More Birthday Fun

 "Hey!  Don't take my present!"  E doesn't like to open gifts.  She wants to keep them in the wrapping paper.  B was so excited about the Tinker Bell he got for E.

 She loved it!

 S was excited about the pink car he picked out for E!  She liked it too, but he did most of the playing with it.

 And her own little chair!  She was in heaven and the boys each wanted several turns in the little chair too!

So, baby E is 2 years old and she is the cutest little woman in the world.  She follows me everywhere all day long and wants to do whatever I'm doing.  She helps with dishes, laundry, sweeping, mopping, brushing her hair (naturally right after I finished fixing it so all the bows and pony tails get pulled out and look a mess!)  She's all about Papa and wants to snuggle him all the time and pretends to talk to him and Grandma and Grandpa on the phone all the time.  She LOVES books, but interestingly enough not picture books.  If she has a picture book she points to the word and says "what's that?"  She will sit for 30 minutes at a time going through all of my books just looking and looking at the words.  E loves her big brothers and any time anyone is sad or sick she is who they go to for comfort.  Comfort is her job.  She will be happily doing something and the second she hears crying she gets right up and goes searching for the one crying then snuggles and hugs and pats them until they stop--even if they're crying because they're in time-out for hurting her!  She loves to play with other kids and she loves to go "bye bye."  She is practicing talking a lot lately.  I understand her, the average person probably wouldn't.  She has done number 2 in the toilet twice now.  Purple is her favorite color, but she likes pink and yellow too.  She loves all the princess Barbie dolls--especially Belle, sitting in little chairs, pretending to drive cars, playing the piano and playing on my phone and keeps trying to down load apps.  She likes to eat carefully with a spoon and fork and if she gets messy she asks for a towel and cleans herself up.  She's a perfect little princess!
