-You know most of your colors (your favorites are pink and purple) and you can pretty well count up to 10. You know a lot of shapes and your favorite one is a circle.
-You love reading books! You can sit quietly by yourself for a good long time leafing through books.
-You're such a little fashionista - you love to pick out your own necklaces, shoes, and sunglasses to wear and no bag is safe from being toted away by you.
-It seems like suddenly you're talking all the time and in complete sentences, too. However, your favorite phrase seems to be "my do it!" as in "Don't you dare help me - I will do this myself!"
-You love your older brother ("Show-nee"), there is no doubt about that. You are always trying to take care of Sean (bringing him snacks and drinks) while simultaneously trying to keep up with him. Whatever he does, you happily copycat, for better or worse :-)
-You're such a good eater - there aren't many foods that you don't like (onions are the only thing coming to mind right now). Whenever I sit down to eat, you always ask sweetly, "My have some?" Your favorite foods right now are yogurt (any flavor), craisins, Kix cereal, and cheese. We got some (Florida) blueberries the other day as a treat and you gobbled them right up!
-You still get your paci ("Gacki") at night. Most everyday you go from breakfast until bedtime without it and you don't really seem to miss it unless you get shy or frustrated - and then you look for your Gacki.
-You love music! You love to sing and you love to dance! Anytime a song is playing, you start moving your little hips and hum along. Your favorite songs right now are the ABC song and Happy Birthday :-)
You had a good birthday on Monday, starting with Seany gently waking you up by waving his noisy fighter jet over your crib. As soon as you were up and about, Sean gave you a BIG birthday hug and kiss and told you that you're the "best little girl ever." Aww.
Soon you were dressed up in your birthday outfit and it was time for your two-year-old photos with Winnie!

You had a wonderful day at school, your friends made you a card that was bigger than you! At afternoon snack, the teachers brought Sean to your class and everyone sang "Happy Birthday" to you and you all dug into chocolate cupcakes with pink frosting and sprinkles - yum!
At home, we had a big dinner of blueberry pancakes followed by - another cupcake!
Happy Birthday, Clare!
