Julianne's 2nd Birthday!

Happy Birthday to my little girl, she turned TWO on March 13th! She is so much fun and full of personality, well actually she is becoming more of a challenge, but I guess that comes with every age!. She talks so much and pronounces her words really well. She loves to have books read to her and has started asking But WHHYY momma. She also likes to sing songs like twinkle twinkle little stars, ABC song, Jesus Loves Me, Patty Cake Patty Cake, just to name a few. And she has RECENTLY started to take an interest in the potty; last night during her bath , she said she had to go poop, so I quickly took her out of the tub and sat her on her singing potty and she went pee, I was so proud of her for telling me and waiting to go in the potty, that was a BIG accomplishment! Then just today I put some undies on her in the morning I asked her if she needed to go sit on the potty but was more interested in eating her breakfast, so then she peed in her highchair. But then later in the afternoon I knew she would eventually need to go #2, she usually poops before her nap time(just in case you were wondering :) so I didn't put anything on her and I kept asking her, so I told her I would read her a story while she sat on the potty. I was really into the story reading hoping she was too, so she could go #2 easier and not think about it! And about 2-3 stories later she had a nice surprise for me. I just hope she continues to take an interest in the potty and I have the patience!
Julianne's Stats
25lbs and 33 1/2 inches tall

Julianne had a great time at her Birthday party, she was excited to play with (or next to) her 2 cousins Luke and Will, who live in Northeast, MD, 2 hrs away. The weather was great so we had a cookout after church and then opened presents and enjoyed the Elmo Cupcakes ! We got her a Radio Flyer Trike , it has a handle to push and steer, so she can learn to ride it eventually on her own. She likes to be pushed on it, so I'm looking forward to using it more when the weather gets nicer.
