And my sweet two year old is doing great as a big sister. Sure, there's a little bit of jealousy and possessiveness going on, but who can blame her? She's been the Queen Bee around here for quite awhile and now there's another one to compete with. However, she is nothing but sweet to Ellie and loves her like crazy.
Mia has changed a lot lately too. She talks non-stop - full sentences, stories, etc. She's also found her mischevious streak (I thought I was going to get away without it happening - ha). In the past week, she's poured syrup on the carpet to create a swimming pool for her dolls, and broke into the pantry for some candy while I was showering. She is funny as can be and she knows it too. She sings constantly and has decided that she really likes Katy Perry and Rhianna. If you know me well, you know I'm a country music girl, so this throws me a little. We have afternoon dance parties to all her favorites and I'm slowly learning all the "cool" songs. We Skype a lot with the grandparents and she's become a pro at carrying on a conversation with them. She is a great mommy to her babies and cooks me lots of soup in her kitchen. I'm continually amazed at her memory - she recalls things from months ago and remembers stuff from hearing it just once. Mia is also going to preschool in the fall! We got her acceptance letter a few weeks ago and she'll be going two mornings a week. I can't believe my (first) baby is that old already.
