Aysia, you have the sweetest singing voice! And you love to sing...
You listen to songs carefully, and then start singing them as soon as you know some of the phrases. Most of the words are wrong at first, but you get the sounds right, and keep listening and singing. You have a great feel for the tones, and can really carry a nice tune (unlike your mom!!). This morning you were singing Humpty Dumpty and it sounded so sweet!
I love that you sing!

Aysia the girly-girl
Well, maybe not completely, but we went to a bday party yesterday at a beauty salon, and you got hair glitter, a tiarra, a heart on your cheek, and your nails done! Yellow polish with glitter. you sat there s cute with your hands out an let them paint your nails. i was so surprised. It was adorable! You really had a good time at the party, and I thought it would be too old for you. Silly me!
You also had a great time playing with all the older girls afterwards at the house. It was nice to see you interacting and doing so well with them. A little tussling, but nothing too bad.

Tyler- a little peek
I went to the doctor today and got an ultrasound - got to peek in on you. Although because you're so big now, it's hard to see you. The doc had to point out your head, heart, legs, etc. But I could see your heart beating, and I can feel you moving all the time. :)
Aysia high tech!
So, this morning as we were getting ready to leave, you were playing with my ipad. Of course, you totally know how to use the icons, get to where you want, play videos, etc. but you also know how to play Angry Birds. It's so funny! And you cleared several levels this morning. You are too funny!

Aysia and school
Sigghhh. You have been getting so clingy and upset at school dropoffs lately. Even before moving from toddler to two's, you have not wanted to let me go, heading into a full blow cry-fest, holding onto my legs... the teachers have to pick you up so I can leave. It breaks my heart. :( I hate to leave you but I have to go to work.
I wonder if it's the new baby coming that's making you insecure? Or maybe just this age? Some of the other moms say the same thing, so I'm hoping it's just a phase.
Meanwhile, I absolutely love your new two's teacher. She is very motivated and energetic, she also doesn't believe in sugar, juice, etc., and she has a lot of good structure and activities in the class. You also now go to the big playground, and get to go to old town at the end of the day which you LOVE. So I know the school day is a positive thing for you, but the dropoffs are so hard. I hope it gets easier for you

Aysia on the phone
On Saturday, you had your first real phone conversation! And it was with me :) You were with daddy and I called. he put the phone on speaker, and we exchanged about 3 or 4 sentences. Daddy didn't have to prompt you or translate for you. It was pretty cool!

Aysia's 2 year doctor appt
You were great at the doctors! You actually like going to the doctors and want them to look at your eyes, ears, mouth (and toes!). No crying, no squirming, it's great. And it helped this time that there were no shots!
Here are your stats:
Height - 33.5" (50%)
Weight - 28.5 (75%)
Growing right on track and very healthy!
The doctor was very, very impressed with all your talking. She commented about your full sentences, and that you talked about using the potty. You had her laughing! People notice how smart you are pretty quickly, it's really great to see. You are very talkative and very expressive. I love it!
You also had a first in the waiting room. They have a lot of toys there, and you wanted one that another girl was playing with. I told you to say to her - can I have a turn please? You were hesitant, but you did it, very shy-ly, and she said ok and gave you a turn. That was great! And it happened again, I told you to ask, and it worked again. I was very proud of you!

Tyler Update
I had a doctor appointment today and you are measuring on track and heartbeat is a solid 145. Everything is progressing perfectly with the pregnancy. Although my weight gain is really inching up there. I've gained about 28 pounds so far and have 4 weeks to go! Yikes! But you're healthy, and that's what matters most.
Can't wait to meet you!

Aysia and the car seat
Well, every day can't be perfect, can it?
You definitely tried my patience last night, my little one! I came to get you at school, and you were having a good time in the classroom. We bundled you up, and it was freezing and windy out, and I didn't have any mittens for you, just a coat and a hat. So when we were about to go outside, I picked you up so we could get to the car quickly. Mind you, I'm 8 months pg, so I love for you to be independent and walk, it's getting harder and harder to pick you up, but with how cold it was, getting to the car quickly was first priority.
Well, you wanted to walk. You started to throw a tantrum while I was carrying you to the car, but then as I was trying to get you in the car seat, you just wouldn't let me. You squirmed, arched your back and screamed. For 10 minutes. While I stood outside trying to wrangle you into the seat. Oh boy, I wanted scream!!! But I kept my calm, and finally I guess you got tired and I got you in the seat.
You sure have a strong will, little girl!
So later that night, even though you've been preferring to have daddy rock you to sleep, I insisted on doing it so we could have some snuggly, cuddly time together. I love that!

Aysia on New Year's Eve
We had a little party on NYE with your friends Sophia, Cassandra and Emma. I think you had a great time playing with them - in your new kitchen, down in the new playroom... Although it might have been a bit hard for you watching all the kids play with your toys. A few times you grabbed things from them, and had a real hard time sharing. But you're a bit young for that now.
You really enjoyed staying up late with the girls and making an area with blankets and pillows on the floor while we watched the video from your party, and an Elmo movie. The other girls had their teddy bears, so you wanted "munchkin" and that's now become your bedtime teddy, so cute! It's really nice seeing you interact with other kids. You hold your own, and defend what's yours. I like that, as long as it doesn't go too far!
