Numero dos

7:44 PM

Feb 23rd marks birthday number 2 for Evelyn. Most of her birthday I spent babysitting for a friend with 2 little boys. One of them happened to be Evelyn's age and they have a love/hate relationship.......but more of a hate one. They both just look at each other and it turns into a cat fight. I don't get it.


Our plans for the night was to get pizza and then go onto the BYU basketball game. We had vouchers for free tickets  but I underestimated the Jimmer hype and the whole game was sold out. Actually all the games are sold out and have been for awhile. So instead we enjoyed our pizza and game from home which turned out to be way more relaxing. Then during halftime we gave Evelyn her Elmo cupcakes, which I had quickly made that afternoon while the kids were napping. I had been debating for a while on how to make the cupcakes and it was more of a feat than I expected but it was still so fun to see her light up when she saw them. It made me really excited when she knew right away that it was Elmo.....phew!


We also have a hidden talent of singing in our family.....can you tell?


What she does at 2:
-Right when she wakes up she yells either "mommy" or "daddy" over and over again. This makes it easier for Bryan and I when we are deciding whose turn it is to go get her.

-When we kneel down for prayers, she goes around and "checks" our pants to see if we have a dirty diaper

-Is great at saying "no"

-Loves to help put the dishes in the dishwasher and do other daily chores

-When you ask her "what is her name" she replys "Iyah" (pronounced: Eye-yah) Not sure where that came from. (you can kind of hear her say it in the video above)

-she loves, Loves, LOVES Elmo

-She always says "buh, bye"  to the food we put away in the refrigerator or pantry. (that just shows you how much she LOVES her food)

-Just went to the doctor to find out she is 25% in weight and height. But 50% in her head circumference. My child has a nice large brain :)

-HAPPY BIRTHDAY EVELYN! We love you oh so much!
