These days must be documented. You are a strong and independent 2.5 year old. For each time you make us feel like we are losing our minds, there are 3 times that you melt our hearts. Your personality is really showing these days and it is such a perfect blend of mom and dad. Fearless like daddy, easy going like mommy. You really like to take in a scene before engaging it. It only takes a few minutes to asses a situation and then you act quickly and often time with great enthusiasm. We just adore watching you with your brother. You kiss and hug him, hold him, sing to him, laugh, tickle, bring him toys and just thoroughly enjoy having him as your daily audience. He is reaching out to grab anything in sight so we are working on sharing with him. Yesterday, mom took you and Breckin to the children's museum while dad was at work. There was a children's choir singing and you watched in awe while eating raisins as I fed Breckin. You like to play rough...jumping is your favorite. But my goodness you will try anything! You enjoy things that go...cars, trains, planes, motorcycles. You aren't into much girly girl stuff other than shoes and your babies. Oh your babies...2 dolls that you are just the lil mommy to. You rock them and change their diapers and wipe them off and put them night night. It is adorable! Your vocabulary is enormous....I used to count the words you knew but that is impossible now. You will try to say anything we ask and you love singing. We sing all the time and you constantly want music on so you can get your dancing shoes on and "Shake your groove thing." While you do enjoy to play independently, you will gladly jump in with other kids your age. We went to your school buddy Declan's 3rd birthday party and in true Teagan fashion you were shy and then didn't want to leave by the end!
Your hair is absolutely wild but we love it. Curly at the bottom and straight on the top. It makes me sad it might not always be curly but it sure is adorable. I have no clue of your height and weight now but at 2 years you were 37" (99%) and 27.5 lbs (60%). You are growing just fine. One night you will clean your plate and the next night I wonder how you manage to thrive on 2 bites of dinner.
We just love you to pieces. I can't believe you are well on your way to 3 but it's true. This winter will be gone soon and we just can't wait to get you back to the parks, in the pool, running in the grass, kicking the balls, riding your bikes. I know you will be our little girl for some time to come. After all, you made us parents and we are learning together. Stay cool little lady!
Love,
Mom and Dad
