a little about reese

our sweet reese on her birthday


we sure love our little reese!  here's a little about her at the ripe old age of two.
 
  • reese is a very content little thing.  she always was as a baby and still is today. we love how chill and relaxed she is.
  • reese loves to color, dress-up, play with her siblings, play with her dollhouse and pretend to read.
  • when reese eats breakfast she thinks she needs three bowls of cereal and two to three different drinks in front of her.  she honestly can't decide what she wants for breakfast.  she'll make a choice then see that someone else has something better, and of course, she has to have it!
  • reese loves to pat her belly and say, "chunky!!"
  • she's a smartie!  she was a very early talker.  we've never had such an early talker before, so it's been fun being able to communicate with a young one so easily. 
  • reese refuses to walk up or down the stairs herself.  she'll sit at the top or bottom for a long time just waiting for someone to pick her up and do the work for her.
  • reese adores her siblings, seriously adores them and wants to be just like all of them.
  • reese can entertain herself so well!  i'll often find her alone in her bedroom or in tanner's room playing with ponies, her dollhouse, little petshop or just reading books to herself.
  • some of reese's favorite sayings are: hold you, it's too boring (she says this when she doesn't want to do something), i not go to bed, i want to color.
  • reese mostly does what her siblings tell her to.  maybe that's a third kid thing?  for example, the kids love to pretend to race up and down our living room.  katelyn and tanner have told her so many times that she lost while racing that now when she races, she automatically yells out loudly, "i lose!" 
  • reese does not mind wearing skirts, tights or leggings, but as soon as you put jeans on her she'll say, "no pants!"
  we really just adore our little reese.  happy birthday to our little girl!

She is adorable! So glad I clicked on your blog! It's so fun to see your updates! Your kids are adorable. I love the cupcake idea for Reese's b-day! So cute and practical. I did great 2-year old b-day cakes for Ry and Abby, Cam and Jake, but since then, I'm all about letting them decorate. Those are some of my favorite memories from being a kid!

Where in the world did you get that adorable map of America for your playroom wall? It's so great!
