers, the pom pom was the closes thing I could find that resembled bubbles. She did a beautiful job!

While Sutton was busy doing her "homework project" I crafted the Boo wreath. The hardest part was remembering how to make a spiderweb.

Hope everyone had a great weekend.

OX,
Aimee
